A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - Gardens Of Gulf Cove gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Gardens Of Gulf Cove.
Prices vary by gravel type, supplier, and distance from the quarry, but expect material plus delivery to typically range from about $40 to $90 per ton for common gravels in the Gardens Of Gulf Cove area. Delivery fees depend on your zip code and supplier; many Hello Gravel orders include free delivery or a modest delivery fee, while remote or small orders may incur $50 to $150 extra. The easiest way to get an exact price is to enter your address on Hello Gravel and request a quote for your chosen quantity.
For driveways in Gardens Of Gulf Cove we recommend angular crushed stone like 3/4" crushed stone or #57 crushed stone for a stable, well-draining surface. These materials lock together better than round river rock and resist washout during heavy rains; avoid very fine, sandy mixes as they can rut and compact poorly in our coastal soils. If you want a smoother finish for walking or aesthetics, top the base layer with pea gravel or decorative stone but include edging and good drainage.
A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft. At 2 inches you need about 3.5 tons, at 3 inches about 5.2 tons, at 4 inches about 6.9 tons, and at 6 inches about 10.4 tons (using 1.4 tons per cubic yard). Order 5–10% extra to allow for compaction, grading, and waste; note Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons, so the 2-inch option may be near the minimum.
Some local contractors and suppliers near Gardens Of Gulf Cove offer installation and compaction as an add-on, but this varies and is not guaranteed through Hello Gravel deliveries. Typical contractor costs depend on site prep, edging, and size—small driveway installs often range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars; get at least two local quotes for accurate pricing. If you want the delivery driver to spread material, request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform this at their discretion and Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading service.
With proper base, drainage, and occasional maintenance a gravel driveway in Gardens Of Gulf Cove can last many years, but heavy rain, tropical storms, and sandy soils speed wear. Plan on minor regrading and topping with 1/2 to 1 inch of new gravel every 1–3 years, and more significant refreshes every 3–7 years depending on traffic and storm exposure. Good drainage, edging, and periodic compaction reduce how often you need to add material.
Gravel can be effective for moderate slopes when combined with geotextile fabric, edging, and terracing to slow runoff, but it is not a cure-all for severe erosion on steep coastal slopes. For steep or high-flow areas consider engineered solutions such as retaining walls, riprap, vegetated swales, or check dams; local soil and storm conditions in Gardens Of Gulf Cove often require a combination approach. Consult a local landscaper or civil engineer for steep sites, and use angular crushed stone rather than round rock for better interlock.
Gravel is generally the lowest-cost surface option up front—material and delivery costs are typically a fraction of installed concrete or interlocking pavers. Concrete and pavers have higher material and labor costs and often run several times the price of a gravel driveway once proper base and edging are included. Remember gravel may require more regular maintenance and topping over time, so factor lifecycle upkeep into comparisons.
Decorative gravel can wash or migrate in heavy rains and during storms if it is not contained and installed properly, which is a real concern in Gardens Of Gulf Cove’s seasonal downpours. Prevent washout with solid edging, proper slope grading, a geotextile underlayer, and by choosing appropriately sized stone (larger decorative rock resists movement better). For exposed front yards consider mulch beds, native plants, or hardscape features in combination with gravel to reduce washout risk.
Clean, washed angular stone such as 3/4" crushed stone or #57 gravel provides the best drainage for areas prone to standing water because it creates open voids for water to pass through. Avoid mixes with fines or clay content, like some crusher-run blends, which retain moisture and can compact into a low-permeability layer. For persistent standing water, combine gravel with subsurface drainage (French drains) and regrading to move water away from structures.
Possibly—HOAs in the Gardens Of Gulf Cove area commonly have rules about driveway materials, appearance, and edging, and Charlotte County permits may apply for driveway changes near the street or where drainage is altered. Before ordering gravel, check your HOA guidelines and contact Charlotte County building or public works for any permit requirements. If you’re unsure, Hello Gravel recommends confirming rules early so you can select an approved material and finish.
As a quick rule of thumb for typical crushed stone, 1 cubic yard equals about 1.4 tons, though density varies by material and moisture. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order, standard delivery requires 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; always check your checkout for exact timing and minimums. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team with your dimensions to get an accurate quantity and delivery estimate.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
