Why Kerman Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Kerman, California, has a city population of 19,100 and sits within a metro area of 2.5+ million. The area grows at a steady rate of 0.70% annually and benefits from 235 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.15 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b. These conditions favor steady residential improvements and measured development rather than rapid expansion. Homeowners and small contractors in Kerman commonly need reliable, cost-effective fill material for grading driveways, raising low spots, building pads, and preparing planting beds. With a temperate, mostly dry climate and occasional rains, choosing the right fill dirt helps reduce settling, improve drainage, and match local soil characteristics — all of which save time and money during site prep.Popular Projects in Kerman This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Kerman Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Kerman.
Yes. Fill dirt is commonly used to raise or level subgrade before putting down a driveway, but in Kerman’s Central Valley soils you should compact it in layers and ensure proper drainage because local clays can hold water. For a durable driveway, cap the compacted fill dirt with 4–6 inches of compacted road base or crusher-run and finish with the gravel surface you prefer.
Fill dirt can be used to build up grade beneath a patio, but it is not a finished surface and should be compacted in lifts and capped with a structural base (crushed stone or road base) before pavers. In Kerman’s climate, a geotextile fabric and proper slope for runoff help prevent settling and frost heave in cooler months.
Using locally sourced fill dirt to bring the driveway to the desired grade and then topping it with compacted road base is usually the most economical approach in Kerman. Ordering more material at once (Hello Gravel minimum 3 tons) and scheduling standard delivery reduces per-ton delivery costs; always compact in layers to avoid future regrading costs.
The common 70/30 rule (70% existing soil, 30% compost or topsoil) is for improving planting beds, not for fill dirt. Kerman fill dirt often contains clay and subsoil that is poor for plants, so avoid using untreated fill dirt in the top 6–12 inches of planting areas and use screened topsoil or amendment instead.
A typical tri-axle dump truck used in Hello Gravel’s network carries about 10–12 cubic yards, which in practice is roughly 12–16 tons of fill dirt depending on moisture and composition. Prices vary with haul distance, moisture content, and local supply, so get a firm quote through our checkout (minimum 3 tons) or contact our team for a delivery estimate to Kerman, CA.
No — fill dirt will compact and firm up over time but it will not harden like concrete or become structural on its own. If you need a hardened surface, use engineered materials or stabilization methods (compacted base, soil-cement, or gravel binders) and consult a contractor for structural work in Kerman’s soil conditions.
Coverage depends on depth: one cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth. Fill dirt bulk density varies, but one cubic yard is typically 1.2–1.4 tons, so a 50 lb bag is only a few percent of a cubic yard and is not practical for most fill jobs — order by tons for driveway or grading work and use our material calculator for precise estimates.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
