Why King City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
King City (city population 15,470) sits inside a growing West California region and is part of a metro area with 2.5+ million residents. With steady expansion at a 1.20% annual growth rate, local demand for grading, foundation prep, and yard regrading is rising as homeowners and small developers update properties. The area’s climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—means soil moves between dry, compacted conditions and wet, workable periods through the year. That variability makes consistent, well-graded aggregates important for long-lasting results. Homeowners choose quality fill materials to avoid settling, keep grades stable, and create reliable drainage so driveways, lawns, patios, and foundations perform well despite seasonal wet spells and strong sun.Popular Projects in King City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - King City Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in King City.
Delivered fill dirt in King City typically ranges from about $8 to $22 per ton (roughly $6 to $16 per cubic yard), depending on moisture, rock content, and haul distance. Exact pricing varies by supplier, truck access, and minimum order size, so get a quote for your zip code to see current rates.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers serving King City; most deliveries are made with tri-axle dump trucks carrying 12 to 18 tons. Our platform has a minimum order of 3 tons, but many local suppliers prefer full truckloads to reduce per-ton cost, so check available options at checkout.
Plan on ordering 10% to 20% extra material for normal grading and compaction; for deep fills over about 2 feet, allow up to 25% extra because consolidation increases with depth. Proper compaction in lifts also reduces settlement, so factor in contractor methods when estimating overage.
Fill dirt can work as non-structural backfill or to raise grade, but it is not a suitable finished surface for driveways or patios. For driveways and areas that carry vehicle loads, use a compacted aggregate base (crushed rock or DG) over the fill; for foundation backfill follow your engineer’s specs and avoid organic-rich or uncontrolled fills.
You should check with the King City Building and Planning Department before importing large volumes; grading permits, engineered fill reports, or stormwater controls may be required for significant fills or slope work. Small landscape deliveries typically do not need permits, but any changes to grade, drainage, or over local thresholds will likely trigger review.
King City’s dry summers and winter rainy season mean timing matters: schedule bulk deliveries and compaction during the dry months to avoid wet, soft conditions that make compaction difficult. If work happens during the wet season, expect longer drying times, extra rework, and potential erosion control measures after storms.
On slopes, use clean, compactable, well-graded fill with some fines mixed in for cohesion, or blend in small amounts of crushed gravel near the surface to improve stability and drainage. Combine this with geotextile fabric, terracing, retaining walls, and erosion controls like hydroseeding or wattles to reduce runoff in King City’s seasonal rains.
For finished patios and driveways, crushed rock or decomposed granite is a better choice because they provide drainage and a stable wearing surface. Use fill dirt only as subgrade to raise elevation or fill voids, then cap it with the proper engineered base material before installing the surface layer.
Hauling fees vary by distance, site access, and load size; Hello Gravel generally requires a 3-ton minimum, and common delivery trucks are tri-axles that carry about 12 to 18 tons. If soil is contaminated or needs special disposal, there may be additional handling or landfill fees, so disclose site conditions when ordering.
Contractors commonly place geotextile fabric over soft subgrades, install perforated drainage pipe for subsurface flow, and compact fill in 6- to 8-inch lifts using plate compactors for small areas or a roller for larger sites. Proper drainage and staged compaction are key to avoiding future settlement and drainage problems in King City’s soils.
Measure the area in square feet and multiply by the desired depth in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards (Area x Depth / 27). Convert cubic yards to tons using a factor given by your supplier if needed, and add 10% to 20% for compaction and grading waste depending on project depth.
Fill dirt is variable and usually consists of subsoil with a mix of sand, silt, clay, and occasional rock; color and texture reflect local geology in the King City area. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, expect natural variation and note any color or rock preferences in your order notes, but avoid expecting an exact match to photos.
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.
