Gravel delivery in Palm Coast, FL

On average in Palm Coast, 1 ton of gravel will cover about 80 to 100 square feet at a 2-inch depth. If you want a 3-inch finished layer, expect closer to 55 to 70 square feet per ton. Local sandy subgrades here may require a slightly thicker layer to avoid settling, so allow a 5-10% overage.

In the Palm Coast area, clean bulk sand is often priced lower per ton than decorative or crushed gravel, since sand is common on the coast. That said, the final cost depends on freight and type of material; specialty decorative gravels will cost more.

A standard tri-axle dump truck in our network usually carries about 12 to 15 cubic yards, which translates to roughly 700 to 1,400 square feet at a 2-inch depth, depending on the truck and material. For a 4-inch compacted driveway base, the same truck covers roughly 350 to 700 square feet. Exact coverage depends on material compaction and local delivery truck size, so confirm with your supplier when you order.

For Palm Coast’s sandy soils and heavy-rain events, 2 inches is generally not enough for a driveway; it may work as a decorative topcoat over a well-built base. For a functional driveway you should plan on 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel for light use, and 4 to 6 inches (with a good base) for regular vehicle traffic. Proper base preparation and drainage are especially important here to limit migration and washout.
