Why Brentwood Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Brentwood has a city population of 64,980 and sits inside a growing metro area of 2.7+ million residents that is expanding at about 1.85% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners and contractors in the area are able to work outdoors much of the year and are actively pursuing landscaping and construction projects. That steady local demand drives a need for reliable base materials. Fill dirt is commonly used to raise grades, backfill foundations, build pads, and correct uneven yards. Homeowners choose quality fill dirt to ensure good compaction, minimal organic content, and predictable settling — all important in Brentwood’s growing, sun-heavy environment where proper drainage and stable subgrades reduce future maintenance.Popular Projects in Brentwood This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Brentwood Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Brentwood.
Yes, Hello Gravel delivers Fill Dirt to Brentwood, CA when service is available in your zip code. Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST (confirm Pacific Time cutoff at checkout); minimum orders start at 3 tons. Delivery is by local contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle) and fees depend on distance, load size, and site access — request a quote in checkout to see exact pricing and scheduling.
Use this simple formula: Area (sq ft) × Depth (ft) ÷ 27 = cubic yards. For example, to add 2 inches (0.167 ft) across a 1,000 sq ft yard you need about 6.2 cubic yards of Fill Dirt. Delivered cost for Fill Dirt in the Brentwood area varies by source and haul distance; expect a broad range, so get a tailored quote from Hello Gravel — our material calculator can also estimate quantities and pricing for your address.
You should be careful placing Fill Dirt next to a house. Adding soil that slopes toward your foundation can cause drainage issues and increase risk of moisture intrusion, so always slope fill away from foundations at least 5% (roughly 6 inches over 10 feet) and avoid piling soil against siding. For significant fills near a foundation, check with the City of Brentwood building department and your HOA, and consult a civil engineer or contractor if the fill depth or load is substantial.
Properly compacted, clean Fill Dirt is not a food source and by itself does not attract pests or snakes. Loose piles, organic debris, or tall vegetation on new fill can create hiding spots, so keep fills compacted, remove brush and debris, and finish surfaces with gravel, rock, turf, or planting to reduce habitat. If pests are a concern, ask local pest control or landscapers for site-specific prevention measures before final grading.
For general leveling or raising beds, landscapers in Brentwood commonly use Fill Dirt in 4 to 6 inch lifts compacted between lifts, with a final 2 to 3 inches of quality topsoil or screened loam for planting. For pathways, a compacted fill layer of 4 to 6 inches topped with 2 to 3 inches of crushed rock or decomposed granite provides stability and drainage. When in doubt, choose clean, screened fill free of large organic matter for low-maintenance results and improved compaction.
Local landscapers typically source Fill Dirt from nearby quarries, soil suppliers, and recycled construction sites to keep haul costs down. Yes, you can buy Fill Dirt in bulk by the truck through Hello Gravel — we connect you with local suppliers and haulers and coordinate dump truck delivery; enter your zip code to check availability and minimum order requirements.
Brentwood is in USDA hardiness zone roughly 9b/10a (Mediterranean climate), so many warm-season and drought-tolerant plants do well. If you add Fill Dirt, blend or top with quality topsoil or amended planting mix for beds — plain fill often lacks organic matter and nutrients needed for plants, so add compost or topsoil where you will plant to help existing plants adapt and avoid planting directly into raw fill.
Yes, Brentwood may require permits or inspections for grading, retaining walls, or large fills that change lot drainage or exceed certain cut/fill limits, and many HOAs have design rules about yard changes. Before major filling or regrading, contact the City of Brentwood building or public works department and review your HOA guidelines; Hello Gravel can help you estimate quantities but cannot advise on permits.
The common '3-3-3' guideline for mulch typically refers to keeping mulch about 3 inches deep and maintaining a small clearance (a few inches) from tree trunks or plant stems to prevent rot. That idea applies to Fill Dirt in the sense that you should not mound soil up against trunks or stems; keep a small gap at the base of plants and use well-draining soil or topsoil for planting to protect root collars and prevent moisture-related problems.
Higher-end projects in Brentwood often use screened or engineered fill, structural fill with geotextile fabric, laser grading, and mechanical compaction to tight tolerances, sometimes combined with soil testing and permits. Costs vary by material quality, haul distance, and labor; expect a wide range depending on scope, so request detailed site quotes — Hello Gravel can supply materials and delivery while landscapers or civil contractors provide precision grading and compaction services.
Measure area and desired depth, use Area × Depth ÷ 27 to convert to cubic yards, and add 5-10% for compaction and waste. Request delivery notes for placement access, consider asking the driver about tailgate spreading (driver discretion), and plan for compaction in lifts; contact Hello Gravel for a quote and use our material calculator to avoid ordering too much or too little.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
