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 Rio Vista Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rio Vista homeowners are working in a small but active community—Rio Vista has a city population of 9,206 and sits inside a metro area of 2.5+ million that is pushing steady development. With an annual growth rate of 2.17%, local building and landscaping projects are common as owners update driveways, patios, and yards. The climate here—228 sunny days per year, a hardiness zone of 8b, and annual rainfall of 33.20 inches—means outdoor spaces must handle strong sun and occasional heavy rain. That combination increases demand for dependable aggregates: gravel that improves drainage, forms a stable base for pavers and driveways, and reduces erosion on sloped lots. Homeowners choose quality gravel to get durable surfaces that perform through seasonal swings and ongoing local construction activity.Popular Projects in Rio Vista This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rio Vista gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rio Vista.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but delivered gravel in the Arizona region typically falls in a moderate range. Expect quotes to depend on type (crushed stone, decomposed granite, road base), local availability, and delivery distance; request a live quote on our site for an exact delivered price to Rio Vista. Hello Gravel can show current supplier rates and available delivery options for your zip code.
Assuming a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway, you would need about 1.7 tons (1.23 yd^3) at 2 inches, 2.5 tons (1.85 yd^3) at 3 inches, and 3.3 tons (2.47 yd^3) at 4 inches. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order, so a 3-inch order would usually round up to 3 tons and leave a small leftover. If your driveway dimensions differ, use area x depth to calculate cubic yards and multiply by about 1.35 tons per cubic yard for a quick estimate.
Using a common conversion of about 1.35 tons per cubic yard, 12 tons is roughly 8.9 cubic yards or 240 cubic feet. That covers about 1,440 sq ft at 2 inches, 960 sq ft at 3 inches, and 720 sq ft at 4 inches. Actual coverage can vary slightly by stone type and compaction, so plan on a small overage for settling.
A full dump truck load (varies by truck but often 10–15 tons) pricing depends on the material, local supplier rates, and distance to the site. Costs can be lower per ton than small loads because a full truck is more efficient, but final pricing varies—contact Hello Gravel for current truckload pricing and exact delivery fees to Rio Vista. Remember standard delivery timing is 2+ business days and next-day delivery may be available for an extra fee.
A typical half-ton pickup often carries about 1/2 to 1 cubic yard (roughly 0.7–1.35 tons depending on material), so one pickup load may or may not hold a full ton safely. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order for our dump-truck deliveries, so for one-ton needs you may need to pick up material from a local landscape yard or arrange a smaller local supplier delivery. Ask our team for local options or referrals if you only need a pickup load.
Yes, buying larger quantities usually lowers the price per ton because trucking and mobilization costs are spread out. Typical savings appear when you order full truckloads or many tens of tons, though exact breakpoints depend on local suppliers and material type. Request a bulk quote through Hello Gravel to see the best price tiers for your Rio Vista project.
Common lower-cost options in Arizona include crusher run (road base) and some decomposed granite blends, since they are widely available and compact well for driveways. Recycled materials like crushed concrete or recycled asphalt can also be cost-effective but may vary in appearance and drainage. Regional sourcing means availability and price will vary, so check local options through our platform.
Costs depend heavily on width and depth; for example, a 1,000 ft long driveway at 12 ft wide and 3 inches deep needs roughly 150 tons of gravel. With material and delivery rates varying by supplier, a broad materials-only estimate might range from several thousand to over ten thousand dollars; contact Hello Gravel for an accurate quote based on your dimensions, preferred material, and delivery logistics. Long drives can often get better per-ton pricing because they require multiple full truckloads.
Local sources to check include nearby quarries, municipal road projects, construction site leftover listings, online classifieds, and landscape recycling yards; some homeowners find free fill via local listings. Recycled material can be suitable for driveways if it compacts well and drains properly, but quality and consistency vary, so inspect samples before use. If in doubt, request a sample or a supplier recommendation from Hello Gravel to confirm suitability for Rio Vista conditions.
Lower-cost alternatives include crusher fines (compacted small particles), recycled asphalt, crushed concrete, and some decomposed granite blends; these options can perform well for driveways and paths when compacted. Each alternative has trade-offs in dust, drainage, and long-term maintenance, so choose based on usage and budget. Use our site to compare available materials and get delivery pricing for Rio Vista.
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.
