Gravel in Summerfield, FL

Local suppliers typically use tri-axle or similar dump trucks. A common tri-axle delivery holds about 10 to 14 cubic yards of loose gravel, which usually weighs roughly 13 to 20 tons depending on stone size and moisture content. Exact capacity and weight vary by supplier and material, so check your order confirmation for the truck size.

For 1,000 sq ft a 2-inch depth requires about 6.2 cubic yards and a 4-inch depth about 12.3 cubic yards. That converts to roughly 8.7 to 17.2 tons using a practical estimate of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard; use the higher number if you want extra for compaction and settling.

Hello Gravel works with local suppliers that typically have a 3-ton minimum order and many areas offer free delivery, but fees can apply depending on distance and access. Expect possible surcharges for very long driveways, narrow or steep access, or extra maneuvers; these typically range from a small flat fee to $25–$100+ depending on the situation, so request a full quote when ordering.

Common local options include 3/4u0022 crushed stone (often called #57), pea gravel, river rock, crusher run (mix of fines and stone), and decomposed granite; appearance and color vary with local geology. Prices depend on type and size: crushed stone and crusher run are usually at the lower end of the range, pea gravel and decorative river rock are higher; delivered prices in West Florida often fall in a broad range (for example, roughly $25–$60 per ton or $30–$75 per cubic yard) — get an exact quote for your zip code and material choice.

Yes. Florida’s rainy season and hurricane season can disrupt quarry and hauling schedules and increase demand for certain materials, and spring is often busier for landscaping projects. To avoid delays or higher seasonal rates, plan ahead and check availability when you get a quote.

Many suppliers and local contractors offer spreading, grading, and compaction but charges vary: spreading and labor are often quoted per cubic yard or hourly (a typical ballpark is $10–$30 per cubic yard or $50–$150 per hour), grading can range from a few hundred dollars upward depending on scope, and compaction/mechanized rolling is commonly $100–$300 for small jobs. Note that Hello Gravel drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but this is not guaranteed and dedicated installation is best booked with a contractor.

Gravel volume is often measured in cubic yards while trucks and minimums are sometimes listed in tons. A practical conversion for common gravel in Summerfield is about 1.3 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard; we recommend using 1.4 tons per cubic yard for planning, and ask your supplier for the exact conversion for the material you choose when placing an order.

Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle) and require clear, passable access and a stable place for the truck to park and dump. Drivers will aim to place material where safe; request tailgate spreading at checkout but expect the driver to decide if it can be done safely, and notify us of any access issues ahead of time so your supplier can plan accordingly.
