Why Kenwood Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Kenwood (city population 1,280) sits inside a growing metro of 2.4+ million residents and is experiencing steady development with a 2.60% annual growth rate. The local climate—USDA Hardiness Zone 8b with 228 sunny days/year and 34.25 inches of rain annually—supports year-round outdoor projects and steady demand for site work, landscaping, and home additions. As new builds, retaining walls, and yard regrading increase, homeowners and contractors need reliable materials that perform under sun and seasonal rains. Quality fill materials reduce settling, speed up grading, and create a stable base for patios, sheds, driveways, and lawn restoration. Homeowners in Kenwood choose trusted aggregates to avoid extra site visits, unexpected compaction problems, and drainage issues that can arise when using inconsistent or imported soils.Popular Projects in Kenwood This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Kenwood Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Kenwood.
Pricing varies by supplier, distance, and quantity, but delivered fill dirt in the Kenwood/Sonoma County area commonly ranges from about $25 to $65 per ton. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and offers local quotes based on your zip code, access, and any special delivery needs—request a quote for an accurate price.
To raise 100 square feet by 4 inches you need about 1.6 tons of fill dirt (100 sq ft x 0.333 ft = 33.3 cubic feet = 1.23 cubic yards, and fill dirt is roughly 1.3 tons per cubic yard). Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, you would order 3 tons and save the extra for future touch-ups or spread elsewhere on site.
Fill dirt is fine as a buried base to raise grade, but it is not a durable wearing surface. For driveways in Kenwood’s hilly terrain you should use crushed rock, road base, or decomposed granite as the top layer and compacted fill dirt or engineered base beneath it for grade and support. Proper compaction and drainage are essential given seasonal winter rains in Sonoma County.
Fill dirt alone is not an erosion-control solution—its composition can vary and it may erode on steep slopes during winter rains. For slopes and hilly sites in Kenwood, combine compacted fill with terraces, geotextile, surface rock, and vegetation to manage runoff and prevent washouts. Also design positive drainage away from structures to reduce saturation and instability.
Fill dirt can be used as non-structural backfill but septic and foundation work often requires specific material and compaction standards. Sonoma County and local building departments commonly require engineered fill, compaction testing, or approved materials for foundations and septic trenches—check local code and consult a geotechnical engineer before using generic fill dirt. Hello Gravel can help source suitable materials, but final acceptance is up to your inspector or engineer.
Choose a clean, well-graded, compactable fill with low organic content and good internal drainage for terraces and slope reconstruction. Combine that fill with retaining structures, erosion-control fabric, and surface rock or planted cover to lock the soil in place on vineyard terraces. For vineyard-specific projects, consider consulting a soils engineer familiar with local geology and vineyard practices in Sonoma County.
If used as a buried base and properly compacted, fill dirt can remain stable for many years; however, the wearing surface above it (gravel, decomposed granite, or pavement) determines maintenance frequency. Gravel or DG surfaces in Kenwood typically need topping or regrading every 2 to 10 years depending on traffic, drainage, and hillside runoff. Regular maintenance of drainage and vegetation greatly extends lifespan.
Local suppliers and contracted haulers in the Hello Gravel network routinely deliver fill dirt to properties in Kenwood. Tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver’s discretion and cannot be guaranteed; compaction is generally a separate service provided by earthwork contractors rather than standard dump-truck delivery. Contact Hello Gravel when ordering and we can note spreading requests and help coordinate compaction contractors if needed.
Fill dirt is a general-purpose soil used to raise grade or fill low spots and may include fines and some organic material; engineered fill is specified, tested, and placed with controlled compaction to meet structural requirements. For landscaping and minor grade adjustments in Kenwood, fill dirt is often fine, but for foundations, retaining walls, or major regrades you should use engineered fill per a geotechnical report. Ask a soils engineer for project-specific recommendations.
Yes—Sonoma County and local jurisdictions can have rules about importing fill, especially near creeks, wetlands, or landslide-prone areas; they also require that imported soil be clean and free of contaminants or invasive plant material. For larger deliveries or construction projects, you may need permits, erosion-control plans, or source documentation; check with Sonoma County Permit and Resource Management Department and consult Hello Gravel for source information before ordering.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
