Fill Dirt in Coconut Creek, FL

A single tri-axle truckload of loose fill dirt to Coconut Creek typically contains about 10–14 cubic yards and, delivered, often runs in the range of about $150–$500 depending on haul distance, supplier, and seasonal demand. Exact cost depends on your zip code, whether the material is screened or compacted, and whether spreading or special access is required.

In West Florida, delivered fill dirt commonly ranges from about $15–$40 per cubic yard for typical bulk orders, with larger orders often pricing toward the lower end. Regional sourcing, truckload size, screening/compaction, and site access affect price, so specific quotes for Coconut Creek addresses are recommended.

Suppliers can sometimes perform tailgate spreading, but it is provided at the driver’s discretion for safety reasons; you should request spreading at checkout and note any site constraints. If the supplier agrees to spread, there may be an additional fee—commonly $50–$200—depending on the amount and difficulty, and Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services.

To raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches you need about 9.3 cubic yards (1000 ft2 × 0.25 ft ÷ 27 = 9.26 cu yd); we recommend ordering 10 cu yd to allow for settling and compaction. Using a typical West Florida delivered price of $20–$35 per cubic yard, material cost would be about $200–$350, plus any delivery or spreading fees shown on your quote.

Fill dirt is generally less expensive per cubic yard than paved driveway base materials like crushed stone, but it is not a substitute for proper driveway base because it lacks the drainage and load-bearing properties of compacted gravel. For grading or raising low spots, fill dirt is cost-effective; for a driveway base you should use crushed stone or a specified base material.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order on the platform is 3 tons, and many suppliers in West Florida sell by the cubic yard with tri-axle truck minimums around 10–12 cubic yards. Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; local supplier scheduling may affect exact timing.

Small residential deliveries for simple fills usually do not require a permit, but larger grading, changes to drainage, or work near wetlands and easements in Coconut Creek may require city or Broward County permits and inspections. Disposal or environmental fees can apply if materials are contaminated or must be taken to a special facility, so check with Coconut Creek building or permitting offices before major projects.

Screened and compacted fill dirt typically carries a premium of about $3–$10 per cubic yard over plain, loose fill because of the extra processing and handling. The benefit is fewer rocks and better compaction characteristics, which can reduce settlement and grading work for driveways or structural fills.

Tri-axle dump trucks are the common delivery method and may not access narrow lanes, steep driveways, or gated entries in Coconut Creek; suppliers can often switch to smaller trucks or hand-load, but those options usually incur extra fees. To reduce surprises, add notes and photos of access at checkout or contact our team so suppliers can plan the appropriate truck and quote any access charges.

A cubic yard of fill dirt typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on moisture and compaction, so the equivalent can vary by supplier and region. Hello Gravel lists a 3-ton minimum to align with supplier and trucking constraints, but the platform also quotes by cubic yard for most residential projects so you can see both volume and weight-based pricing.
