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.
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.
Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
Garden Soil
Premium garden soil enriched with organic matter—essential for vigorous, healthy plant growth. Ideal for filling gardens, building raised beds, and enhancing tired or compacted soil. Fulfillment 20-40% organic is ideal
#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.

Why Nipomo Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Nipomo homeowners face a steady, manageable pace of residential change: a city population of 21,030 within a metro area of 7.9+ million and a growth rate of 0.40% annually typically means consistent demand for renovations, landscaping updates, and incremental construction rather than sudden booms. The local climate—about 204 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 49.77 inches, and classification in hardiness zone 9a—creates a need for materials that perform through both dry, sunny stretches and significant seasonal moisture. That combination favors versatile bulk supplies: free-draining aggregates for low spots, structured soils and amendments for planting beds, erosion-control blends on slopes, and stable surfacing for driveways and walkways. For homeowners, sourcing quality bulk materials helps projects resist weather extremes, limit maintenance, and align with local planting and drainage practices.Popular Projects in Nipomo This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Nipomo Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Nipomo.
Homeowners and contractors in Nipomo commonly order gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, patios, drainage projects, garden beds, and base material under pavers. These materials are versatile and used both as structural bases and as decorative top layers depending on the project.
Choose a material based on the project's function: load-bearing areas need denser base mixes, drainage features need free-draining aggregates, and garden or decorative areas prioritize color and texture. Consider depth, slope, expected traffic, and local soil conditions, and use a material calculator or contact our team for help matching materials to your needs.
Nipomo's coastal Mediterranean climate (wet winters and dry summers) and local sandy or loamy soils mean drainage is important and some materials can wash or shift in heavy rain. Pick materials that drain well for slopes and low-lying areas, and plan erosion control or compaction where summer wash or winter runoff is likely.
Plan major deliveries and outdoor work for the drier months when possible and avoid scheduling right before expected heavy rain; wet conditions can make site access difficult and slow compaction. Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, and next-day options are often available if ordered early, so schedule with local weather in mind.
Use the rule: cubic yards = (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324 to convert area and depth into cubic yards, then use a material-to-weight guide to convert to tons if needed. Typical examples: a 100 sq ft patio at 4 inches needs about 1.2 cubic yards, and a two-car driveway at 4 inches may need roughly 4.5 to 5.5 cubic yards; always add 5-10% for compaction and grading waste.
Minimum orders are commonly around 3 tons, and deliveries are made by dump trucks (typically tri-axle), so you need a stable drop zone and enough turning or backing room for a large truck. Tell us about narrow gates, overhead lines, steep driveways, or sensitive landscaping when you order so we can coordinate the safest drop location and any access fees if applicable.
Prices vary by material, local availability, and haul distance, but delivered costs in the West California region commonly range broadly—many projects fall in the tens to low hundreds of dollars per ton or per cubic yard. For a reliable estimate, get an online quote or use our material calculator since exact pricing depends on material type, delivery distance, and any additional services.
Drivers may be able to perform limited tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this service at checkout but the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. Because spreading depends on truck type, access, and site conditions, there is no guarantee this service will be performed.
Some projects may require city or county permits or HOA approval—especially new driveways, significant grading, or changes that affect drainage or setback lines. Check with Nipomo's local planning office and your HOA before ordering, and note that you are responsible for complying with local rules and obtaining any necessary permits.
Clear the drop area of vehicles and obstacles, mark underground utilities and fragile landscaping, and identify the preferred dump location for the driver. Provide a contact number, confirm access instructions at checkout, and expect the driver to perform a safety assessment on arrival that may change the final drop spot.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
