Why Laguna Hills Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Located in Laguna Hills (city population: 27,613) and part of a metro area with a population of 2.5+ million, the community combines steady residential growth (0.70% annually) with a sun-forward, temperate climate. With about 228/year sunny days, moderate rainfall (annual rainfall: 35.77 inches), and hardiness zone 8b, homeowners and local contractors are actively investing in yard upgrades, grading work, and new construction that requires reliable fill and compaction. That steady development drives demand for clean, low-organic fill dirt used to raise grades, backfill foundations, correct drainage, and prepare footing pads. Homeowners seek quality aggregates that compact predictably, resist settling under seasonal rains, and arrive on schedule so projects stay on track—especially for landscaping terraces, driveway approaches, and foundation backfill where inconsistent material can mean costly rework.Popular Projects in Laguna Hills This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laguna Hills Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Laguna Hills.
Typical delivered prices for Fill Dirt near Laguna Hills vary by supplier, truck size, and haul distance. Expect a rough range of about $12 to $35 per cubic yard (or about $10 to $25 per ton) delivered, with smaller orders and long hauls toward the high end; check your zip code on Hello Gravel for exact quotes and available lead times.
Local suppliers usually price Fill Dirt by the cubic yard or ton; many in Southern California quote between $12 and $35 per cubic yard or $10 to $25 per ton. Prices depend on moisture content, screening, truck access, and whether the material is virgin fill or recycled soil.
Fill Dirt can be used for basic grading and to fill low spots, but for slope stabilization in Laguna Hills' steeper terrain you should use properly compacted engineered fill and follow a geotechnical plan. For any slope work affecting stability, drainage, or structures, consult a licensed civil engineer and use compaction testing rather than assuming uncompacted Fill Dirt is sufficient.
Laguna Hills' warm, dry summers and wet winters mean Fill Dirt should be well compacted and paired with proper drainage. Fine-grained Fill Dirt can compact well but may hold water if it contains clay; combining compacted Fill Dirt with a drainage layer or surface gravel helps prevent saturation and seasonal movement.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches you need about 18.5 cubic yards (1,000 sq ft x 0.5 ft ÷ 27). Using a practical density range for compacted Fill Dirt of about 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard, plan for roughly 22 to 28 tons and add 5% to 10% for compaction and settling.
For a driveway base, engineered fill or structural base material (compacted aggregate) is usually preferable to plain Fill Dirt because it provides better load distribution and drainage. Fill Dirt can be used to raise grades underneath a properly designed base, but the wearing surface and base layers should be crushed rock or engineered aggregate compacted to spec.
Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and haulers that serve Laguna Hills from Orange County sources. Standard delivery times are typically 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply); lead times vary by supplier availability and truck scheduling—check your zip code on Hello Gravel for exact suppliers and schedules.
Fill Dirt used as subgrade rarely needs routine maintenance, but surface soils will settle and may need top-ups after heavy rains or settling—expect minor replenishment every few years for non-structural landscaping. For visible beds or pathways, consider capping with topsoil, mulch, or decorative aggregate to reduce erosion and maintenance.
Fill Dirt is a fine, inexpensive material meant for filling and raising grade; it is not suitable as a finished surface. Crushed rock and decomposed granite (DG) provide better drainage, stability, and a finished appearance for patios and walkways, so use Fill Dirt as a subgrade under those materials rather than as the surface layer.
Permitting depends on the scope of work: small fills for grading or landscaping often do not require a permit, but significant grading, retaining walls, or changes that affect drainage or lot lines may require city or county permits and inspections. Always check with the City of Laguna Hills Planning or Public Works departments before moving large volumes; a geotechnical report may be required for construction projects.
Hello Gravel drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request spreading at checkout and note that the driver will assess safety and feasibility upon arrival. There are no guarantees of spreading service, and complex spreading requests may require a separate contractor.
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.
