A full tri-axle dump load in the area usually holds about 10 to 15 cubic yards, so delivered cost commonly falls in the $250 to $900 range depending on exact yards, haul distance, and site restrictions. Local truck size, material density and any site fees can push the total up or down, so get a delivered quote for the most accurate price.

Local tri-axle dump trucks commonly carry roughly 10 to 15 cubic yards of loose fill dirt, though some trucks run a little smaller or larger. That volume generally equates to about 12 to 20 tons depending on moisture and compaction. Confirm the specific truck size when you request delivery so you know how many loads you need.

Fill dirt is usually the cheaper option per cubic yard when the goal is simply raising grade or filling low spots. Gravel tends to cost more but is the right choice where drainage and a durable surface are needed, such as for driveways. For driveways we recommend building up with compactable fill or suitable base material and topping with gravel rather than using only loose fill dirt.

Use fill dirt to raise grade or fill trenches where you plan to put landscaping, sod, or concrete, because it compacts reasonably well and is cost effective. Use gravel for driveways, drainage swales, and anywhere you need water to drain or a stable driving surface; gravel provides structural support and improved drainage. In coastal Volusia County areas with a high water table, consider engineered base materials and compaction for any driveway or structural fill work.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 162 sq ft at 2" depth, 81 sq ft at 4", and 54 sq ft at 6" depth. A ton of fill dirt is roughly 0.7 to 0.9 cubic yards depending on moisture, so one ton will cover about 115 to 145 sq ft at 2", 57 to 72 sq ft at 4", and 38 to 49 sq ft at 6" (approximate). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator for a precise estimate based on the type of fill and local density.

Using the local per-yard range, 10 cubic yards typically runs about $250 to $600 delivered, before any special site fees. Add any extra charges for tight access, long offload distance, or permits — those site fees commonly add $50 to a few hundred dollars. For a firm price enter your address on Hello Gravel or request a detailed quote so we can include any access or permit considerations.

Drivers may be able to offer tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request it at checkout but it is not guaranteed for safety and liability reasons. For contracted spreading, grading and compaction we can often arrange local crews; typical contractor rates vary widely but expect labor charges in the range of $50 to $100 per hour or roughly $5 to $30 per cubic yard depending on scope and compaction equipment. Ask Customer Service for local spreading/compaction options and a combined materials-plus-labor quote.

For very small patch jobs, 50 lb bags are convenient, but bulk delivery becomes far more cost effective once you need the equivalent of roughly 10 to 20 bags or more. A 50 lb bag contains only a few tenths of a cubic foot; for context, a 50 lb bag of gravel or sand will cover about 3 sq ft at a 2" depth, so many bags add up quickly. If your job needs more than a few square feet at common depths, request a bulk quote to compare price and delivery logistics.

Yes. Narrow streets, HOA rules, weight limits on neighborhood drives, culvert restrictions, and limited curb space can increase delivery difficulty and add fees or require an alternate truck. Wetlands or large fill projects may trigger Volusia County permitting or erosion control requirements that affect timing and cost, so check with the county building or environmental office before a big fill. Provide site notes and photos when you order so Hello Gravel can quote accurately and flag any permit or access issues.
