Why Pleasant Hills Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Pleasant Hills has a city population of 9,000 and sits within a metro area of 2.6+ million, a context that supports steady demand for home improvement and new construction. A 1.80% annual growth rate indicates steady expansion of residential and small commercial projects rather than a sudden boom—meaning homeowners can expect more gradual neighborhood upgrades, driveway repairs, landscaping refreshes, and infill construction over time. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.32 inches, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, the climate allows for frequent outdoor work but requires attention to drainage, material durability, and plant selection. That combination makes reliable bulk materials—gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and decorative stone—especially important for long-term performance, erosion control, and low-maintenance landscapes that stand up to local weather and seasonal cycles.Popular Projects in Pleasant Hills This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Pleasant Hills Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Pleasant Hills.
Homeowners and contractors in Pleasant Hills commonly order gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates for driveways, grading, garden beds, and drainage projects. These materials are chosen for specific uses like base layers, top dressing, or fill, so pick a material based on the function you need rather than appearance alone.
Pleasant Hills experiences freeze-thaw cycles and wet periods that can affect compaction and drainage. Choose materials that promote drainage and resist frost heave for driveways and paths, and consider coarser, well-graded mixes for areas exposed to runoff.
Finer materials and loose top layers generally need more upkeep in hilly, wet climates because they can wash away or compact unevenly. Materials that lock together or compact well typically require less frequent regrading and topping up.
The most reliable window for deliveries and outdoor work in Pleasant Hills is spring through fall when ground conditions are drier and less likely to be frozen. Avoid scheduling heavy material deliveries during freeze-thaw transitions or after heavy rain, and book early in busy seasons to secure preferred dates.
Narrow drives, steep grades, and limited turnaround space can require smaller trucks, split deliveries, or materials placed in multiple spots, which may add time or fees. Provide clear photos and notes at checkout so suppliers and drivers can plan appropriate trucks and routes.
Delivery fees depend on distance from the supplier, order size, truck type, site accessibility, and local fuel costs. Many orders qualify for free delivery in nearby areas, while long hauls or difficult access can add a surcharge; get a quote for the most accurate estimate.
Contractors in Pleasant Hills typically pick materials based on the project function and local soil conditions rather than a single product. For example, they often use well-graded, compactable aggregates for structural bases and coarser drainage mixes where runoff or frost is a concern.
Yes, many HOAs and some municipalities have rules about driveway surfacing, visible material color, dust control, and impervious coverage. Check your HOA guidelines and local ordinances before ordering, and mention any restrictions in your order notes so suppliers can advise on suitable options.
Measure the area (length and width) and decide on the required depth, then convert that volume to cubic yards or tons; most aggregate projects use a depth in inches. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for help, and remember our minimum order is typically 3 tons.
Material-only purchases remove hauling costs but require you to arrange transport, so delivered orders usually cost more overall because they include trucking and handling. For accurate budgeting in Pleasant Hills, request a delivered quote and compare it to local supplier pickup prices while factoring in truck rental or labor if you plan to haul yourself.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on safety, access, and truck type. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess upon arrival whether it can be done safely.
Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery as an option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Check your zip code for availability and reserve your preferred date during checkout to avoid delays.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
