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

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.

Why The Crossings Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
The Crossings sits within a fast-moving Florida region with a city population of 28,000 and a metro area population of 2.3+ million. With a steady 0.69% annually growth rate and 228 sunny days per year, homeowners are frequently updating yards, driveways, and outdoor living spaces. That steady growth and neighborhood development create steady demand for aggregates for projects like driveways, drainage swales, pathways, and patio bases. Gravel is a common choice here because it stabilizes surfaces, improves runoff during an average annual rainfall of 33.69 inches, and holds up to strong sun exposure in hardiness zone 8b. Regional sourcing means texture and color vary, so practical choices about size and finish help match your project and budget while avoiding overbuying or under-ordering.Popular Projects in The Crossings This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - The Crossings gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in The Crossings.
Prices vary by type, but generally natural rounded gravel (pea gravel, river rock) is less expensive than processed crushed stone because crushing adds cost. In The Crossings you can typically expect crushed stone to be toward the higher end of local price ranges due to processing and trucking. Always request a quote from Hello Gravel for exact pricing in your zip code.
Local gravel pricing depends on type and quantity, but expect roughly $30 to $60 per ton in the The Crossings area, with 3-ton minimum orders. Price per cubic yard is commonly about 1.3 to 1.5 tons, so a cubic yard often runs a bit higher than per-ton math suggests. Delivery fees and next-day options may affect final cost, so check your quote at checkout.
Crusher-run (also called crushed stone base or DGA) and recycled concrete base are usually the most cost-effective driveway options because they compact tightly and form a stable surface. In South Florida conditions, use a compacted base layer and good drainage to handle heavy rains; a top layer of 3/4" crushed stone or pea gravel can be added for appearance. Ask our team for a local recommendation based on your lot slope and drainage.
Common local categories are crushed stone (angular, good for compaction), rounded pebbles/pea gravel (smooth, decorative), and regional materials like crushed shell or recycled concrete. Florida sourcing often produces lighter-colored limestone and shell blends, so appearance can vary by supplier. Tell us the look and function you want and we will match available local options.
A typical tri-axle dump truck serving The Crossings carries about 12 to 14 cubic yards, which translates to roughly 16 to 20 tons of gravel depending on type. Multiply the truck's tonnage by the per-ton price in your quote to estimate material cost; for example, 18 tons at $40/ton would be about $720, before any delivery fees or optional services. Hello Gravel will confirm truck size and provide an accurate flat quote for your address.
"Poor man's concrete" usually means mixing cement with coarse gravel and water while skipping sand or formal concrete mix. That mix can work for small, non-structural uses but is weaker and less durable than properly proportioned concrete, so it's not recommended for foundations or load-bearing work. For any structural project in The Crossings, use a proper concrete mix or ask a pro and get the correct materials delivered.
As a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of gravel weighs about 1.3 to 1.5 tons depending on material. Example: to cover 100 square feet at 2 inches deep you need about 0.5 cubic yards (roughly 0.7 tons); to cover the same area at 4 inches deep you need about 1.0 cubic yard (roughly 1.4 tons). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team with your dimensions for an exact estimate.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color and texture vary with regional geology and supplier stock—expect lighter limestone tones, shell fragments, or different pebble mixes in the The Crossings area. We encourage customers to add color or texture notes at checkout and to request a local sample or photo when possible. If appearance is critical, contact customer service before ordering so we can match available local products.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess upon arrival whether it can be done safely. For guaranteed spreading or precise grading, hire a local contractor and use Hello Gravel to deliver the material when you need it.
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.
