Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Walkway Gravel
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.

Why Miami Lakes Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Miami Lakes, with a population of 30,598, sits inside the larger Miami-Fort Lauderdale metro area (2.5+ million) and is seeing steady development at a growth rate of 0.40% annually. The town’s subtropical setting—228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall—combined with low-elevation coastal geography, drives consistent demand for durable, well-draining outdoor materials. Homeowners here are upgrading driveways, creating low-maintenance landscapes, and improving yard drainage to handle summer downpours and intense sun. Gravel is often chosen because it provides permeability, resists rutting on sandy soils, and holds up to heat and UV exposure better than many organic ground covers. Local projects benefit from aggregates that match Miami Lakes’ geology and weather patterns, reducing maintenance and extending the life of hardscape features.Popular Projects in Miami Lakes This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Miami Lakes gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Miami Lakes.
Bulk base gravel in Miami Lakes commonly runs about $20-$45 per ton delivered, while decorative gravels typically cost $40-$100 per ton delivered depending on color and source. For a standard 12x30 driveway at 3"-4" depth you will need roughly 5-6 tons, so material cost could be about $100-$600; installation and base preparation often add $400-$2,000 depending on grading, compaction, and edging. Prices vary by supplier, so check your zip code on Hello Gravel for local quotes and next-day availability if needed.
Crushed limestone is a common and durable choice in South Florida for driveways because it compacts well and resists washout. Shell or coquina mixes and pea gravel are popular decorative options—shells are locally available but can break down over time, while pea gravel drains well but can shift. For drainage or heavier loads use a compacted aggregate base (crusher run) under the top layer to stabilize gravel in Miami Lakes' sandy soils.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects customers in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale area with local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers that deliver bulk gravel to Miami Lakes. For installation contractors, check the Hello Gravel supplier list, local business directories, or the town's online resources and always ask for references and photos of similar projects before hiring.
Heavy rain and high runoff in Miami Lakes can wash or thin loose gravel if the base and slope aren't prepared. Install a compacted crushed-aggregate base (4"-6" or more for driveways), use geotextile fabric to separate sandy subsoil, slope surfaces to shed water away from structures, and add firm edging (concrete, steel, or pavers) to hold material in place. For sites prone to standing water consider a deeper base, improved drainage (swales or French drains), and coarser stone for the wearing surface.
A simple formula is: cubic yards = area (sq ft) x depth (in inches) / 324. In South Florida we commonly use 1.3 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard depending on stone; Hello Gravel estimates use about 1.4 tons/yd3 for planning. Example estimates: a 12x30 driveway at 3" needs ~3.3 yd3 (~4.7 tons); a 3x30 walkway at 2" needs ~0.56 yd3 (~0.8 tons); a 20x30 patio at 2" needs ~3.7 yd3 (~5.2 tons) or at 3" about 5.6 yd3 (~7.8 tons).
Many Miami Lakes HOAs and the Town have rules about front-yard appearance, allowed materials, and percentage of impermeable or decorative rock coverage, so check your HOA covenants first. Small decorative changes often do not require a town permit, but major grading, irrigation removal, or changes that affect stormwater runoff may require approval from the Town of Miami Lakes or a building permit. Before ordering gravel, contact your HOA and the town planning or building department to confirm local rules and any required inspections.
Expect to regrade and top up a gravel driveway every 1-3 years depending on traffic, storms, and initial depth; heavier traffic and tropical storms speed up material loss. Routine maintenance includes raking and redistributing material, adding weed-prevention measures (landscape fabric plus pre-emergent), and repairing low spots after heavy rain. With proper base prep and edging, a gravel driveway can function for many years, but decorative topcoats will need periodic replenishing.
Gravel is usually the lowest-cost option and is the most permeable, which helps with heavy rain and a high water table common in Miami Lakes. Pavers and concrete are more durable and require less frequent top-up, but they are more expensive, can trap heat, and may need engineered drainage in flood-prone yards. If drainage and stormwater infiltration are priorities, well-installed gravel or permeable paver systems are often the better choice in South Florida.
Specialty materials such as white marble chips, river rock, and decorative shells are available in the South Florida market but often carry higher unit prices, minimum order quantities, and occasional lead times. Decorative stone commonly ranges from about $60-$150 per ton delivered depending on type and color; shells are widely used locally but may be restricted by HOAs. Get samples before ordering, and ask Hello Gravel about local supply and delivery timing for specialty gravels.
For artificial turf, start with a compacted subbase of crusher-run or crusher fines (4"-6"), install a geotextile fabric, and finish with a clean leveling layer to provide drainage and stability. For French drains, use washed 3/4" or 1" stone wrapped in filter fabric with correctly sloped perforated pipe; avoid mixing fines into the drain stone to maintain flow. Both applications increase material and labor costs because they require specific stone types, compaction, and proper grading—get a quote that separates material and installation costs.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, which meets many small projects around Miami Lakes; check availability for smaller decorative deliveries. Deliveries are usually by tri-axle dump truck, so ensure the drop zone has adequate access and room to turn; soft landscaping, low-hanging wires, gates, or narrow driveways can affect the driver's ability to dump. Choose a preferred delivery date at checkout, allow 2+ business days for standard delivery (next-day possible before noon CST for a fee), and add site notes for curb, driveway, or backyard drops.
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.
