Why Wrightwood Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Wrightwood, a close-knit mountain community with a city population of 4,770, is seeing steady homeowner demand as it grows at about 1.04% annually. With 228 sunny days each year, 34.25 inches of rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local yards balance sun-tolerant plantings with seasonal runoff and slope-driven erosion. That mix of sun, rain, and terrain makes durable, well-draining aggregates essential for common projects—driveways, drainage swales, walkways, and retaining-wall backfill. Homeowners choose quality gravel to prevent rutting after storms, improve surface drainage, and create low-maintenance landscape beds that reflect the area’s geology and aesthetic. Gravel performs especially well in Wrightwood’s environment because its permeability helps manage episodic rainfall while abundant sun reduces long-term freeze-thaw stress. Angular crushed grades lock together on slopes for stability, and decorative mixes soften hardscape while allowing water to pass. Hello Gravel simplifies sourcing the right local material by connecting you with nearby suppliers, showing transparent pricing, and scheduling delivery by local dump-truck fleets. Minimum orders start at 3 tons; standard delivery requires 2+ business days, with a next-day option available before noon CST for an additional fee. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion. We coordinate regional materials and logistics so Wrightwood homeowners get gravel suited to their drainage and landscaping needs.Popular Projects in Wrightwood This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Wrightwood gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Wrightwood.
A typical tri-axle dump truck serving Wrightwood carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards (roughly 13 to 16 tons) of gravel, though exact loads vary by truck and local supplier. Costs depend on material type and mountain delivery; expect material plus delivery to range widely—commonly $60 to $150 per cubic yard in mountain areas like Wrightwood—so check your zip code for precise pricing and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum.
Wrightwood sits in the San Gabriel Mountains, which means local gravel often reflects hard, angular rock suited for good drainage and traction. The mountain climate (higher elevation and winter snow) makes crushed, angular aggregates a better choice for driveways and walkways than rounded river rock.
#57 gravel is a 3/4" to 1/2" crushed stone mix commonly used for driveways, walkways, and drainage because it compacts well and drains. In Wrightwood, #57 is a popular choice for top layers and drainage trenches because its angular particles resist shifting in snowy and sloped conditions.
One cubic yard of gravel covers about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth. For common local depths: 2 inches covers roughly 150 sq ft, 3 inches about 100 sq ft, and 4 inches about 75 sq ft — adjust for slopes and compaction when ordering.
No, 2 inches is generally not enough for a driveway in Wrightwood. For a durable driveway in mountainous conditions we recommend at least 4 to 6 inches of compacted base material plus 2 to 3 inches of a top wearing layer, especially to handle snow, freeze/thaw, and vehicle traffic.
Cost depends on driveway width, depth, material type, and delivery. For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at a 4-inch compacted depth you would need about 2.5 cubic yards; using local mountain delivery and material rates, expect the material plus delivery to commonly fall in the low hundreds to several hundred dollars — get a zip-code specific quote from Hello Gravel for an accurate price.
Prices vary regionally, but crushed stone (angular, processed) is often slightly more expensive than natural rounded gravel because of crushing and screening. In Wrightwood the deciding factor is performance: crushed stone performs better on slopes and in snow, so many homeowners choose it even if unit cost is a bit higher.
One-inch material is usually called 1" crushed stone or 1" minus if it includes smaller fines. In Wrightwood it is used for base layers, drainage beds, and areas needing good load-bearing and drainage, but the exact local name may vary by supplier.
Yes, Wrightwood sees winter snow and storms that can delay deliveries or require rescheduling; steep or snow-covered driveways can also limit safe dumping. Hello Gravel offers scheduled delivery windows and recommends planning deliveries outside major storms and noting access conditions in your order notes.
Collecting rocks on private property is up to the landowner, but removing rocks or gravel from public lands and national forests (including parts of the Angeles National Forest near Wrightwood) is often restricted or requires a permit. Check federal and state rules before collecting material and consider ordering from a licensed supplier to ensure legal and consistent material.
Grizzly bears are not present in Southern California; the local wildlife concern would be black bears, coyotes, and other animals. These animals do not typically interact with stored gravel, but secure storage and keeping delivery notes clear of food or trash are sensible practices.
Landscape and construction gravel offered to homeowners in Wrightwood is sourced for aggregates and is not a source of gold. While the wider region has historical gold occurrences, commercial gravel and crushed stone are processed and screened for construction use and you should not expect any recoverable minerals.
Detecting gold in creeks requires specific prospecting techniques—look for heavy black sand in inside bends and behind large rocks—but many creeks near Wrightwood are on public lands with rules against removing material. If you are interested in small-scale prospecting, check permitting rules with the Angeles National Forest and use a pan or metal detector responsibly and legally.
Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum; for most Wrightwood driveways you will likely need at least that amount, but steeper or longer driveways require more. Measure length, width, and desired depth, use the material calculator, and mention any steep access or narrow roads at checkout so your supplier can plan an appropriate truck size.
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.
