Why Wheatland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Wheatland has a city population of 4,600 and sits in a growing West California metro that supports expanding residential and light commercial work. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and small contractors are increasingly investing in property upgrades, driveways, and yard regrading. The local climate—about 235 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rainfall—combined with USDA hardiness zone 8b means landscaping projects must balance drought-tolerant plantings with effective stormwater management. That rising construction and landscaping activity drives demand for dependable aggregates: homeowners want materials that control erosion, improve drainage, and create low-maintenance surfaces without frequent replacement. Gravel is a practical, flexible choice for Wheatland properties because it sheds water, stabilizes drive lanes, and tolerates sunny, variable conditions. Well-graded gravel mixes reduce compaction and improve runoff on soils common to the area, and lighter-colored gravels reflect heat on hot, sunny days. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and vetted haulers so you can order the right gravel size and quantity online, schedule delivery that fits your timeline, and get materials sourced regionally to match Wheatland’s geology and climate.Popular Projects in Wheatland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Wheatland gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Wheatland.
Hello Gravel arranges delivery to Wheatland (pop. 4,600) via local dump-truck fleets, usually tri-axle trucks. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; check your zip code at checkout for supplier availability and precise lead times.
Typical gravel prices in the Wheatland area range roughly $30 to $70 per ton depending on type (pea gravel, crushed rock, decomposed granite) and local supplier economics. Delivery fees vary by supplier and distance; Hello Gravel often shows transparent pricing and many areas get free delivery, but always confirm final price and any haul fees at checkout.
For Wheatland’s hot, dry summers and rainy winters, crushed rock (¾" minus) is a common choice for driveways because it compacts well and sheds water, while pea gravel and decomposed granite work well for walkways, patios, and accents. Use crushed base rock under surface gravel in wetter spots to improve drainage and stability.
Use this quick formula assuming a gravel density of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard: tons = (length(ft) × width(ft) × depth(in) × 1.4) / 324. Add 10-20% for compaction and waste; for example, a 24×40 ft driveway at 3" depth needs about 12.4 tons, so order roughly 14–15 tons to be safe.
Approximate needs at a 3" finished depth: a two-car 24×40 driveway ≈ 12–15 tons, a 50×12 driveway ≈ 8–10 tons, and a 30×10 area ≈ 4–5 tons. If you plan a deeper base (4–6") or expect poor soils, increase your order accordingly.
Yes — Wheatland sits in the Sacramento Valley foothills where clay or silty soils and winter runoff can cause poor drainage and washouts if not addressed. Adding a compacted crushed-rock base, proper slope, edge restraint, and surface drainage (swales or drains) is important to prevent rutting and erosion.
Geotextile fabric is commonly recommended in Wheatland to separate native soil from gravel, reduce mixing, and slow rutting, especially over softer or clay soils. A compacted base aggregate (crushed rock) under the surface layer is also recommended for long-term stability and improved drainage.
Expect to regrade and topdress a gravel driveway every 1–3 years depending on traffic and drainage; light maintenance like raking and weed control may be seasonal. Material costs to add a fresh 1–2" layer are modest (a few hundred dollars for small areas), while professional regrading or trucking in more material will cost more — get a local quote for precise pricing.
Gravel is typically the lowest upfront installed cost, often about $1–3 per sq ft, asphalt is mid-range around $3–6 per sq ft, and pavers are the most expensive at roughly $10–25 per sq ft depending on design. Long-term maintenance and local contractor rates in Yuba County can change lifecycle costs, so compare quotes and expected upkeep when deciding.
Rules vary: Yuba County or the City of Wheatland may have standards for driveway aprons, curb cuts, and stormwater runoff, and some HOAs set aesthetic requirements on surface materials. Before ordering, check with Wheatland city planning or your HOA to confirm permitted materials, setback rules, and any permit needs.
For small projects many homeowners in Wheatland can DIY gravel delivery and spreading, but contractors are recommended for driveways or sloping sites because they provide grading, compaction, base installation, edge restraint, and proper drainage work. Contractor quotes typically include labor and equipment; compare several bids and ask whether compaction, base rock, edging, and hauling are included.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
