Why Tuolumne Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tuolumne is a small mountain community with a city population of 3,230 and sits within a metro area of 2.5+ million. The town is seeing measured expansion, with a growth rate of 0.70% annually. Local climate—228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall—combined with a hardiness zone of 8b, means homeowners face cycles of wet winters and sun-driven dry periods that affect soil stability and drainage. That pattern drives steady demand for dependable aggregates: residents raise grade around foundations, level yards, and repair driveways after storm runoff. For many homeowners, quality fill dirt is essential to create a stable base, control settling, and prepare sites for planting or paving, so clear guidance on volumes and compaction matters as much as delivery convenience.Popular Projects in Tuolumne This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tuolumne Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Tuolumne.
Prices vary by supplier, truck distance, and season, but expect to pay a per-ton price plus delivery. In Tuolumne you’ll commonly see local per-ton material costs lower than urban centers, with total delivered price affected by long hauls into this rural area; contact Hello Gravel for a zip-specific quote and our minimum order is 3 tons.
For general fill and grading use a clean, well-graded fill dirt with limited organics; for driveway base use fill dirt compacted and topped with road base or crushed rock; for erosion control combine fill with drainage features or use specialized engineered fill or riprap in steep or high-flow areas common in Tuolumne’s foothills.
A 1,000 sq ft area at 6 inches equals about 18.5 cubic yards (500 cubic feet). Using standard estimates of 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt, you’d need roughly 22 to 28 tons; order a little extra to account for settlement and grading losses.
Some local contractors and suppliers offer spreading and compaction, but dump truck drivers generally only provide tailgate spreading at their discretion. When ordering with Hello Gravel you can request spreading at checkout, but it is not guaranteed; for guaranteed compaction hire a local contractor or equipment rental.
In wet winters fill dirt can soften, settle, and erode more easily than crushed rock or road base, which shed water better. For vehicle areas in Tuolumne’s climate, use compacted fill dirt as bulk fill but finish with road base or crushed rock for durability and drainage.
Large fills, grading work near slopes, or changes to drainage often trigger permits or inspections from Tuolumne County. For work close to foundations, septic systems, or public right-of-way, check with Tuolumne County Planning and Building before ordering; a geotechnical report or compaction testing may be required for structural work.
Because Tuolumne is a small, rural community, trucking distance can be a major part of the total cost. Local suppliers sourced through Hello Gravel help limit long hauls, but remote suppliers or specialty materials will add per-mile trucking charges; get a zip-based quote to see exact delivery fees.
A driveway with only fill dirt will need frequent grading and repairs and will perform poorly under traffic over time. Properly compacted fill with a capped layer of road base or crushed rock will last several years with routine maintenance—regrading, adding material, and addressing drainage after wet winters will extend its life.
Washed fill dirt is rarely necessary; standard fill dirt is usually fine for subsurface fills and grading in Tuolumne. If you need a clean, dust-free surface or are working near landscaped or visible areas, use a gravel cap, road base, or engineered fill and consider dust control options.
Check Tuolumne County contractor listings, local Facebook groups, or ask Hello Gravel for referrals to local haulers and contractors. Verify licenses, insurance, references, and ask for examples of similar driveway or grading work in the Tuolumne foothills.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
