Buy Crushed Stone in Orlando, Florida

Orlando gets about 53 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage and washout planning essential for any project that uses crushed stone. Choosing the right size and depth keeps your base stable and your surface dry.

Whether you are laying a paver patio, building a driveway base, or installing a French drain, the right crushed stone prevents settling and moves water away from structures. This page covers what each size does and how to order it by the ton.

Crushed Stone Sizes for Orlando Projects

The most commonly ordered crushed stone in Orlando is 3/4" Crushed Stone. It works as an all-purpose base for patios, driveways, and drainage layers. The table below lists every size Gravel Monkey delivers, what each one is for, and a quick note on use.

Choosing the Right Crushed Stone for Common Orlando Jobs

Orlando's wet climate means the base layer matters more than the top surface. The table below matches typical projects to the product and depth that work best here.

Orlando Weather and Ground Conditions

Orlando soils mapped in the area are commonly poorly drained. That means water sits longer, so a deeper crushed stone base is often needed to keep the surface layer from softening. How much base you add depends on drainage at your exact site.

About 77 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground avoids having the truck rut the yard. With only about 2 days a year below freezing, the ground rarely heaves, so the base depth needed here is driven by rain, not frost.

The ground around Orlando 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 off the surface and a deeper base matters more. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.

How to Estimate How Much Crushed Stone You Need

Measure the length, width, and desired depth of your project area in feet. Multiply them together and divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then convert to tons based on the stone's weight per yard. Use Gravel Monkey's crushed stone calculator to get a tonnage estimate in seconds.

How do I know how deep to go?

Depth depends on the project and the ground underneath. For a driveway base, 6 to 8 inches of compacted crushed stone is common. For a paver patio, 4 to 6 inches of base plus an inch of screenings. The crushed stone calculator helps you convert depth to tonnage.

What surface does the truck need to reach the drop point?

The delivery truck needs a road or driveway at least 12 feet wide to access the drop point. If the path is narrow, the crew will unload as close as they safely can. You are responsible for confirming the property can handle a heavy truck.
