Gravel in highlandpark, FL

Local delivered prices vary, but typical ranges in West Florida are: crushed stone/#57 and crushed limestone about $25-$50 per ton ($35-$70 per cubic yard), pea gravel about $35-$80 per ton ($50-$110 per cubic yard), decomposed granite about $40-$80 per ton ($55-$110 per cubic yard), and shell mixes about $25-$60 per ton ($35-$85 per cubic yard). Prices depend on exact material, seasonal demand, and distance from the quarry; ask Hello Gravel for a local delivered quote to Highlandpark for exact pricing.

For Highlandpark's coastal sandy soils and heavy summer rains, crushed stone (#57), crushed limestone, and angular base mixes perform best because they lock together and resist washout. Shell can be popular locally but tends to migrate and may need edging; pea gravel looks nice but moves under traffic and is best for low-traffic paths or decorative areas.

Use these typical estimates assuming a compacted depth of 4 inches: 1-car driveway (about 12'x20') needs roughly 3-4 cubic yards (4-6 tons); 2-car driveway (about 20'x40') needs about 10-15 cubic yards (14-21 tons) depending on depth; a 10'x10' patio at 2-4 inches requires about 0.6-1.3 cubic yards (1-2 tons); a 100-foot swale 3 feet wide at 6 inches deep uses about 5.5 cubic yards (7.5-8.5 tons), with higher depth increasing quantities accordingly. These are starting points—measure your exact dimensions and use Hello Gravel’s calculator or call us for a site-specific estimate.

Simple delivery with tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion may be offered, but dedicated installation prices vary: expect local labor for spreading and compaction to run roughly $30-$75 per hour, or contractors may add $8-$30 per ton for basic spreading. Full contractor packages that include grading, base preparation, and drainage commonly run higher—often several hundred to a few thousand dollars for a 2-car driveway—so get itemized quotes and confirm whether grading and drainage are included.

Regulations vary by city, county, and HOA, so check Highlandpark's local building department and your HOA covenants before installing a gravel driveway. Common requirements include approved materials, edge restraints, dust control measures, and stormwater/drainage standards; obtain any required permits and written HOA approval before you order materials.

In Highlandpark's coastal and rainy climate expect periodic maintenance: light regrading and compaction annually or after heavy storms, with topping (adding new material) every 1-3 years in high-traffic areas. Vegetation in edges and low spots is common—annual trimming and spot-weeding helps—and proper edging and a geotextile layer reduce how often you need to refill.

In areas with high water tables or poor soils, use a separation geotextile fabric under the gravel to prevent mixing with native sand, and install a 4-6 inch compacted crushed stone base (or thicker where soft subgrade exists). Add edge restraints to hold material, consider a drainage layer or perforated pipe if needed, and increase base thickness to 6-8 inches in flood-prone spots for long-term stability.

Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers that typically deliver in 2+ business days as standard, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Minimum order is usually 3 tons; many suppliers offer optional tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion and some contractors or suppliers can provide paid spreading and compaction services—request these options at checkout and confirm availability for your Highlandpark address.

Gravel has the lowest upfront cost (roughly $1-$4 per sq ft installed) but higher maintenance over time due to periodic topping and regrading. Asphalt is mid-range upfront ($3-$6 per sq ft) and needs resurfacing every 15-20 years, while pavers cost the most up front ($10-$25 per sq ft) but often have the lowest maintenance and longest life. Consider traffic, drainage, and long-term budgets—gravel is cost-effective short term, while pavers often win on longevity and curb appeal.
