Why Sunland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sunland, West California, California has a city population of 17,913 and sits inside a metro area of 2.5+ million residents. With a steady annual growth rate of 0.70% annually, local homeowners and contractors are seeing steady demand for new driveways, landscape upgrades, erosion control, and small construction projects. The climate—225/year sunny days and 34.70 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor work but also creates seasons of heavy runoff and sun exposure that stress landscaping materials. For many Sunland projects, quality gravel is the go-to aggregate because it provides reliable drainage, reduces erosion on slopes, and creates durable, low-maintenance surfaces that stand up to both sun and rain. Homeowners seek consistent, locally sourced gravel to avoid delays, limit dust and washout, and ensure finished areas match regional aesthetics.Popular Projects in Sunland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sunland gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Sunland.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers serving Sunland so pricing reflects local material and hauling. Minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply). Exact cost depends on gravel type, amount, and driveway access; get a zip-code quote on our site or call the team for a specific estimate.
For Sunland's hot, dry conditions, crushed stone (3/4" to 1/2") makes a stable base and crushed 3/8" or fines-on-top give good compaction and traction. Decomposed granite (DG) is popular for a natural look and low water use, but it performs best when compacted and sometimes stabilized. Pea gravel looks attractive but tends to move and is less ideal for steep driveways or heavy traffic.
A common 2-car driveway of about 20' x 20' equals 400 sq ft. At 3 inches depth that is roughly 3.7 cubic yards (about 5 to 6 tons); at 4 inches about 5 cubic yards (7 to 8 tons); at 6 inches about 7.4 cubic yards (10 to 11 tons). Sloped terrain or heavy use may require a thicker base and edging, so plan for the higher end and remember our 3-ton minimum.
Pea gravel can roll and wash on slopes, so it is not ideal without edging or stabilization. Crushed stone locks together and provides better traction and erosion resistance on inclines, especially when combined with a compacted base and edge restraints. Decomposed granite can work well if compacted and sealed or stabilized, but may need erosion control measures on very steep slopes.
Costs vary with prep work, drainage, edging, and materials, but a typical installed gravel driveway for a 2-car area in Sunland often falls between $1,200 and $4,500. Projects toward the lower end are simple top-dress jobs, while the higher end includes full excavation, compacted base, geotextile, and edging. Get a detailed quote that lists base preparation and hauling to compare accurately.
In Sunland's climate expect light maintenance like raking and regrading once a year, with top-ups every 2 to 4 years depending on traffic and rainfall. Typical top-ups for walkways or beds are 1 to 3 tons; delivered material and spreading usually cost a few hundred dollars depending on amount and access. More frequent repairs may be needed after heavy storms or on steep slopes.
Stabilized gravel (resin or grid-stabilized) reduces movement and maintenance while keeping permeability and a lower visual impact, and it usually costs more than loose gravel but less than high-end pavers. Asphalt provides a smooth, durable surface but can soften in extreme heat and needs periodic sealing. Pavers are the most durable and low-maintenance long term but have a higher upfront cost; consider HOA aesthetics, drainage rules, and budget when choosing.
Hello Gravel partners with regional suppliers and haulers serving Sunland and the greater Los Angeles area; availability varies by material and season. Standard delivery is 2+ business days once your order is confirmed, and next-day delivery may be possible if ordered before noon CST for eligible products. Trucks are typically tri-axle dump trucks; include access notes at checkout so suppliers can confirm delivery feasibility.
Rules vary: some Sunland HOAs and Los Angeles County regulations restrict rock color, size, or require permeable surfaces and specific drainage solutions. Always check with your HOA and local permitting office before installation if the project changes front-yard appearance or runoff patterns. If you have questions, our team can help you prepare order notes and documentation for approvals.
Decomposed granite and crushed rock are excellent for xeriscaping because they conserve water, provide good drainage, and complement native plantings. Pea gravel works well for dry paths and accent areas but should be paired with fabric and edging to limit weed growth and movement. Choose lighter colors to reduce heat absorption and note that regional sourcing may change color and texture.
Flag narrow gates, overhead wires, or steep/loose driveways in your order notes so suppliers can plan the right truck and drop point; some sites require smaller truck or manual handling. Tailgate spreading is available at drivers' discretion—request it at checkout but do not assume it will be performed. For steep or narrow sites consider ordering extra material for runoff loss and install edging to help retain gravel.
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.
