1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
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.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
Compost
Premium compost packed with organic nutrients—perfect for revitalizing tired soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth. Ideal for mixing into garden beds, raised beds, and landscapes needing a natural boost.
3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.

Why Newman Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Newman, with a city population of 12,680, sits inside a broader regional market that influences both material availability and project trends. A steady growth rate of 0.40% annually points to modest, ongoing demand for home improvements, infill construction, and yard upgrades rather than a sudden building boom. Local climate plays a direct role: 204 sunny days per year combined with 49.77 inches of annual rainfall and a USDA hardiness zone of 9a mean homeowners balance sun exposure with strong seasonal moisture. That mix increases the need for reliable drainage aggregates, erosion-control soils, weather-resistant surfacing, and moisture-retaining mulches. For homeowners and contractors in Newman, this translates into demand for a range of bulk materials—dirt, sand, gravel, stone, and organic amendments—that perform well through both dry spells and heavy rains. Those local weather and soil patterns create specific performance requirements. Repeated wet-dry cycles can cause settling and erosion, while abundant sun accelerates surface drying and UV exposure; both affect how materials compact, drain, and age. Homeowners should prioritize permeability for driveways and paths, stable base materials for hardscapes, and soil blends that support local plant palettes. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you to suppliers who source regionally appropriate materials, offering guidance on quantities and delivery timing, and making it easier to choose products that match Newman's climate and construction needs.Popular Projects in Newman This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Newman Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Newman.
There is no single best material for every driveway; the right choice depends on traffic, budget, and drainage needs. In Newman’s hot, dry climate, many homeowners choose a stable, well-draining base and a durable surface — consider mixes from gravel, sand, dirt, stone as a system rather than one product. Use a compacted base for vehicles and ask our team for recommendations based on your expected use and slope.
Delivery cost depends on material type, distance from the supplier, amount ordered, and access complexity. Hello Gravel offers transparent quotes that include material price plus delivery; note minimum orders (3 tons) and that some rural or difficult-access sites may incur extra fees. Get a quote online or contact our team to see exact pricing for your address.
Materials that shed water and resist breaking down in heat tend to perform well in hot, dry climates. Combining a stable base with well-draining surface materials from gravel, sand, dirt, stone helps prevent rutting and erosion while keeping dust and compaction manageable. Regional sourcing means product color and texture will vary, so request local samples or photos if appearance matters.
Spring and fall are often ideal for outdoor work because temperatures are mild and rain is less likely to disrupt grading and compaction. Deliveries are available year-round, but plan ahead during busy seasons and schedule with at least a few days' lead time; standard delivery requires 2+ business days and next-day options may be available with a fee. If ground conditions are wet or frozen, installers may need to delay work for best results.
Yes—local suppliers and contracted haulers typically deliver to both rural and residential addresses in Newman, using dump trucks (often tri-axle). Delivery is subject to safe truck access, driveway strength, overhead clearance, and local restrictions; drivers will assess the site on arrival and additional charges can apply for tight access or long-distance offloading. Add access notes at checkout and contact us if you have concerns about delivery access.
Measure the area (length x width) and determine desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards using: cubic yards = (length x width x depth_in_feet) / 27. Most aggregates convert to tons at roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on material density, so check the product page or ask our team for the exact conversion. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact us with your dimensions for a quick estimate.
Prices vary by material, availability, and delivery distance; as a general guideline, many bulk materials fall in a broad range (for example, roughly $20 to $60 per cubic yard or $25 to $80 per ton). Final cost depends on the specific product, seasonal demand, and any delivery or access fees, so request a local quote for an accurate price. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing for your zip code before you buy.
Durable options for high-traffic areas typically include angular, compactable materials used as a base topped with a harder wearing surface to resist rutting and displacement. Think in systems—start with a stable base layer from gravel, sand, dirt, stone blends and finish with a surface chosen for grip and longevity. Proper compaction and drainage are as important as material choice for lasting performance.
It depends on the job: gravel and stone mixes are generally better for drainage, pathways, and areas that need stability, while sand is useful for leveling, bedding pavers, or improving soil texture in specific spots. Often projects use both—coarser material for drainage and a finer material for finish or leveling. Consider the function (drainage, compaction, appearance) and ask our team to recommend a blend suited to Newman’s conditions.
Hello Gravel connects Newman homeowners to local suppliers and haulers so you can order common bulk materials—gravel, sand, dirt, stone—online and arrange delivery to your address. For installation, many local contractors and landscapers offer spreading, grading, and compaction services; we can help point you to nearby partners or you can request professional installation through local service providers. Check your zip code on our site for availability and get a quote to start.

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.
