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.
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.

Why Pacific Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Pacific is a growing community of 26,495 residents within a broader metro of 2.5+ million, and steady expansion at 0.40% annually is driving modest but consistent demand for home and property upgrades. Pacific sits in hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, conditions that favor outdoor projects year-round but still require attention to drainage and erosion control. Homeowners and contractors here commonly need reliable aggregates for driveways, pathways, French drains, and garden beds—projects that benefit from consistent material sizing and local availability. Quality gravel reduces maintenance, improves water management, and creates durable surfaces that stand up to Pacific’s seasonal wet spells and heavy sun exposure. Gravel is especially well suited to Pacific’s mix of sun and seasonal rain: angular, well-graded mixes shed water while locking together under traffic, and washed gravels resist mud during wet periods. For patios, driveways, and drainage trenches, choose a blend sized for the intended load and finish—smaller chips for walking surfaces, larger crushed stone for base layers. Hello Gravel connects Pacific homeowners with local suppliers and haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery, and material guidance so you get regionally sourced gravel matched to your project needs.Popular Projects in Pacific This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Pacific gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Pacific.
Many Hello Gravel orders in Pacific are delivered free or for a modest fee, but delivery charges can range roughly from $0 to $150 depending on distance, access, and order size. Optional tailgate spreading is offered at driver discretion and can add $30 to $150 when available; always request spreading at checkout and expect the driver to assess safety on arrival. Minimum order size through Hello Gravel is 3 tons and rates vary by local supplier, so get a quote for exact pricing.
For Pacific’s coastal West California climate, crushed rock (3/4" to 1") is a durable choice for driveways because it compacts well and sheds water. Decomposed granite and pea gravel make attractive paths and low-traffic driveways but may shift more in heavy rain or on slopes, so pair them with proper edging and a compacted base. Choose material based on use, slope, and aesthetic; you can add color preferences in the Order Notes when you check out.
A typical 2-car driveway about 20' x 20' will need roughly 5 tons for a 3" top layer and about 6.5 to 7 tons for a 4" layer; a full rebuild with 6" to 8" of base can require 10 to 14 tons. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers in Pacific so you can get bulk pricing and scheduled delivery—enter your zip code on our site to see local availability and quotes. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so small resurfacing jobs are often covered by a single delivery.
Yes, properly specified gravel performs well for drainage and erosion control on coastal West California terrain because it allows water to infiltrate and reduces concentrated runoff. For slopes or erosion-prone areas combine gravel with geotextile fabric, terraces, or retaining edging and use angular crushed stone to lock particles together. For major erosion issues, consult a local civil or landscape contractor and check local runoff rules before installation.
A well-built gravel driveway in Pacific can last many years with routine maintenance; expect to regrade and add a top-up layer every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and rainfall. Regular maintenance includes removing vegetation, refilling low spots, re-compacting after heavy rains, and ensuring good drainage with side swales or curbing. Salt air near the coast doesn’t harm gravel itself but can accelerate corrosion of metal edging or hardware, so choose materials accordingly.
Gravel is more permeable and cost-effective, drains well in Pacific’s rainy seasons, and is easier to repair or extend; however, it can shift, dust, and requires more maintenance than hard surfaces. Concrete and pavers resist movement and need less frequent topping but cost more up front, can trap heat, and may increase runoff unless designed with permeable units. Consider budget, desired look, drainage needs, and long-term maintenance when choosing a surface.
Yes—many local suppliers and contractors in the Pacific area offer screening, delivery, and compaction services; Hello Gravel will connect you with vetted local suppliers and licensed haulers in your area. Delivery is typically by dump truck (tri-axle) and compaction or screening services are often provided by independent contractors rather than the delivery driver. If you need compaction, request it when you get quotes so we can include local installers in the estimate.
Costs vary by size and finish: crushed rock is generally the most economical, pea gravel is mid-range, and decorative river rock is usually the most expensive per ton because of handling and rarity. Expect relative price differences rather than exact rates—ask for a local Hello Gravel quote to see current per-ton pricing for Pacific suppliers, since regional sourcing and seasonal demand affect cost. We recommend comparing delivered price per ton and coverage to pick the best option for your project.
Yes, gravel is commonly used in permeable driveway systems and can help reduce runoff if installed with an engineered open-graded base and proper subgrade preparation. Local stormwater rules vary, so check Pacific city or county requirements for permeable surfaces, setbacks, and inspection needs before starting. For regulatory compliance and best performance, hire a contractor familiar with local stormwater codes or request recommendations through Hello Gravel.
Professional installation for a gravel driveway in Pacific typically adds costs for base prep, edging, and compaction; expect installation to increase the total price by roughly $2 to $6 per square foot depending on scope and site conditions. For a standard 400 sq ft driveway that could add about $800 to $2,400 on top of material and delivery costs, with steeper prices for difficult access or extensive grading. Get a detailed estimate that separates material, delivery, and labor so you can compare DIY versus hiring pros.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
