Why Rolling Hills Estates Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rolling Hills Estates has a city population of 1.0+ million and sits inside a metro area of 2.5+ million, a region growing at about 0.70% annually. With 228 sunny days each year, 34.32 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners see steady demand for outdoor projects that balance sun tolerance and stormwater management. As new landscaping, driveway repairs, and small construction projects accompany regional growth, homeowners and contractors look for aggregates that deliver reliable drainage, weed suppression, and low-maintenance surfaces. Gravel is a practical choice for many of these needs because it resists rutting, promotes infiltration, and blends with Mediterranean-style plantings common in the area.Popular Projects in Rolling Hills Estates This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rolling Hills Estates gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rolling Hills Estates.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect rough delivered estimates to Rolling Hills Estates of about $35-$70 per ton for crushed rock, $40-$80 per ton for decomposed granite (DG), and $40-$90 per ton for pea gravel. Regional supply, truck access, and order size affect final price, so use these as ballpark ranges and request a zip-code-based quote for an exact number.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve Rolling Hills Estates, so exact vendors depend on your zip code and project size. Our minimum order is typically 3 tons; delivery fees vary by truck access and order size and are often included for larger orders, while small deliveries may carry a modest fee—check availability and fees in checkout or contact our team for a supplier-specific quote.
For steep driveways, angular crushed stone such as 3/4" minus or crush-and-run is preferred because the angular particles lock together and compact well. For erosion control on steeper slopes use larger rock (1"-2" or riprap) or graded rock with erosion blankets and terraces; decomposed granite can work for paths but usually needs stabilizer or edging on slopes to prevent washout.
Measure square feet (length x width) and choose depth in inches, then use: cubic yards = (area ft2 x depth in) / 324. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to convert to tons (gravel density) and add 10%-20% for compaction and waste. Example: a 20'x10' patio at 3" depth = (200 x 3)/324 = 1.85 yd3 x 1.4 = ~2.6 tons, round up and add 10% for safety.
Many Rolling Hills Estates homes are under HOA rules and may require approval for front-yard changes or visible driveway alterations, so check your HOA guidelines first. For structural changes like curb cuts or major grading, contact the City of Rolling Hills Estates or Los Angeles County planning and public works to confirm permit requirements and stormwater or runoff rules before you start.
Contractors in the area typically remove topsoil, establish proper slope and drainage, lay geotextile fabric, then add a compacted base of 4"-6" crusher run in 2" lifts compacted with a plate compactor or roller. A 2"-3" wearing course of angular stone or DG is placed and compacted last, with sturdy edging and, on steeper sites, geogrid or retaining features to prevent lateral migration.
Washed gravel has fines removed so it drains better and looks cleaner, making it a good choice for drainage swales and visible landscaping. Unwashed or crusher-run contains fines that help bind the surface and resist movement, so it works well as a driveway base; recycled material is cost-effective but varies in quality and may contain excessive fines or contaminants, so inspect samples before ordering.
Expect annual tasks like light regrading, topping up high-traffic areas every 2-4 years, seasonal weed control, and occasional dust control or watering to settle fines. Typical homeowner maintenance costs range widely depending on size, but small residential driveways often see $50-$300 per year for weed control and minor top-ups; larger repairs or major replenishment are more costly and less frequent.
Yes—permeable systems are recommended where feasible because they help absorb stormwater and reduce runoff, which is important in the hilly parts of Rolling Hills Estates. Common approaches include open-graded stone over a reservoir layer, geotextile fabric, or gravel within a load-bearing grid; consult local stormwater rules and your contractor to size and detail the system for your slope and soil conditions.
For high-traffic driveways, a compactable base like crush-and-run (crusher run) or 3/4" minus is the most dependable because the fines help bind and lock the surface. Use a top dressing of 3/8" to 3/4" angular crushed stone or stabilized decomposed granite for a finished surface; pea gravel is less ideal for driveways because it moves under vehicle traffic.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
