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.
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 St. Augustine Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
St. Augustine, with a city population of 15,000 and situated within a metro area of 1.6+ million residents, is experiencing steady development that drives demand for reliable landscaping and hardscape materials. The local subtropical climate — about 52.00 inches of rain annually, roughly 220 sunny days per year, and hardiness zone 9b — means yards and driveways must handle heavy downpours, long sun exposure, and coastal weather. That steady 0.90% annual growth translates into more renovations, new driveways, and drainage projects where quality aggregates matter. Homeowners often turn to gravel because properly graded stone improves drainage, reduces mud and erosion, and creates durable walking and driving surfaces that stand up to St. Augustine’s seasonal rains and sun. Gravel is particularly well suited to this environment: permeable mixes like crushed stone and pea gravel let water pass through, reducing surface runoff and helping protect foundations and slopes from washout. Color and texture will vary because regional sourcing reflects local geology, but locally sourced gravel typically integrates better with native soils and coastal conditions. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right material by connecting you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery, and options like standard 2+ business days delivery or next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in St. Augustine This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - St. Augustine gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in St. Augustine.
Prices vary by gravel type and truck size, but expect roughly $400 to $1,200 for a typical tri-axle dump truck load delivered to St. Augustine. Factors that change the price include material type (crushed stone vs pea gravel), distance from the pit, and whether spreading is requested. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and can provide a precise local quote and delivery options for your zip code.
For a 1,000 sq ft area at 2 inches depth you need about 6.2 cubic yards, or roughly 8.5 to 9 tons of gravel. Cost depends on material but using a common range of $35 to $60 per ton delivered, you should budget roughly $300 to $550 for materials, not including spreading or site prep. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or request a local quote to get an exact price for your zip code.
In St. Augustine, 1 ton of common crushed gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards and will cover roughly 115 sq ft at 2 inches deep or about 77 sq ft at 3 inches deep. Coverage varies with material density and particle size, so treat these as estimates. For precise needs, calculate area x depth to get cubic yards and convert to tons using our calculator.
Local gravel prices in Florida often fall in the range of $30 to $75 per ton delivered, depending on type and quality. Coastal sourcing and seasonal demand can push prices up, and speciality materials may cost more. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing and can provide a location-specific quote for St. Augustine when you enter your zip code.
Assuming a single-car driveway 20 ft long by 10 ft wide (200 sq ft), you would need about 2.6 tons at 3 inches depth or about 1.7 tons at 2 inches depth. Material cost for that amount commonly runs from $100 to $400 depending on material and finish; add labor or spreading if needed. For most small driveways Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum will cover the project and we can quote delivery and optional spreading.
A 7x14 dump trailer typically carries between 3 and 6 cubic yards depending on side height and how full it is. That translates to roughly 4 to 8 tons of gravel, depending on material density. If you plan to haul gravel in a trailer, check the trailer's volume and weight capacity before loading.
Cheapest options are generally less-processed mixes like bank run or crusher run, which combine fines and stone and work well for driveways and base layers. Local materials like coquina or shell blends may be inexpensive in some coastal areas, but availability and suitability vary by site. Ask Hello Gravel for local options and pricing so you can compare cost versus performance for your project.
If your 20-foot driveway is 10 ft wide (200 sq ft), you will need about 0.62 cubic yards (≈0.86 tons) at 2 inches depth and about 1.85 cubic yards (≈2.6 tons) at 3 inches depth. For most driveways you should plan on a 3-inch base layer plus a top dressing, so ordering the 3-ton minimum is common. Get a free estimate from Hello Gravel to match depth and material to your intended use.
Physically, a 1 cubic yard pile can fit in many full-size pickup beds, but the weight is the limiting factor: 1 yd3 of gravel can weigh about 2,800 to 3,000 lbs depending on the material. That often exceeds a pickup's safe payload and can risk damage or unsafe driving. We recommend using a professional delivery if you don't know your truck's payload or prefer a safer option.
Gravel surfaces can last many years with regular maintenance; a driveway may function well for 10 to 20 years before major replenishment is needed. In the St. Augustine area, heavy rains, coastal storm runoff, and sandy soils can cause washouts and loss of fines, so periodic top-up and occasional regrading are common. Proper base preparation and drainage will extend the life of your gravel surface.
Yes, but preparation improves performance: remove vegetation, grade and compact the soil, and install a geotextile fabric or crushed rock base if the subsoil is very sandy or wet. In coastal Florida, adding a compacted base layer of larger stone followed by the finish gravel helps prevent settlement and washout. If you're unsure, Hello Gravel's team can recommend a local material and depth for your site.
For a 10 ft by 10 ft area (100 sq ft), you need about 0.62 cubic yards (≈0.86 tons) at 2 inches depth and about 0.93 cubic yards (≈1.3 tons) at 3 inches depth. In practice round up to the next half yard or ton to allow for compaction and settling, so most homeowners order 1 to 2 tons. Use our material calculator or contact Hello Gravel for a quick estimate.
Crushed angular stone like 3/4 inch crushed rock or crusher run makes a durable driveway because the particles lock together and resist displacement. Avoid smooth river rock for driveways because it shifts under tires; coastal shell mixes may be attractive but can crush and wick differently. Consider local availability and drainage needs; Hello Gravel can suggest the best local aggregate for a long-lasting driveway.
Labor rates vary: basic labor or general landscape help in the St. Augustine area often ranges lower, while skilled operators, small crews, or specialized equipment operators can charge $75 to $150 per hour. For spreading, grading, or site prep that requires a machine and operator, $100/hr can be reasonable; for general hand labor it may be high. Ask for detailed bids, references, and a clear scope of work before agreeing to hourly rates.
