A pallet of beach pebbles from Beach Pebbles Direct runs between $1,192.50 and $2,195.00 as of today, depending on color. Natural colors like Mexican Beach Pebbles and Diamond White sit at the low end; polished finishes like Tiger Striped and Super Polished Black cost more because of the extra processing involved.
Below is the full price breakdown by color, what each pallet actually covers, and what it costs to get one delivered to your driveway in Florida or the Southeast.
What does a pallet of beach pebbles cost, color by color?
Here's the current per-pallet pricing for all nine colors we stock, all sold by the pallet with a one-pallet minimum:
| Color | Pallet Weight | Price per Pallet | Price per Sq Ft (2" depth) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mexican Beach Pebbles | 1.5 tons | $1,192.50 | $7.95 |
| Diamond White | 1.5 tons | $1,275.00 | $8.50 |
| Snow White | 1.5 tons | $1,295.00 | $8.63 |
| Mini Mixed | 1.5 tons | $1,325.00 | $8.83 |
| Mixed | 1.5 tons | $1,395.00 | $9.30 |
| Salt and Pepper | 1.5 tons | $1,425.00 | $9.50 |
| Polished Black | 1.4 tons | $1,645.00 | $11.75 |
| Super Polished Black | 1.4 tons | $1,945.00 | $13.89 |
| Tiger Striped | 1.4 tons | $2,195.00 | $15.68 |
Those prices are current as of this post and can change, so treat them as a planning number rather than a locked quote. Since there's no online checkout, every order is confirmed with a live quote and paid by invoice.
How many square feet does one pallet actually cover?
At the standard installed depth of 2 inches, a 1.5 ton pallet (3,000 lbs) covers about 150 square feet. The seven colors sold on 1.5 ton pallets — Mexican Beach Pebbles, Diamond White, Snow White, Mini Mixed, Mixed, and Salt and Pepper — all cover the same 150 square feet per pallet.
The three polished colors — Polished Black, Super Polished Black, and Tiger Striped — ship on 1.4 ton pallets (2,800 lbs) and cover about 140 square feet at 2 inches deep.
To figure out how many pallets you need, measure your bed or path in square feet and divide by 150 (or 140 for a polished color). A 600 square foot planting bed, for example, needs four pallets of Mexican Beach Pebbles, or about 4.3 pallets of Tiger Striped — round up, since partial pallets aren't an option.
Why do the polished colors cost more per square foot?
Polished Black runs $11.75 per square foot, Super Polished Black runs $13.89, and Tiger Striped runs $15.68 — roughly 50% to double the cost of the natural colors. That's the cost of the polishing process itself, which is a separate step after the stone is sized and washed.
One thing to know before you commit to a polished color: it can fade with prolonged full-sun exposure. If you're covering a west-facing bed with no shade, a natural finish like Mexican Beach Pebbles or Salt and Pepper will hold its look longer than a polished one. Polished colors tend to do best in planters, shaded beds, or accent areas rather than wide open sun.
Is there a minimum order, and does the price per pallet drop if I buy more?
The minimum order is one pallet — there's no way to buy a partial pallet or a bag quantity. If your project needs more than three pallets, volume pricing kicks in and the per-pallet rate comes down. That discount isn't listed online; it's applied when we put together your quote, so a 6-pallet order and a 15-pallet order won't price out the same per unit until you ask.
What does delivery cost, and how fast will it actually show up?
Delivery is quoted separately from the stone itself and depends on your location and order size:
- Orders under four pallets ship LTL freight with curbside unloading.
- Orders of four pallets or more ship flatbed.
- Most of Florida gets next-day delivery.
- The rest of the Southeast typically sees delivery in 2-3 days.
- We also ship to the Caribbean.
We run yards in Jacksonville (7643 Gate Parkway) and Miami, which is why most Florida addresses get stone the next business day rather than waiting on a long freight haul.
