Be careful: the cheapest loose fill-dirt may not be suitable as a structural base—plan to spend more if you need compactible or engineered fill for a driveway.

Fill-dirt is fine for raising grade, but for a driveway base you typically want compactible crushed rock or road base rather than loose fill-dirt. Hello Gravel suppliers can recommend the correct material based on your project—be ready to describe load conditions, drainage, and whether the area will be compacted.

Use cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches)/324 to calculate needs. As an example, a 10-cubic-yard load covers about 3,240 sq ft at 1" depth, 1,620 sq ft at 2", 1,080 sq ft at 3", and 540 sq ft at 6"—adjust for your truck size (tri-axle trucks commonly haul 10–12 yd3).

Fill-dirt is generally less expensive than pea gravel; delivered fill-dirt in the California region often runs roughly $25–$75/yd3, while pea gravel typically runs higher, often $40–$120/yd3 delivered. Minimum orders on Hello Gravel start at 3 tons, and final pricing depends on supplier, distance, and site access.

Fill-dirt by itself is not recommended for lasting pothole repairs because it doesn’t compact into a durable surface and can wash out in rains. For durable patching use compactable crushed rock, cold-patch asphalt, or a proper asphalt repair product; your supplier or contractor can help you select a material suited to traffic and local weather in Riverview West.

There are materials like flowable fill (controlled low-strength material), cement-treated base, and fast-setting repair mortars that harden more than loose fill. These are less commonly stocked as bulk fill but some suppliers or local contractors can provide them; contact Hello Gravel or your supplier to check availability for small pours or patch material in the Riverview West area.

A cubic yard is 27 cubic feet—while it may physically fit in some pickup beds, the weight (often 1.2–1.6 tons per yd3 depending on moisture and soil type) can exceed a pickup’s safe payload. For safety and convenience we recommend dump-truck delivery for most fill-dirt orders, especially when ordering the Hello Gravel minimum (3 tons) or more.

Use cubic yards = (area ft2 * depth inches)/324. For 1,000 sq ft you’d need about 3.1 yd3 at 1", 6.2 yd3 at 2", 9.3 yd3 at 3", and 18.5 yd3 at 6". At typical California delivered rates for fill-dirt (~$25–$75/yd3) that equals roughly $75–$230 for 1" depth, $150–$465 for 2", and $230–$700 for 3"—final cost depends on supplier, access, and delivery timing.
