Frequently Asked Questions - Buena Park Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Buena Park.
Fill dirt is native subsoil with minimal organic matter, used to raise grade, fill holes, or create a stable subbase before landscaping or hardscapes. In Buena Park projects it is commonly used to level yards, build up low spots that collect water, and prepare areas before laying gravel, pavers, or concrete, but it must be compacted in layers for long-term stability.
To estimate cubic yards, use this rule: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324. For a 10x10 area (100 sq ft), 2 inches of fill is about 0.62 cubic yards, and 6 inches is about 1.85 cubic yards; convert to tons using roughly 1.0 to 1.35 tons per cubic yard depending on moisture and compaction.
A typical tri-axle delivery carries roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards of loose fill dirt, which will cover about 1,620 to 2,268 sq ft at 2 inches depth or about 270 to 378 sq ft at 12 inches depth. Exact loads vary by local supplier and truck type, so check your Hello Gravel order details for the delivered cubic yards.
You can place fill dirt on existing soil, but you should first remove organic topsoil, vegetation, and debris and then add fill in 4 to 8-inch lifts, compacting each lift. In Buena Park's climate and local soils, proper compaction prevents future settling and avoids drainage problems that can lead to puddles.
For most projects you should remove the top 2 to 6 inches of organic soil if you need a stable subgrade; simply adding fill over roots or mulch risks future settling. For structural work like building pads or driveways, consult a soils or civil engineer and follow local code requirements for excavation and compaction.
No, fill dirt compacts and becomes firmer but it does not harden like concrete. If you need a structural, non-moving surface, you should use engineered fill, gravel, or a paved surface on top of properly compacted fill and follow compaction and drainage recommendations.
For wet or poorly draining spots, clean granular fill (sharp sand or crushed rock) or engineered structural fill is usually better than plain subsoil because it improves drainage and reduces long-term settlement. In Buena Park low spots, you may also need drainage solutions like swales or perforated drain lines; consider a soil test or contractor advice for persistent wet areas.
Depth depends on use: for a residential driveway expect to build a stable subgrade with several inches of compacted fill plus a 4 to 8-inch compacted aggregate base; the fill layers below should be compacted in 4 to 8-inch lifts. For patios and light landscaping, 4 to 6 inches of compacted fill dirt may be adequate if the subgrade is stable and well-compacted.
Two inches of fill dirt can correct slight low spots but is generally not enough for major regrading or areas that must support structures. For long-term stability and to avoid settling in Buena Park soils, plan for deeper fills placed in compacted lifts and expect some settlement over the first year.
Prices vary by local supplier, seasonal demand, and quantity; Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing when you enter your zip code and requires a 3-ton minimum order. Deliveries in Buena Park are typically by tri-axle dump truck, standard delivery takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers will only spread if it is safe and practical for the site and no guarantees are provided. For precise grading or finished surfaces in Buena Park, hire a landscaper or excavator after delivery for proper spreading and compaction.
Use the rule of thumb that loose fill dirt typically weighs about 1.0 to 1.35 tons per cubic yard, depending on moisture and soil type. Multiply the cubic yards you need by that range to estimate tons, and use Hello Gravel's online calculator or contact our team for a more tailored estimate for Buena Park soils.

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.
