In West Florida you will commonly see crushed limestone or #57 stone, crusher-run (a mix of stone and fines), pea gravel, river rock, and shell (coquina/shell mix) depending on local quarries. For driveways use crusher-run as a compactable base and 3/4u0022 crushed stone for topcoat; pea gravel or shell are popular for landscaping and coastal aesthetics; coarse crushed stone or washed rock is best where drainage and mud prevention matter.

No, 2 inches is not enough for a driveway—2u0022 is only suitable as a thin top dressing. For a standard residential driveway plan on a well-drained subgrade use 4u0022 of compacted crushed stone for light vehicles, 6u0022 for regular cars and heavier use, and 8u0022+ for frequent heavy trucks or RVs; add a 1-2u0022 wearing course if you want a finer top layer.

Recycled aggregate or crusher-run from local quarries is often the most economical option in West Florida, followed by locally sourced shell mixes near the coast. Prices depend on local supply and trucking distance, so ordering larger quantities and checking Hello Gravel quotes for local suppliers can lower the per-ton cost.

Save by ordering larger bulk quantities, being flexible on delivery timing, picking up at a local quarry if available, and choosing recycled or locally sourced materials. Also compare material types in our checkout, request quotes for similar options, and avoid special placement requests to keep carrier fees lower.

Spreading and compaction are typically contractor services rather than standard delivery. Hello Gravel drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed; for full installation expect to hire local landscapers or contractors and get written quotes—labor and equipment costs vary by project size and complexity.

A standard tri-axle dump truck in West Florida commonly carries about 10-12 cubic yards. Use this formula to estimate: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324, and convert to tons with a local rule of thumb of about 1.3 tons per cubic yard (actual weight varies by material and moisture).

To estimate gravel: yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. Example: to cover 500 sq ft at 4u0022 depth: (500 x 4) / 324 = about 6.17 cubic yards, which is roughly 8.0 tons using a 1.3 tons/yd conversion; always round up and order extra for compaction and settlement.

Coarse, washed crushed stone (3/4u0022 or similar) and crusher-run over a compacted base with landscape fabric provide the best drainage and reduce mud and insect harborage. Avoid fine, organic mixes in drainage areas; for perimeter and foundation areas use angular crushed stone rather than smooth river rock to limit pest hiding spots.
