Gravel delivery in Santa Monica, CA and five other materials
Six materials are available for Santa Monica addresses. Cubic yards apply to mulch and compost, while pea gravel, premium screened topsoil, fill dirt and garden soil are measured in tons. Each page below shows its own unit and the delivered price for your ZIP.
- Mulch: a surface layer for planting beds and tree wells that holds moisture and keeps weeds down.
- Premium Screened Topsoil: screened loam for leveling lawns, patching bare spots and filling raised planters.
- Pea Gravel: small rounded stone for paths, patios, drainage trenches and play areas.
- Compost: finished organic matter to work into tired soil before you plant.

How orders work on a Westside lot
The smallest order is 2 tons for the ton-based materials and 2 cubic yards for mulch and compost. Santa Monica lots are often compact, so think about where the truck can stop before you order. Tell us the drop spot in your order notes, ideally a driveway or an open curb with no low wires or branches overhead.
The price you see is a delivered price for your ZIP, and it already covers getting the load to your address. Bigger orders bring the rate per unit down, so a single large load usually costs less per ton or yard than two small ones.

Local conditions that affect the job
and mulch earn their keep in beds that dry out quickly. Many properties have patios, planters and narrow side yards, which suits smaller loads of pea gravel or garden soil. If a job needs heavy fill, confirm that your project and any permits allow the grade change before the load arrives.
Matching the load to the project
A homeowner re-doing a courtyard needs a very different load than a contractor finishing several condo landscapes on the same street. For small residential jobs, 2 tons of pea gravel goes a long way across a side path or a drainage strip. Larger planting jobs usually call for several cubic yards of mulch or compost, and ordering them together in one go avoids paying a smaller-volume rate twice.
It also helps to keep materials out of the street. Plan to move the pile onto your property soon after it lands, and cover loose soil if wind or rain is expected.
Questions to settle before ordering
- How deep do you want the layer, and over what area?
- Is there room on your property for the whole pile?
- Does an HOA or building manager need to approve the delivery?
With about 90,000 residents and a dense street grid, Santa Monica deliveries go smoothest when the drop area is clear on the day.
How much do you need?
Work out your material
A planning figure, not a guarantee. Order roughly a tenth extra to cover settling and uneven ground.

Can I get gravel delivered to my home in Santa Monica?
Yes. Pea gravel is sold by the ton and delivered to Santa Monica addresses, along with five other landscape materials. Enter your ZIP on the product page and you will see the delivered price for your address, with no separate delivery line added at checkout.
What is the smallest load I can order?
The smallest order is 2 tons for pea gravel, topsoil, fill dirt and garden soil, and 2 cubic yards for mulch and compost. This keeps each trip worthwhile for the truck, and it is plenty for a typical backyard path or a few raised beds.
How do I know what a load will cost?
Santa Monica buyers can enter their ZIP on any material page. The live price engine returns the delivered price for that address, so there is nothing to estimate by hand. Ordering more of a material lowers the rate per unit, which is worth knowing if you are planning several projects.
Which materials are sold by the cubic yard?
Only mulch and compost are measured in cubic yards here. Pea gravel, premium screened topsoil, fill dirt and garden soil are sold by the ton. Each product page states its own unit so you never have to guess which one applies.
What if parking is tight on my Santa Monica street?
On dense Westside blocks, check whether a permit, a parking restriction or an HOA rule affects where a truck can stop. Sort that out before delivery day, and ask neighbors to keep the curb in front of your property clear while the load arrives.
Do you deliver to cities near Santa Monica?
Yes. Nearby cities include Hawthorne, Redondo Beach, Gardena, Los Angeles and Huntington Park. Availability depends on the delivery ZIP, so type yours in on a product page and the site will confirm it right away.
Is topsoil or garden soil better for a vegetable bed?
Garden soil is the blend made for planting beds and containers, so it suits vegetables and flowers. Premium screened topsoil works better for leveling lawns and filling larger areas. Many people top a bed with compost or mulch afterward.
Can one order include more than one material?
Yes, but they are placed separately. Say you want gravel for a side path in Santa Monica and mulch for the beds: you would check out each from its own product page, where the unit and quantity are set to suit that material. Neither order has to wait on the other.
