Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Daytona Beach address and unloads right where you point.





Volusia County properties from residential driveways to commercial building pads use crushed gravel for a stable, well-drained surface. Daytona Beach gets about 52 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning important for any gravel project.
Crushed gravel is an angular aggregate that locks together under compaction. It resists shifting better than rounded gravel and handles the wet conditions common in this coastal area.
Crushed gravel is sold by size from fine compacting grades up to large structural fill. Each size has a specific job. Choose the one that matches your subgrade and traffic load.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer under pavers or as a top dressing | Forms a tight, smooth surface with light traffic |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Workhorse size for base and drives | The standard for most residential and light commercial uses |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads or concrete slabs | Provides a stable foundation for trucks or equipment |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soils before placing a finer surface |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill in low areas | Large stone that stays put in wet, soft conditions |
The right crushed gravel size solves a specific ground problem. Match the project to the product for a lasting surface.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches compacted over a geotextile |
| Trench backfill | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fill and compact in 6-inch lifts |
| Compacted base for pavers | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches for vehicular traffic |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First layer at least 8 inches thick |
| Farm and site access road | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Over geotextile in very wet areas |
Daytona Beach sees about 52 inches of precipitation each year. That moisture means the base layer must drain well to keep the surface stable. About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters.
Soils mapped in the Daytona Beach area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. In practice that means you may need a thicker base of crushed gravel to spread the load and keep the surface from rutting. The ground around Daytona Beach soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, which reduces the amount of drainage stone needed under the surface layer.
Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point. About 3 days a year drop below 32F, so freeze-thaw movement is not a major concern here. The work window is essentially year-round.
Volume is measured in cubic yards and converted to tons at checkout. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to enter your project dimensions and find the weight you need. The calculator handles the math and shows the amount in tons.

Other aggregates that work with crushed gravel on your Daytona Beach site:
Yes. Soils mapped in the Daytona Beach area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. That can mean you need a thicker base layer of crushed gravel to prevent the surface from sinking or rutting in wet weather.
Order during the drier months when the ground is firm. Daytona Beach has about 79 days a year with measurable rain, so aim for a stretch with no rain in the forecast. The delivery truck needs a solid surface to reach the drop point.
Depth depends on the use and the subgrade. For light traffic like a shed pad, 4 inches of compacted crushed gravel is common. For driveways and heavy loads, 6 to 8 inches or more is typical. Factor in the softness of the existing ground.
The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet with firm, dry ground. If the access is too narrow or soft, the driver will unload as close as safely possible to the requested spot.
