Common bulk gravel in Florida typically runs about $20–$45 per ton, while decorative or specialty gravels can cost $50–$90 per ton. Everglades City’s remote location and local supplier availability can push prices toward the higher end, so get an exact quote in checkout for the most accurate price.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, so you can order less than a full truck as long as you meet that minimum. If you need smaller quantities (bags or less than 3 tons), check local retailers or pick-up options, or contact our team to see if suppliers nearby can help.

Delivery cost depends on supplier location, access, and distance to Everglades City; some areas have free delivery while remote deliveries may incur a fee. Delivery fees commonly range from $0 up to $200+ for farther hauls—request a quote with your zip code to see exact delivery charges.

A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft. At 3 inches (0.25 ft) depth you need about 100 cubic feet, which is roughly 3.7 cubic yards or about 5.2 tons; allow 10–15% extra for compaction and waste, so plan on about 6 tons.

Two inches is generally too thin for a vehicle driveway—it's fine for a walking path or temporary surface but will rut and scatter under car traffic. For a residential driveway in Everglades City’s wet, sandy environment we recommend 3–4 inches compacted over a firm base, and 4–6 inches for heavier vehicles.

Coverage depends on depth: at 2 inches 1 ton covers about 110–120 sq ft, at 3 inches about 75–80 sq ft, and at 4 inches about 55–60 sq ft. These are estimates—actual coverage varies with the gravel type and compaction, so round up and order a little extra for edges and settling.

Buying in bulk (tons) is almost always cheaper per ton than bagged material, and picking up directly from a local quarry avoids delivery fees. With Hello Gravel you get competitive bulk pricing plus managed delivery; to save, choose common crushed stone or screened fill instead of decorative gravels and compare supplier quotes.

For a 20 ft by 10 ft driveway (200 sq ft) at 3 inches depth you need about 2.6 cubic yards or roughly 3.7–4 tons with a waste allowance. Material cost might be $75–$200 and delivered total typically $100–$400 depending on material type and delivery distance to Everglades City—get a precise quote in checkout.

Because Everglades City has a small population and is relatively remote, expect more variation in delivery fees and material availability than in larger metros. Note local soil is often sandy and wet; request a compacted base or thicker depth for driveways, add order notes for color preferences, and contact our team early to confirm delivery windows and access conditions.
