Why Klamath Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Klamath is a small city with a city population of 710 in West California and sits within a metro area with a population of 2.7+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually, local homeowners tend to focus on practical property improvements like leveling yards and fixing drainage rather than large-scale development. The region's climate—about 228 sunny days annually, 34.32 inches of rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor work but also creates seasonal runoff and settling concerns. That mix of sun and rain drives steady demand for reliable base materials: homeowners order Fill Dirt to raise low spots, build terraces, set proper grades for driveways, and prepare foundation pads. Choosing quality, clean Fill Dirt helps avoid future settling, standing water, and erosion-related rework.Popular Projects in Klamath This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Klamath Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Klamath.
Generally yes: plain fill dirt is usually cheaper per cubic yard or ton than crushed gravel because it is less processed. Prices in Klamath can vary due to local supply and hauling distance, so check Hello Gravel for an exact quote for your zip code.
Fill dirt is mostly fines and subsoil used to build up grade and support structures, while gravel is coarser and used for drainage and load-bearing surfaces. In Klamath, choose fill dirt when you need to raise or level ground and gravel when you need drainage or a stable surface.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve the Klamath area; enter your zip code to see available fill dirt options. Because Klamath is a small community, availability and color/texture will reflect local geology and may vary by supplier.
You can use gravel as backfill in locations where drainage and load transfer are important, such as around foundation footings or behind retaining walls. For general grade buildup or non-draining fills, fill dirt is usually preferred because it compacts more predictably and is cheaper.
Costs vary by supplier and distance, but a typical tri-axle load of fill dirt delivered in northern California often ranges from an approximate low-to-high estimate due to regional differences. The most accurate price is a Hello Gravel quote for your address, which factors in local sourcing and hauling.
To cover 1,000 sq ft to a 6-inch depth you need about 18.5 cubic yards of fill dirt, which is roughly 22 to 23 tons depending on moisture and soil type. Adjust up or down for deeper or shallower fills and use Hello Gravel's calculator or ask our team for a site-specific estimate.
For simple landscaping or raising low spots you can add fill dirt without extensive prep, but for driveways, foundations, or any load-bearing area you should remove organic topsoil and compact the fill in lifts. Klamath's wetter climate means you should be more careful about settling and compaction to avoid future drainage issues.
No — fill dirt is not recommended for drainage because it contains fine particles that hold water and slow drainage. Use crushed rock or gravel in the bottom of drain holes and trenches, and reserve fill dirt for structural fill or grade building.
Key factors include haul distance, how much processing the material needs, truck size, and local availability. Because Klamath is small, longer hauls from nearby supply yards can raise cost, so ordering larger quantities or checking Hello Gravel for multiple local suppliers can lower per-ton price.
Yes — for most structural backfill (foundations, road bases, retaining walls) compaction is essential. Best practice is to place fill dirt in 4-6 inch lifts and compact each lift with appropriate equipment; hand tamping is usually not sufficient for load-bearing fills.
Fill dirt drains slowly compared with gravel because it contains fine particles that retain moisture. If you need drainage, add a gravel layer or drainage rock and a perforated pipe; use fill dirt only as the backfill or grade material above the drainage layer.
Cheapest options include ordering larger loads to reduce per-ton hauling costs, choosing locally sourced material, and scheduling delivery when trucks are already operating in your area. Use Hello Gravel to compare nearby suppliers and delivery options to find the best price for your project.
A common tri-axle dump truck used by Hello Gravel suppliers carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards, which for fill dirt is roughly 12 to 16 tons depending on moisture and soil density. Smaller or larger trucks are available in some areas, so confirm truck size when you get your quote.
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.
