Why North Port Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
North Port has a city population of 70,252 and sits inside a rapidly growing West Florida region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million. The area is expanding at a 2.50% annual growth rate, driving steady demand for residential grading, yard repairs, and small-site construction. With a warm climate (hardiness zone 8b), 228 sunny days per year, and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners here face cycles of heavy sun and periodic storms that influence soil stability and landscaping choices. That combination of development pressure and local weather means North Port homeowners increasingly look for dependable aggregates to level yards, raise low spots, and prep foundations for patios and sheds. Fill Dirt is a basic, cost-effective material for reshaping and stabilizing soil in this climate. Its dense composition helps create engineered grades that resist washout during heavy rains and limit settlement under Florida sun and seasonal moisture changes. Hello Gravel connects North Port homeowners with locally sourced fill dirt that reflects regional geology, delivers on scheduled dates, and arrives by professional dump truck—making it easier to get the right volume for backyard fixes, driveway approaches, and building pads without the hassle of coordinating multiple suppliers.Popular Projects in North Port This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - North Port Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in North Port.
Fill dirt is native or quarried soil used to raise or level ground; it typically contains sand, clay, and small rock but little organic material. Unlike topsoil, fill dirt is not meant for planting because it lacks nutrients, and unlike gravel it does not provide drainage or a stable driving surface.
Generally yes — fill dirt is usually less expensive per cubic yard than crushed gravel because it is unprocessed soil. Prices vary by supplier and delivery, so compare quotes on Hello Gravel and factor in hauling and spreading costs.
Costs in West Florida typically range depending on quality and delivery, commonly about $10 to $35 per cubic yard (roughly $10 to $30 per ton) delivered. Exact pricing depends on supplier, moisture content, delivery distance, and minimum order — get a local quote through Hello Gravel for a precise price.
A common tri-axle dump truck in our network usually carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of fill dirt (roughly 12 to 18 tons, depending on moisture and material density). You can order multiple truckloads or check volumes in our checkout calculator when planning for larger jobs.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches you need about 9.3 cubic yards of fill dirt. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team to convert that to tons for your specific project and local material density.
It depends on the truck. Most full-size pickups can carry around 0.5 to 1 cubic yard safely by volume, but payload capacity (weight limit) can be the real restriction. For orders larger than a yard or to avoid overloading, use a dump truck delivery through Hello Gravel.
One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet — visually about a 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft pile. That equals roughly 9 to 10 standard wheelbarrow loads (wheelbarrows average 3 to 4 cubic feet).
Yes, fill dirt can be used to level low spots, but do it in layers (lifts) and compact each lift to reduce settling. In West Florida’s sandy soils and higher water table, finish the surface with a few inches of topsoil for planting and check local grade and drainage to avoid creating standing water.
You can, but the fill dirt must be properly compacted and graded first to prevent mixing and sinking. We recommend a compacted fill layer, a geotextile fabric if needed, and then a compacted gravel base of several inches for a stable driveway.
No — 2 inches of gravel is usually too thin for a driveway. Over properly compacted fill dirt, a gravel driveway typically needs 3 to 6 inches of compacted base depending on traffic, with thicker sections for heavy vehicles.
A tri-axle load of about 10 to 12 cubic yards equals roughly 90 to 120 standard wheelbarrow loads. In pickup terms, that’s roughly 10 to 20 full-size truck beds depending on truck size and how full you load each bed.
Buying bulk through a local supplier and arranging dump-truck delivery is usually the most cost-effective option for projects larger than a few yards. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers, see transparent delivery fees, and take advantage of minimum order options (our minimum is 3 tons) to find the best price for your needs.
Expect some settling, especially with sandy or mixed soils common in North Port, so place fill in 4-6 inch lifts and compact each lift to reduce future settlement. For structural projects or deep fills, consider professional compaction testing and local permitting requirements to meet site-specific codes.
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.
