Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Apache Junction Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Apache Junction, with a city population of 90,335, sits in a growing pocket of West Arizona expanding at about 2.00% annually. The city’s climate—228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall—and its hardiness zone of 8b influence how homeowners approach landscaping, drainage, and exterior projects. As housing and outdoor improvements continue, demand for reliable aggregates rises: residents need materials that perform under intense sun, move water effectively during occasional heavy storms, and stand up to local soil conditions. Gravel is frequently chosen because it improves surface drainage, reduces erosion on slopes, and creates permeable, low-maintenance driveways and paths that use less water than lawns or paved surfaces. Local sourcing also delivers color and texture that blend with the surrounding desert environment.Popular Projects in Apache Junction This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Apache Junction gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Apache Junction.
Prices vary by type and supplier, but in Arizona a ton of common gravel typically ranges from about $30 to $70 per ton. Local factors in Apache Junction (regional rock type, color, and availability) affect price, and Hello Gravel shows upfront local pricing and delivery costs when you enter your zip code.
Yes, buying bulk gravel is usually cheaper per ton than bagged material. Keep in mind Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and delivery and truck fees can affect total savings, so compare per-ton price plus delivery for your Apache Junction job.
A tri-axle dump truck load commonly carries about 10 to 14 tons (roughly 7 to 10 cubic yards) and the total price depends on the gravel type and local supplier. Expect large-load costs to vary widely (roughly a few hundred to over a thousand dollars); request a quote via Hello Gravel for an exact local price and delivery fee.
Coverage depends on depth: a tri-axle load of about 10 tons (≈7 cubic yards) will cover roughly 1,100 sq ft at 2 inches depth or about 750 sq ft at 3 inches depth. Loads vary by truck and material density, so provide your area and desired depth when getting a quote to get a precise coverage estimate for Apache Junction.
No, 2 inches total is generally not enough for a driveway. For a stable driveway in Apache Junction's desert climate you should install a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed rock and then a 1 to 2 inch surface layer for wear and drainage, with compaction recommended between layers.
Costs depend on width, depth, and material. For example, a 20 ft by 20 ft driveway (400 sq ft) at 3 inches depth needs about 3.7 cubic yards (≈5 to 6 tons); at local per-ton prices this could run several hundred dollars for material plus delivery and any spreading/compaction labor—get a tailored quote from Hello Gravel for exact pricing.
A common choice is 3/4-inch crushed stone or 'crusher run' (crushed stone with fines) for the base because it compacts well, with a finer top layer like 3/8-inch for smoothing. Local suppliers in Apache Junction may offer decomposed granite for a more natural look, but crushed angular stone usually performs better for vehicle traffic.
Locally sourced materials like crusher run, bank-run gravel, or recycled concrete tend to be the least expensive options because hauling costs are lower. Price is tied to local availability in Apache Junction, so Hello Gravel can show the most cost-effective options in your area when you enter your zip code.
Avoid pea gravel where traction and stability matter, such as main driveways, steep slopes, or areas with heavy vehicle traffic, because it shifts under tires and feet. In Apache Junction's occasional heavy washes, pea gravel can move more easily, so choose angular crushed stone for driveways and sloped areas.
Gravel is naturally rounded rock often taken from riverbeds, while crushed stone is mechanically crushed and has angular edges that lock together for better compaction. For most Apache Junction driveways and paths, crushed stone is preferred because it compacts and drains better than rounded 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.
