Materials Available for Delivery
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Red Shredded Mulch
Red shredded bark and wood from hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. Good for gardening and landscaping. Helps hold moisture, block weeds, and adds a bold, red pop to your outdoors.
3/4″ Crushed Stone
A reliable, clean ¾” crushed granite or limestone with many applications. Great for gravel driveways, concrete mixes, landscaping applications, and backfilling retaining walls or around foundations.

Why Moraga Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Moraga is a community of 15,338 residents experiencing steady, manageable growth at about 0.40% annually. That sort of steady expansion tends to mean more homeowner remodeling and selective new construction rather than rapid sprawl, so demand often centers on quality repairs, landscape upgrades, and targeted hardscape projects. Moraga’s climate—about 204 sunny days a year and 49.77 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 9a—creates a mix of needs: materials must perform in both dry, sun-exposed summers and wet, reactive winters. For homeowners that means choosing bulk supplies that balance drainage, erosion control, and moisture retention. Gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and landscape stone each play roles: from base material for patios and permeable driveways to topsoil mixes for planting beds and mulch for moisture management. Sourcing the right grades and quantities matters here because regional geology and weather affect texture, color, and performance.Popular Projects in Moraga This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Moraga Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Moraga.
Homeowners in Moraga typically order a range of materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, stone for driveways, paths, garden beds, and drainage. These materials are chosen for their function—base layers, top surfaces, drainage, or soil amendment—so pick types that match the purpose rather than appearance alone. Regional sourcing means color and texture can vary, so check product notes and photos before ordering.
On Moraga’s hilly lots, prioritize drainage and erosion control when choosing materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone. Coarser, well-draining aggregates are generally better for preventing runoff, while finer materials can help with compaction where needed; often a layered approach works best. Consider combining materials with erosion-control measures such as terracing, retaining walls, or geotextile fabric and consult a contractor for steeper slopes.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area (in feet) and use the formula: cubic yards = (length x width x depth in feet) / 27. Convert cubic yards to tons using a typical regional factor or our online calculator; local materials vary by density so the calculator or supplier estimate is more accurate. Remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and order a bit extra for compaction and waste.
Moraga’s Mediterranean climate favors scheduling delivery and installation in late spring through early fall when conditions are drier and contractors are available. Winters are wetter and can delay work or make sites muddy, so plan for fewer deliveries then and allow more lead time. Book deliveries at least a few weeks ahead for busy seasons and consider week-day slots for easier access.
Pricing varies with distance, material, and truck access; Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and many areas see free or low-cost standard delivery, while some locations incur delivery fees typically in a modest range. Next-day delivery is available for an extra fee if ordered before noon CST, and unusual access or long haul distances can increase charges. Exact fees appear at checkout so you can compare options before purchasing.
Some Moraga streets and steeper neighborhoods may have access limits, narrow lanes, or rules that affect truck delivery and placement of material. Drivers will assess safe unloading on arrival; if curbside or street placement is required it may need permits or fees from the town. Add delivery details in Order Notes and contact our team if you expect tight access so we can coordinate with the supplier and hauler.
Certain projects can require permits—examples include large grading, retaining walls, driveway modifications, or curb/road encroachment for delivery trucks. Routine small deliveries usually do not need a permit, but if you plan to block the street, place material on public property, or perform major earthwork check with the Town of Moraga or Contra Costa County building and public works departments. When in doubt, contact local authorities before ordering and tell our team if you expect permit needs.
Upfront costs and maintenance vary: more durable, well-draining materials often cost more initially but need less upkeep, while softer or organic surfaces have lower startup cost but require regular replenishment. Factor in erosion control, drainage and potential contractor labor when comparing total lifecycle cost. Choosing regionally sourced materials suited to Moraga’s climate usually reduces long-term maintenance needs.
Materials that drain well and resist movement typically need the least upkeep in Moraga’s dry summers and wet winters—well-graded, stable aggregates are one example. Fine, loose materials can migrate, wash out, or need topping up after heavy rain, so pairing material choice with proper edging, grading, and vegetation reduces maintenance. Regular inspections after winter rains will catch issues early.
Coarser aggregates usually provide better drainage and resist being washed away, making them a good choice for slope stabilization and runoff control. Finer materials compact more densely and can help form a finished surface but may impede drainage if used alone on a slope. A layered approach—coarse drainage layer with a finer finish layer and erosion-control features—often gives the best balance.
Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks; drivers will place material where access and site conditions allow and may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion. Protect driveways and landscaping by clearing an access path and leaving clear delivery instructions in Order Notes; our team will confirm placement details before delivery. If you need to change or cancel an order, contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible so we can work with the supplier and hauler.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
