Gravel & Rock in Orlando

Most gravel and rock jobs around Orlando call for several tons of material. With about 53 inches of rainfall each year, choosing the right stone and depth matters for drainage and washout control. Gravel Monkey delivers any quantity from 1 to 40+ tons by dump truck straight to your address, with pricing calculated by ZIP at checkout.

Whether you need a little or a lot, we get the material to you without a trip to a yard. The truck drops the load exactly where you mark the spot on the property.

Gravel and Rock Options for Orlando Properties

Our gravel and rock range from small pea gravel to large river rock, so you can match the texture and size to the job. Each product is sold by the ton and delivered in a single load or split across multiple drops.

How Orlando's Climate and Soil Affect Your Gravel Project

Orlando sees about 77 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days means you should schedule the delivery onto firm ground, not after a rain. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point. Soils mapped in the Orlando area are commonly poorly drained, so you may need more base stone under the surface layer to keep the finished project from settling unevenly.

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 across the surface. That difference makes drainage and a deeper base more critical here than elsewhere. On top of that, only about 2 days a year drop below freezing, so the ground does not heave from freeze-thaw. Your main concern is moving water, not ice.

Orange County permitted about 4,810 single-family homes in 2024, which means many new lots need driveway and path material. Whether you are building fresh or refreshing an existing yard, the local rainfall and soil call for stone that handles runoff and stays put.

Estimating the Amount of Gravel or Rock You Need

Use our material calculators to convert your area and desired depth into tons. Do not guess: the calculator accounts for compaction and the specific density of each product, so you order the right amount the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gravel and Rock in Orlando

Is Orlando wet enough that drainage should drive the choice?

Yes. With about 53 inches of rain a year and soils that are often poorly drained, your project needs stone that moves water away from structures and prevents washout. Drain rock or 2-4" river rock on slopes is a smart choice.

Does the length of the freeze season in Orlando change what I should order?

No. The area sees only about 2 freezing days a year, so frost heave is not a concern. Base stone depth is driven by drainage and load, not by ice.

Do you take orders from businesses as well as homeowners?

Yes. Gravel Monkey delivers to homeowners, contractors, landscapers and commercial properties. Any business can order by the ton with the same online checkout.

Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?

We deliver to any address the truck can access, including rural routes and unincorporated areas. Access needs a road width of at least 12 feet and a firm surface to the drop point.
