Gravel: Built For Sunny, Drainage-Ready Yards • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In DeFuniak Springs
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why DeFuniak Springs Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
DeFuniak Springs has a city population of 20,580 and sits inside a rapidly growing West Florida region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million and a growth rate of 2.50% annually. The area falls in USDA Hardiness Zone 8b, enjoys 228 sunny days per year, and records an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches. That mix of strong sun, sandy local soils, and episodic heavy rain drives steady demand for durable, well-draining aggregates. Homeowners and builders turn to gravel for driveways, walkways, French drains, and erosion control because it stabilizes surfaces, improves runoff management, and holds up under long sun exposure without excessive maintenance.Popular Projects in DeFuniak Springs This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - DeFuniak Springs gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in DeFuniak Springs.
Assuming a single-car width of about 8-9 ft, a 20-ft driveway is roughly 180-200 sq ft. For common depths: 2" = ~1.1-1.2 cubic yards (≈1.5-1.7 tons), 3" = ~1.7-2.0 cu yd (≈2.3-2.8 tons), 4" = ~2.2-2.5 cu yd (≈3.1-3.5 tons). Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so many homeowners in DeFuniak Springs order at least 3 tons to get adequate coverage and meet the minimum.
Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway in West Florida because local sandy soils can shift and wash out. We recommend at least 3-4 inches of compacted surface gravel for light vehicle use, and a 4-6 inch compacted crushed-stone subbase if the existing subgrade is soft. Adding a geotextile fabric under the base can improve stability and drainage in the DeFuniak Springs area.
Local prices vary with material type, supplier, and delivery distance. In West Florida, delivered gravel commonly falls in a broad range, so contact Hello Gravel for an exact, up-to-date quote for DeFuniak Springs; we will show price per ton and per cubic yard at checkout. Requesting a live quote is the most reliable way to see current local pricing.
Cost depends on the truck size, amount, and local delivery fees; a tri-axle dump typically carries about 10-14 cubic yards and pricing will reflect both material and hauling. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery pricing and can provide an itemized quote for your address in DeFuniak Springs. For small jobs remember our 3-ton minimum and that delivery fees may be waived in many areas.
A 7x14 dump trailer typically carries roughly 4-6 cubic yards depending on side height and how full it is. A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10-14 cubic yards (larger end-dumps can carry 14-16 cu yd). Use these ranges when planning deliveries for DeFuniak Springs projects and ask Hello Gravel which truck type your order will use.
Costs depend on desired depth, material type, and current local rates. For a 20x10-ft driveway at 4" depth you need about 2.5 cubic yards (~3.5 tons); using local delivered pricing will give the material cost, and delivery is often included or quoted separately. For an accurate install estimate including spreading labor and any base work, request a quote from Hello Gravel with your address and desired depth.
For most DeFuniak Springs homeowners ordering 3 tons or more, bulk delivery is usually the most cost-effective and convenient option because it eliminates multiple trips and heavy lifting. Pickup from a local yard can save money if you have a suitable truck and time, but it becomes impractical for larger orders. Compare the delivered per-ton price and factor in your time and vehicle costs before deciding.
Fill dirt pricing varies with material quality, source distance, and local demand. Rather than list a fixed number, we recommend requesting a local quote from Hello Gravel for DeFuniak Springs because prices change frequently. Provide your zip code and volume needs to get an accurate delivered price.
For foundation perimeter drainage in DeFuniak Springs, clean crushed stone or washed gravel is usually the safest option because it promotes drainage and resists settling. Engineered fill or clean sand may be specified by an engineer for structural backfill where compaction is required; avoid organic-rich fill dirt near foundations. Always follow the requirements of your engineer or local code for foundation backfill.
Yes, many suppliers in our West Florida network offer volume discounts and can sometimes accommodate same-week delivery depending on availability. Hello Gravel checks local supplier inventory and scheduling for DeFuniak Springs and can present any bulk pricing or expedited delivery options when you request a quote. Contact our team or enter your zip code to see real-time options.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
