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.
3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
Red Shredded Mulch
Red shredded bark and wood from hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. Good for gardening and landscaping. Helps hold moisture, block weeds, and adds a bold, red pop to your outdoors.
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.

Why lorida Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
lorida sits at the center of a growing West Florida region, with a city population of 1,030 and a metro area population of 2.5+ million. A growth rate of 2.50% annually means steady development pressure—more driveways, patios, and new landscaping projects as homeowners and small-scale builders invest in property improvements. The area's climate, with 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches in Hardiness Zone 8b, creates demand for a range of bulk materials: stable base materials for paths and driveways, well-draining sands and gravels for foundation and grading work, blended soils for gardens, and resilient mulches and topsoils for plantings. Local trends toward year-round outdoor living and storm-ready landscaping mean homeowners need reliable supplies that balance erosion control, drainage, and aesthetic goals across different project types.Popular Projects in lorida This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - lorida Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in lorida.
Choose materials that handle heat, moisture, and occasional salt spray; good options prioritize drainage and stability. For many projects, mixes of gravel, sand, dirt, stone that promote runoff and resist washout perform well. Expect regional variation in color and texture due to local geology.
Base your choice on load, drainage needs, and appearance rather than a single material type. For example, a strong, compactable base is important for driveways, while permeable mixes help drainage for yards and low-lying areas. Use a material calculator or consult suppliers to match depth and type to your specific project.
Plan around the wet season and hurricane months; in Florida that generally means more rain and storm risk from June through November. Best windows for outdoor work are often the drier late fall through spring months, but short-term weather and local forecasts will affect exact timing. Expect possible rain delays and plan extra time during wet periods.
Standard delivery timelines commonly start at 2+ business days, with next-day delivery sometimes available for orders placed early (additional fee may apply). Most deliveries come by tri-axle dump truck and suppliers often have a 3-ton minimum. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed.
Depth needs vary by project: small walkways often use about 3 inches of material, patios and paths 3-4 inches, and driveways or base layers 4-6 inches or more. Convert depth into cubic yards or tons using our material calculator because weight and coverage vary between gravel, sand, dirt, stone. When in doubt, order a bit extra to allow for compaction and grading.
Prices vary by material and local supply, but a rough range is $25 to $60 per cubic yard or about $15 to $50 per ton for common aggregates; delivery fees or flat truck charges often run from about $50 to $150 depending on distance and access. Exact costs depend on local supplier rates, haul distance, load size, and site access; check your zip code for accurate pricing.
Permits are sometimes required for work that changes curb cuts, alters drainage, blocks public streets, or brings in heavy equipment, so check with lorida's local building or public works office. Deliveries to private property usually do not need a permit, but street blocking, sidewalk access, or HOA rules can require approvals. Contact local authorities before large projects to avoid fines or delays.
Clear a safe, level access route and mark the desired drop location so the driver can place material accurately. Remove low branches, secure pets, and protect nearby landscaping or pavers; if ground is soft after rain, discuss offloading options with the supplier. If access is tight, notify your supplier in advance so they can plan equipment and placement.
Compare materials by permeability, compaction, and susceptibility to washout: more permeable mixes shed water quickly, while well-graded, angular materials compact better under load. Consider your slope, expected traffic, and maintenance tolerance—some materials require periodic topping or raking. Ask suppliers about local performance because regional mixes can behave differently in coastal, sandy, or clay-prone areas.
Homeowners often look for practical comparisons and quantities, for example: 'best driveway material for Florida', 'how much gravel for a 1-car driveway', 'sand or stone for paver base', and 'drainage materials for coastal yards'. These queries show the main concerns: durability, drainage, cost, and how much to order. Use those terms when checking guides and calculators to get tailored results.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
