Why melbournevillage Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Melbournevillage is a small but growing community with a city population of 720, located within a larger metro area housing 2.5+ million people and experiencing an annual growth rate of 2.50%. In a hardiness zone of 8b with 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, demand for practical, low-maintenance outdoor solutions is rising as homeowners invest in driveways, patios, and drainage upgrades. That steady growth and active outdoor lifestyle make quality aggregates like gravel important: homeowners need materials that handle sun, occasional heavy rain, and the wear of frequent use. Gravel delivers durability, straightforward installation, and cost-effective coverage for common projects, so local buyers prioritize reliable supply, consistent sizing, and trustworthy delivery to keep projects on schedule.Popular Projects in melbournevillage This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - melbournevillage gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in melbournevillage.
Crushed stone (3/4" or 1/2" crushed rock) is the most common and practical choice for driveways in Melbourne Village because it compacts well and resists shifting. Pea gravel and river rock look attractive but tend to move under vehicle traffic and heavy rain, so they are better for walkways or decorative areas. In coastal Central Florida you may also see shell mixes; they are locally available but require good base preparation and edging to perform well.
Melbourne Village’s sandy soils and frequent heavy rains increase the risk of washout and rutting unless you prepare a proper base. Use a compacted layer of larger crushed stone for drainage, a geotextile fabric to separate native sand from the gravel, and good edge restraints to keep material in place. Plan for regular maintenance after storms, such as regrading and topping up low spots.
Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, many small jobs start at that amount. Typical ranges: 1-car driveway 3-6 tons (depends on width and depth), 2-car driveway 6-12 tons, 12x12 patio at 2" depth about 1-2 tons (you may still need the 3-ton minimum), and a 3x20 ft walkway about 0.5-1 ton. Always calculate using your exact dimensions and desired compacted depth, then check the quote for regional material density.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Per-ton pricing in West Florida varies by material: crushed stone often ranges about $25-$45 per ton, pea gravel and decorative gravels about $35-$65 per ton, and larger river rock about $40-$80 per ton. Prices depend on local supply, haul distance, and seasonal demand, so check your zip code for an exact quote.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which covers many small driveway repairs and small landscaping projects. For projects needing less than 3 tons, consider buying bagged stone from a local yard or combine multiple small projects to use the full delivery. Contact our team for help calculating needs and to discuss options.
Melbourne Village and some HOAs may have rules about driveway materials, curb cuts, drainage, and visible front-yard surfaces. Always check with the Village building department and your HOA before ordering materials to confirm whether a permit or approval is required. If you need guidance, contact our sales team and we can point you to local resources.
Professional installation costs vary with scope: expect contractor-installed gravel driveways (including base prep, compaction, and edging) to range roughly $2.50-$7.00 per square foot, depending on access, existing conditions, and material choice. For small driveways that typically totals $500-$3,000; larger or more complex jobs can cost more. Get local installation quotes that include compaction, geotextile, and edging for accurate pricing.
Key steps are: remove or regrade native sand where needed, install geotextile fabric, lay and compact a 3-6" crushed stone base for stability and drainage, add a 1-2" wearing layer of smaller decorative gravel, and install edging to contain material. Also slope the driveway to shed water, and consider adding a perimeter French drain if runoff concentrates in one area.
Heavy tropical rains can wash fines and create ruts, especially on sandy subgrades. Repair by regrading low spots, adding fresh gravel where needed, and re-compacting; if washout is frequent, upgrade the base layer and improve drainage with swales or drains. Regular seasonal maintenance after storm season helps prevent small issues from becoming costly repairs.
Measure project area and desired compacted depth to calculate tons, then account for Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum when ordering. Choose a delivery date at checkout, add any location notes (preferred drop spot, driveway width, overhead clearance), and request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to consider it—remember spreading is performed at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed. If you have special access or local restrictions, contact our team so we can coordinate with the supplier and hauler.
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.
