Why Coarsegold Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Coarsegold, a mountain-edge community with a population of 9,910, is seeing steady residential updates as homeowners and small contractors take on grading, foundation, and landscaping projects. With a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 35.71 inches of rain, residents benefit from a long working season (USDA hardiness zone 8b) but still need materials that handle both dry spells and seasonal downpours. That steady demand drives interest in dependable aggregates. Homeowners choose quality fill dirt because it supplies low-organic, compactable material for building up pads, backfilling foundations, leveling yards, and prepping septic or driveway bases—reducing settlement risk and helping manage surface drainage compared with topsoil.Popular Projects in Coarsegold This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Coarsegold Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Coarsegold.
Per cubic yard, basic fill dirt is usually cheaper than gravel because it is unprocessed soil. However, fill dirt is not a good wearing surface for driveways in Coarsegold's foothill climate; you will likely need to add and compact a gravel or crushed-rock base on top, which increases total cost. For a durable driveway most homeowners choose gravel or crushed stone for the surface layer rather than using only fill dirt.
Fill dirt is subsoil used to raise grade, fill holes, or build berms and is not intended as a finished driving surface. Gravel (crushed stone, road base, or crushed rock) is angular and compacts to form a stable driving surface. For a driveway in Coarsegold, use fill dirt only for grade correction and drainage work, and use a compacted gravel or base rock layer for the driving surface.
Fill dirt does not harden like concrete on its own. If you need a stabilized base, contractors in the West California region typically recommend a crushed-rock base, crusher-run, or cement/lime stabilization of aggregate—not plain fill dirt. Hello Gravel can help source appropriate base materials, but check local availability and ask a contractor about stabilization options for your zip code.
The least expensive option is typically native or subsoil 'fill dirt' hauled from local sources because it requires little processing. That said, using only cheap fill dirt for a driveway base is not recommended; you still need a proper compacted aggregate surface for durability. Get a quote for both fill dirt and base rock so you can compare total project costs.
Prices vary by supplier, season, and exact delivery location, but a tri-axle truck in the region commonly carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards. Typical delivered cost for basic fill dirt in areas like Coarsegold often falls in a broad range; contact Hello Gravel with your zip code for an accurate, up-to-date delivered price and to see if free delivery applies in your area.
To estimate volume: 1,000 sq ft at 6 inches depth requires about 18.5 cubic yards of material. Multiply that volume by your delivered price per cubic yard to get a material estimate; you will also need compaction and possibly hauling/spread labor which adds cost. For a precise quote including delivery and recommendations for Coarsegold soils, request a quote on our site or call our team.
A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft; at 4 inches depth you need about 5 cubic yards, and at 6 inches about 7.4 cubic yards. Fill dirt alone is usually cheaper, but for a driveway you should budget for gravel/base rock plus compaction and possible excavation, which raises the cost. Contact Hello Gravel for material pricing and consult a local contractor for labor and compaction estimates in Coarsegold.
You can add small amounts of fill dirt for minor leveling, but larger lifts require staged placement and compaction. Coarsegold's foothill soils can be variable and may hold moisture seasonally, so proper compaction and drainage are important to avoid settling. For driveways and structural fills, plan on at least mechanical compaction and possibly removing poor organic topsoil before placing fill dirt.
Yes, fill dirt should be compacted in lifts to reduce future settling and achieve stable grades. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery and driver tailgate spreading may be available but we do not provide mechanical compaction services; hire a local contractor or rent a compactor for proper compaction in Coarsegold. Ask your contractor how many passes and what compaction target they recommend based on the planned use.
Bagged fill dirt is usually intended for small patching and landscaping touch-ups; a 50 lb bag covers only a very small area a few inches deep. For projects larger than a few square feet or deeper than a couple inches, a truckload is far more cost effective in Coarsegold. Use bags for minor repairs or planters, and order a truckload for yard reshaping, grading, or driveway subgrade work.
Delivered prices depend on supplier, distance, and seasonal demand, but homeowners in the Coarsegold area typically see a range of delivered prices. For an accurate current rate for your address, use Hello Gravel's zip-code check on our site or request a personalized quote; we will connect you with local suppliers and show delivery fees up front.
No, 2 inches of fill dirt is not sufficient for a driveway. Driveways require a properly compacted subgrade and several inches of compacted base rock or crushed stone; fill dirt can be used to build grade but should not be the wearing surface. For Coarsegold climates and soils, consult a contractor about recommended depths for base and surface layers based on expected vehicle loads.
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.
