Default Drive dump truck over lawn?

I am getting 5 tons of modified (crushed) stone delivered via dump
truck for a patio. I already have the area excavated, so most
convenient would be for the truck to dump right in the hole...but
would require driving over the rest of the lawn to get there. It's a
small(er) truck, but I still wonder if it is going to destroy the
lawn, especially since it rained hard last night. Any suggestions? I
really don't feel like transporting 5 tons of stone by myself if I
don't have to.

Thanks,


Others mentioned the rut issue. No one mentioned what's under the lawn.
Under no conditions run it over a septic system/leech field.
