Why Sea Level Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sea Level's city population is 210, situated within a metro area of 2.3+ million residents and experiencing a growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate combines 228 sunny days per year with 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, creating long windows for outdoor work but also periodic wet periods that affect grading and drainage. That pattern drives steady construction and landscaping demand—homeowners repairing yards, raising grades, or adding patios and driveways need predictable base materials. Quality fill dirt matters here because well-graded, low-organic fill compacts consistently, reduces long-term settling, and helps manage erosion and surface runoff when pRoperties face alternating sun and rain.Popular Projects in Sea Level This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sea Level Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Sea Level.
Costs vary by supplier, distance, and project size, but expect material plus delivery in Sea Level to commonly run between $10 and $40 per ton for fill dirt, with delivery fees from about $50 to $200 on top of that for a single truck. A small driveway project that needs 20-30 tons will typically cost roughly $300 to $1,200 in total as a rough estimate. Check your zip code on Hello Gravel for exact pricing and avaIlable next-day options.
For coastal Sea Level, choose well-graded, low-organic fill dirt or engineered fill with good drainage—avoid high-organic topsoil that will settle and hold water. In high water table areas mix in coarse sand or a granular layer beneath the fill and compact in lifts to improve stability and reduce settlement. Consider a gravel or crusher-run wearing surface over the final fill for driveways.
Raising 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches is about 500 cubic feet, or roughly 18.5 cubic yards. Using typical compacted fill dirt weights (about 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard), you will need approximately 22 to 28 tons. Always buy a little extra (5-10%) to allow for compaction and grading, and confirm calculations with your contractor.
Local suppliers and haulers serving Sea Level typically deliver by dump truck; Hello Gravel works with these suppliers and shows delivery avaIlability by zip code. Minimum orders are usually 3 tons on our platform, and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, though spreading is not guaranteed. For larger spreading needs many suppliers can quote a separate spreading service.
Crusher run or crushed stone is the preferred base for driveways and load-bearing surfaces in Sea Level because it provides better drainage and load distribution. Fill dirt is appropriate for raising grade and non-structural backfill but must be placed in compacted lifts and tested if used under foundations. For foundations and road base, follow engineer or local code recommendations and consider a geotechnical review in high water table areas.
Fill dirt alone is not a long-term erosion control solution on coastal slopes; it is prone to wAshout if not stabilized. For Sea Level pRoperties use graded, coarse fill at slope toes, compacted lifts, erosion control fabric, vegetation or riprap as appropriate, and pRoper drainage to direct water away from slopes. Consult local soil conservation or a civil engineer for slope-specific recommendations.
Permitting depends on scope and location. Large fills, coastal grading, work in wetlands, or projects that change drainage often require county or sTate permits and possibly a certified erosion control plan in coastal areas near Sea Level. Check with your local city or county planning, zoning, and environmental offices before ordering large volumes, and include permit planning time in your schedule.
Fill dirt used as a driveway surface will deteriorate faster than gravel or crushed stone; expect more frequent grading and topping, often every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic and drainage. For a longer-lasting surface in Sea Level's coastal conditions use a pRoper base (crusher run) and a wear surface (gravel) rather than plain fill dirt. Regular maintenance of drainage and regrading will extend life regardless of material.
Fill dirt can be used for general backfill, but septic drain fields and trenches usually require clean, coarse material (sand or gravel) and compaction per local health department specs. Contractors should follow local public health and building codes, use low-organic, well-draining fill where permitted, and avoid clay-rich or organic soils near leach fields. Always verify acceptable materials with the county health department before backfilling.
As a rough estimate in the Sea Level area fill dirt material commonly ranges from about $10 to $40 per ton, which is roughly $12 to $50 per cubic yard depending on compaction and moisture. Delivery for a single truckload typically adds $50 to $200 depending on distance, size of truck, and local supplier rates. For exact per-ton or per-yard pricing and delivery fees, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel to see local supplier quotes.

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.
