Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Deerfield Beach address and unloads right where you point.
Contractors order crushed gravel by the truckload and know the size that fits the job. Homeowners often buy for a single driveway or pad and want the right grade without guesswork. Deerfield Beach gets about 63 inches of rain a year, so drainage planning matters for both groups.
This page covers the crushed gravel sizes we deliver to Deerfield Beach and the factors that affect your choice. Whether you need a compacted base for a new shed or an access road across wet ground, the advice helps you pick the right product.
Crushed gravel comes in sizes from fine dust up to 3 inches. The right size depends on the load it must carry and the subgrade condition. Here are the sizes we deliver to Deerfield Beach.

|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Great under pavers or as a base for light-traffic areas such as patios. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Workhorse size for base and drives | Works well for driveways and as the base layer for most residential projects. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Ideal for heavy vehicle access roads and structural fills near buildings. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Used as a stabilizing layer over soft ground before adding finer gravel. |

Deerfield Beach averages 0 days below freezing each year. With no frost heave, the ground stays stable year-round, but drainage still determines how much base stone you need.
The area gets about 63 inches of precipitation annually. Rain falls on roughly 85 days a year, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point.
Soils mapped in the Deerfield Beach area are commonly poorly drained. You may need more base stone under the surface layer to keep water from softening the subgrade. Ground around Deerfield Beach is in dual hydrologic group B/D: where it is drained it takes water in at a moderate rate; where it is not, water runs across the surface. Drainage planning and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
