3/8 Inch Crushed Stone for Pathways in Zellwood, FL

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Zellwood, FL online by the ton or the yard. Florida Rock Supply drops limerock base, washed stone and soil at your gate. Central Florida ground is deep quartz sand, loose on the ridges and wet on the flats. Pick your material, set the quantity, and we haul it.

Most paths here start with a compacted base and finish with a finer, walkable surface. That is the order that holds up.

Materials for Zellwood Projects

The fines you finish with decide how firm a Zellwood path feels underfoot. Limestone screenings are the workhorse. Florida screenings are crushed limestone fines that lock together under a plate compactor and stay firm underfoot, even after a summer soaking. Use them for paver bedding, flagstone setting and the top inch of a garden path.

Start the path right and bed it on limerock base, the standard Florida base rock. It is crushed limestone graded down to fines and compacts hard over sand, so it will not pump or rut when the water table rises. Build a driveway, parking pad or shed pad on the same material.

Top a compacted base with 3/8" Crushed Stone for a clean walking surface. It also beds pipes and handles fine drainage. For a softer look, 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas and borders, and it drains well under downspouts.

Where a path needs to shed water, line the trench with Drain Rock or #57 stone. Both move water away from foundations, patios and pools. Bed the joints of a paver walk with Mason Sand, then sweep it in.

Ground and Conditions in Zellwood

A thin base fails first at the edges. Sand migrates, the surface ruts, and the path turns to loose grit after one storm. That is the failure mode on flat lots here, where a hardpan layer sits under the sand and holds water.

A deeper base and good drainage keep it firm. Excavate to a firm layer, compact limerock base in lifts, then finish with screenings or 3/8 inch stone. On wet flats, add a drainage layer so the base never sits in standing water.

Ridge sand drains fast and needs less stone. Flatwoods sand sits wet for part of the year, so build deeper and crown the surface. Work runs year round, but the rainy season from late spring into October slows grading, and hurricane season runs June through November. Schedule base work around the afternoon storms.

Delivery to Zellwood and the Surrounding Area

Choose tons or yards before you order. Sold by the ton, you are ordering weight. Sold by the yard, you buy volume. Loose dry sand and stone run lighter per yard than wet material, so match the unit to how you measured.

Estimate quantity by length times width times depth. A narrow path of fines needs only a small load, so enter its length, width and depth in the calculator. Add a little for compaction and spillage.

We deliver bulk loads across Zellwood and Orange County, including Orlando, Apopka, Ocoee, Winter Garden and Winter Park. Have the drop spot clear and reachable. A hard, level pad speeds the dump and keeps the pile where you want it.
