One ton of gravel covers about 80 square feet at a 3-inch depth, or about 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth. Coverage changes with gravel size and compaction, so measure your area and desired depth before ordering.

For a 1,000 sq ft area at a common driveway depth of 3 inches, plan on about 12 to 13 tons of gravel. If you only need a 2-inch topping, 8 to 9 tons is typical; always round up and account for compaction and grade changes.

For driveways in the Memphis, FL area, a compacting mix like 3/4u0022 crushed stone or crusher-run (stone with fines) is commonly recommended because it locks together and sheds water. In sandy Florida soils it also helps to install a geo-fabric and consider a thicker base to reduce rutting during wet seasons.

Florida's frequent rain and sandy subgrades mean drainage and compaction matter more than in drier regions; choose aggregates that drain well and bind when compacted. For low spots use coarser stone under a finer topping, and consider edging to keep material from migrating into yard or storm drains.

Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color, texture, and gradation can vary by supplier and region, so the delivered gravel may not match photos exactly. If you have a strong color or texture preference, note it in the Order Notes and contact our team before ordering for guidance.
