Gravel in Middleburg, FL

A typical 2-car driveway (about 20 ft x 40 ft) at a 4" depth needs roughly 12–16 tons of gravel, depending on the stone density and how compacted you want it. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, and delivery is arranged from local suppliers via dump truck; standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day is available for orders placed before noon CST. Material cost and delivery fees vary by material type and supplier, so the best way to get an accurate price is to use our online quote tool or request a quote for your Middleburg zip code.

For Middleburg’s sandy soils and humid climate, a crushed, angular stone like 3/4" crushed stone or 57-type gravel with a compactable base layer performs well because it locks together and resists rutting. In many local installs, a layered approach works best: a compacted crushed-stone base or crusher-run, geotextile fabric to separate sand, then a 1–2" surface layer of 3/4" stone. This setup improves drainage and reduces movement in heavy rains common to West Florida.

Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers near Middleburg so you can buy bulk gravel online and schedule delivery from contracted haulers. Deliveries are made by dump truck, usually tri-axle, and we have a 3-ton minimum; tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver's discretion and cannot be guaranteed. For spreading or full installation, ask your supplier or a local contractor for a separate labor quote.

A 20 ft x 20 ft pad at 3" depth requires about 5–7 tons of gravel; at 4" depth you should plan on about 7–9 tons. Local contractors and suppliers can measure site conditions, account for compaction, and provide a precise tonnage estimate, so we recommend getting a contractor estimate or using our online material calculator for a quick estimate.

Gravel (crushed stone) is generally more durable and easier to compact than crushed shell, so it usually withstands heavy rains and vehicle traffic better around Middleburg. Crushed shell can be attractive and regionally common, but it tends to break down, track, and wash out faster during storms unless placed over a well-prepared base and protected with edging. For storm-prone areas, prioritize good base prep, proper grading, and drainage regardless of the top material.

With proper base preparation, drainage, and regular maintenance, a gravel driveway in Middleburg can perform well for many years, but surfaces commonly need top-ups every 1–3 years depending on traffic and storm exposure. Expect to add a thin layer (1–2" ) of new gravel periodically to fill ruts and restore crown, and plan for more significant refreshes or regrading every 5–10 years. Regular maintenance after heavy rainy seasons helps prolong its life.

Installation costs vary with scope, site access, and material, but a typical full installation in the Middleburg area (including excavation, geotextile, compacted base, and surface stone) often ranges from about $3 to $8 per square foot. For rough per-ton comparisons, contractors may charge $30–$80 per ton installed, depending on labor and site preparation. Because prices vary, get two or three local quotes and confirm what each includes before hiring.

Gravel can work in Middleburg if you design for drainage, use a sturdy base, and anchor edges, but heavy storms and hurricane-strength runoff can move surface stone and create washouts. For high-use driveways or critical access during storms, consider more resilient surfaces like stabilized aggregate, pavers, or concrete, or combine gravel with geotextile and proper swales to manage runoff. If you choose gravel, plan for more frequent maintenance after major storms.

Local codes and HOA covenants can restrict driveway materials, visible surfacing, or the use of loose shell or stone, so check Middleburg city rules, Clay County regulations, and any HOA guidelines before ordering material. Requirements vary neighborhood to neighborhood, so obtain any necessary permits and confirm HOA approval to avoid rework or fines. If you need help, our sales team can point you to local permitting contacts.

Removing an old surface and installing a new gravel driveway depends on disposal, site difficulty, and base needs; total costs often range from about $8 to $15 per square foot in the Middleburg area for full removal and new install. If quoted per ton, expect installed pricing in the $30–$80 per ton range, with additional charges for demolition and hauling off old material.
