Gravel: Drainage For Sunny Coastal Climates • Next-Day Gravel Delivery To Driveway
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 Lee Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lee's city population is 2,440 and the area is part of a fast-growing region with a 2.50% annual growth rate and a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With 228 sunny days per year, a warm hardiness zone of 8b, and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners are building and renovating year-round. That steady growth and favorable climate drive demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage, patios, and garden projects. Homeowners want clear guidance on gravel size, coverage, and delivery so they can avoid overordering or delays and choose products that resist washout, promote drainage, and match local soil conditions. Gravel performs well in Lee's sun‑filled, occasionally rainy environment: coarser mixes shed water and stabilize sandy soils while pea gravel and fines create comfortable walking surfaces and decorative beds. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate gravel, offers an online calculator to size your order, and schedules delivery with professional dump trucks—making it simple to get the right material when you need it without guessing at quantities.Popular Projects in Lee This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lee gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lee.
Common choices around Lee include crushed limestone (good base material), crushed shell or dried shell mixes (locally popular and decorative), pea gravel (for walkways and patios), and river rock or washed decorative stone (for accents). Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, shell and limestone variations are common in West Florida and color/texture may vary by supplier.
Use these typical estimates with 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons (varies by material). A 1-car driveway (10'x20') at 3-4" depth needs roughly 3-4 tons; a 2-car driveway (20'x20') at 4" depth needs about 7 tons. A 3'x20' walkway at 3" is about 1 ton, and a 12'x12' patio at 3" is about 2 tons; add 10-20% for compaction and settling.
Angular, crushed stone (3/4" or similar) and clean drainage rock (1"-2") work best because they lock together and keep clear voids for water. Combine stone with geotextile fabric and proper grading to reduce migration into sandy soils; avoid fine, powdery mixes that can wash away during heavy rains.
Hello Gravel standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee applies). Deliveries are made by contracted tri-axle dump trucks, and the minimum order is 3 tons. Drivers may be able to tailgate spread at their discretion—request it at checkout but expect the driver to assess feasibility on arrival.
Prices vary by material and supplier; as a rough range, base gravels and crushed limestone often run roughly $20-$45 per ton delivered, while decorative gravels or specialty shells can be $45-$90 per ton delivered. Delivery fees may be included in many areas but can vary by distance, truck access, and order size; check your zip code on Hello Gravel for exact pricing and a quote.
Rules vary by municipality and HOA; some HOAs and city codes restrict visible gravel, require concrete or pavers, or set standards for runoff and curb appeal. Before ordering, check Lee city regulations and any HOA covenants, and contact the local planning office or HOA board to confirm permitted materials and setback/drainage requirements.
For hurricane-prone conditions choose heavier, angular stone (crushed stone or larger drainage rock) with good edge restraints and a stable base layer. Install over a compacted base and geotextile fabric, maintain positive drainage (swales or French drains), and avoid fine or very round gravels that tend to migrate in heavy runoff.
Expect light maintenance like regrading after major storms and topping up thin areas every 1-3 years, with more thorough regrading or additional material every 3-7 years depending on traffic. Typical small upkeep is a few hundred dollars every couple of years for topping up a residential driveway; larger repairs or complete renewal will cost more and depend on material and access.
Gravel is usually the lowest upfront cost and drains well, but it requires ongoing maintenance and can migrate in heavy rains. Asphalt gives a smoother, lower-maintenance surface with higher upfront cost; pavers provide the most durable and attractive option but are the most expensive. Crushed shell is locally attractive and affordable, but it can pulverize and track in wet weather, so it's best for low-traffic decorative areas.
Yes—check availability by entering your zip code on Hello Gravel's site; minimum orders start at 3 tons. Choose your material, pick a delivery date in the checkout calendar, add order notes for placement or spreading requests, and pay securely with major credit cards, PayPal, or Apple Pay; contact our team at 855-241-8884 if you need help or a custom quote.
Ask about the exact material name and size, whether it is screened or washed, the source or quarry, delivered price per ton and any delivery fee, and truck type for access. Also confirm minimum order, whether drivers will tailgate spread (and any charge), expected delivery window, and whether the supplier carries insurance and references for local deliveries.
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.
