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.
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 Starke Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Starke has a city population of 13,120 and sits within a growing regional market (metro area population of 2.5+ million). With a growth rate of 2.50% annually and a warm climate (hardiness zone 8b) that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rain annually, local homeowners and contractors are steadily investing in property improvements. New construction, driveway repairs, and landscaping upgrades increase demand for dependable aggregates that stand up to sun, sudden rain events, and routine wear. Gravel is a popular choice because it improves drainage, reduces erosion, and provides a stable, low-maintenance surface for driveways, pathways, and French drains. In Starke, selecting the right gradation and texture helps prevent washouts during heavy rains and limits dust and rutting during dry, sunny periods.Popular Projects in Starke This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Starke gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Starke.
Near Starke you can typically find common gravel mixes like #57 crushed stone, crusher run (dense grade aggregate), pea gravel, and larger landscape rock. Regional suppliers often offer locally sourced variants, so texture and color can vary from sandy tan to gray. If you need a specific look or size, add details in Order Notes or contact our team to confirm availability.
Delivered cost in West Florida (Starke area) varies by material and distance, but expect roughly $30 to $70 per ton for common gravels and about $40 to $100 per cubic yard depending on density. Final price depends on material type, delivery distance, truck size, and any additional services like tailgate spreading. For an exact quote check your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team.
Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve the Starke area. Minimum orders are generally 3 tons, deliveries are made by dump truck (usually tri-axle), and delivery radius and fees vary by supplier; free delivery is available in many areas. Confirm delivery window and any surcharges during checkout or by calling our team.
Starke’s hot, humid climate and sandy-to-silty soils mean gravel drains well but can shift during heavy rains or storms. High rainfall events can cause washouts and rutting if surfaces are not properly graded, compacted, and edged. Choosing angular crushed stone and proper base prep helps maintain stability and drainage in local conditions.
For a long-lasting 2-car driveway we recommend a compacted gravel depth of about 6 inches total (4-inch compacted base plus 2-inch surface). For a 20'x20' two-car area (400 sq ft) that equals about 0.5 cubic yards per 100 sq ft, roughly 6.5 to 10 tons depending on material density and compaction. Larger driveways or softer soils may need 8 inches of material; use our material calculator or contact our team for a precise estimate.
A typical single-car parking pad (12'x20') at 6 inches needs about 3.3 cubic yards, roughly 4.5 to 6 tons. A 3-foot-wide walking path 50 feet long at a 2-inch top depth uses about 0.9 cubic yard, roughly 1.2 to 1.5 tons. Local soil and expected foot or vehicle traffic may change these amounts, so treat these as starting estimates.
Yes: before installing a gravel driveway in Starke check Bradford County permitting rules and any HOA covenants that apply to your property, as some neighborhoods restrict surface materials or require setbacks. Street or right-of-way work and driveway curb cuts may require county approval. When in doubt, contact the county building department or your HOA and keep permit or approval notes on hand when ordering materials.
In West Florida, gravel driveways typically need periodic raking, topping, and regrading after heavy rains—expect maintenance at least annually and spot repairs after storms. Gravel is lower cost upfront but requires ongoing upkeep and usually lasts 3 to 10 years before significant replenishing is needed, while asphalt or concrete have higher upfront cost and lower routine maintenance with longer service life. Choose gravel when you want lower initial cost and easier repairs, and plan for regular maintenance in Starke’s climate.
Contractors in the Starke area usually remove topsoil, grade the site for proper drainage, and install geotextile fabric where needed to limit mixing with native soils. They build a compacted base of crusher run or similar aggregate in 2- to 3-inch lifts with mechanical compaction, add edge restraints, crown the surface for runoff, and finish with a 1- to 2-inch wearing layer like #57 or pea gravel. Proper prep and compaction are the biggest factors in resisting washouts and rutting in local conditions.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
