Why Concord Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Concord, with a city population of 110,082 and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, sits in a growing East Bay corridor that balances suburban neighborhoods with expanding infrastructure. The city’s steady growth (0.70% annually), 228/year sunny days, and moderate annual rainfall of 34.25 inches mean homeowners and contractors are regularly working on regrading, foundation backfill, and landscaping projects. That steady demand makes reliable, locally sourced materials essential: homeowners need fill that compacts predictably, supports planting beds and hardscapes, and helps manage runoff during seasonal rains. In Concord’s hardiness zone 8b, material choice affects drainage and plant performance, so selecting the right fill is a practical step toward long-lasting outdoor work.Popular Projects in Concord This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Concord Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Concord.
Fill dirt is subsoil material (usually low in organic matter) used to raise grades, fill holes, and build berms. In Concord it is commonly used for backyard grading, utility backfill, and leveling areas before installing patios or lawns. It is not a topsoil substitute for planting and is not ideal as the final structural layer for driveways or foundations without proper compaction and testing.
Measure the area in square feet and the desired depth in inches, then use this rule: cubic yards = (square feet x inches deep) / 324. To estimate tons, multiply cubic yards by about 1.1 to 1.3 (one cubic yard of fill dirt typically weighs around 2,000–2,600 lb). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for a tailored estimate.
Delivered prices vary by supplier, season, and haul distance from local pits, so costs can change week to week. Hello Gravel provides transparent, up-to-date pricing and a delivery quote for your zip code; note our minimum order is 3 tons. For the most accurate price, get a quote through the Hello Gravel site or contact our team.
Fill dirt can be used as non-structural backfill, but driveways and structural footings typically require engineered base material and compaction testing. For driveways you will usually want road base or crusher run over compacted subgrade, and foundations often require engineered fill per building code. Check with a licensed contractor or your local building department in Concord before relying on plain fill dirt for structural work.
Yes. Significant grading or changes to site elevations may require permits from the City of Concord Planning and Building Division, and stormwater/erosion controls can be required for larger jobs. Always check local grading and building rules before ordering large volumes, and contact Hello Gravel early so we can help coordinate timing with your project needs.
Concord has a Mediterranean climate with wet winters and dry summers, and local soils often include clayey and silty layers that affect drainage and compaction. Wet winters can cause poorly drained fill to become saturated and settle, while dry summers can lead to cracking if not compacted properly. Plan for proper compaction, grading to shed water, and drainage measures to avoid erosion and settling.
Fill dirt is primarily fine subsoil used to raise grades and fill voids; it is inexpensive but not designed for structural support or good drainage. Crusher run and road base are crushed rock blends engineered to compact tightly and carry loads, making them better for driveways, parking areas, and structural base layers. Choose fill dirt for bulk elevation work and crusher run or road base when strength and drainage matter.
Standard delivery is available in 2+ business days, and next-day delivery can be arranged for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Actual lead times in Concord depend on supplier availability and season; weekends and busy landscaping seasons can increase wait times. Hello Gravel will confirm delivery date at checkout and you can request a preferred delivery window.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request the service at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. Drivers will assess safety and access upon arrival. For precise spreading, compaction, or final grading we recommend hiring a local landscaper or contractor.
Clear an access path for a tri-axle dump truck, mark the desired drop location, and remove vehicles or obstacles from the delivery zone. Call 811 to mark underground utilities before any excavation or placement, and place protective boards if you are concerned about driveway damage. Tell Hello Gravel any special delivery notes at checkout so the driver is prepared.
Properly placed and compacted fill dirt can be stable for many years, but un-compacted or loosely placed fill will settle over time and may require topping up. Maintenance typically includes regrading low spots, reinstalling erosion control, and monitoring drainage after heavy winter rains. If you plan landscaping on top, add a layer of topsoil or amend the surface for plant health.
Use a mechanical compactor and place fill in thin lifts (typically 6-8 inches) with compaction checks, and consider hiring a geotechnical or civil engineer for larger or structural projects. Improve drainage by grading to daylight, adding gravel drainage layers where needed, and installing drain pipes if water accumulation is a risk. Hello Gravel can help with material recommendations and point you to local contractors when needed.

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.
