Why Laguna Woods Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Laguna Woods has a city population of 14,260 and sits within a growing regional economy that supports steady home improvement and rebuilding activity. With a growth rate of 0.80% annually and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, demand for reliable building materials and landscaping aggregates is consistent. The local climate—228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in a hardiness zone of 8b—favors outdoor projects year-round but also creates specific soil-management needs. Homeowners here often need materials that help with grading, erosion control, patio and driveway bases, and utility trench backfill. That is why quality fill dirt, correctly specified and compacted, is a common requirement: it reduces settling, supports hardscape, and prepares planting beds in a climate that combines ample sun with moderate seasonal rain.Popular Projects in Laguna Woods This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laguna Woods Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Laguna Woods.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Laguna Woods typically vary by supplier and seasonal demand; expect roughly $20 to $55 per cubic yard as a general range. A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards of fill dirt, so a delivered truckload commonly runs in the $250 to $900 range depending on quantity, haul distance, and access. For an exact price for your address, use our material calculator or request a local quote.
For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide area with a 4-inch compacted base you need about 2.5 cubic yards of fill dirt (20 x 10 x 0.333 ft = 66.7 cu ft = 2.47 cu yd). At typical local rates, that fill dirt would cost roughly $50 to $140 delivered; you should also budget for road base and finish material (crushed rock or gravel) plus compaction. If the driveway needs more raising, import, or engineered fill, quantities and costs will increase—contact our team for a tailored estimate.
Volume and cost depend on depth: at 2" depth you need about 6.2 cubic yards; at 3" about 9.3 cubic yards; and at 6" about 18.5 cubic yards. Using the local price range of $20 to $55 per cubic yard, expect a delivered cost of roughly $125 to $340 for 2", $185 to $510 for 3", and $370 to $1,020 for 6". These estimates cover basic bulk delivery only and do not include spreading, compaction, or permits if required.
You can put gravel over existing dirt if the surface is relatively level, well-draining, and compacted; however, low spots or soft soil usually require fill dirt to raise and level before final surfacing. For driveways and high-traffic areas we recommend a compacted fill layer followed by a road-base course and optional geotextile for separation and stabilization. If drainage is a concern, address grading and subgrade preparation first—our team can advise on what to order for your lot conditions.
Hello Gravel arranges delivery to Laguna Woods through local haulers; our minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is typically by dump truck. Drivers may be able to provide tailgate spreading at their discretion—request it at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. Standard delivery takes 2+ business days, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and delivery fees depend on your zip code and access conditions.
Fill dirt is almost always the cheaper option for bulk raising or leveling because it is less processed than gravel. Use fill dirt to build up grade and then compact it; for a stable base and finished surface you should add a road-base material (crushed rock) and then a decorative gravel or paver surface as needed. For planting beds, choose topsoil rather than fill dirt to support plant growth.
Yes, Hello Gravel can supply drainage rock (clean, washed rock) suitable for French drains, dry wells, or drainage pits, and we can recommend typical sizes such as 3/4" drain rock. For drainage features, avoid using fill dirt inside the pit because it will reduce permeability; pair clean rock with geotextile fabric and proper outlet planning. Contact our team with pit dimensions and soil conditions and we can suggest materials and approximate quantities.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, and a 50-lb bag of soil or gravel is about 0.5 cubic feet, so you need roughly 54 50-lb bags to equal one cubic yard. For a small 5 ft x 5 ft patio at 2" depth you need about 0.15 cubic yards (roughly 8 to 9 bags). Hello Gravel primarily delivers bulk by truck, but in some areas suppliers can provide bagged material—contact us to check availability and pricing for bagged delivery to your Laguna Woods address.
Avoid placing loose, uncompacted fill dirt next to foundations, on steep slopes, or where surface drainage could send water toward the house—these situations can cause settling and drainage problems. For structural or graded areas use engineered fill compacted in lifts; for planting beds use a good quality topsoil or planting mix and add erosion control on slopes. If erosion or runoff is a concern in Laguna Woods, consider retaining measures, geotextile, or consulting a local civil or landscape pro.
Laguna Woods has active HOA and community management (Laguna Woods Village) rules that can restrict truck access, parking, and material placement; some streets are gated or narrow which can affect truck size and delivery timing. Standard small residential deliveries usually do not require city permits, but street closures, sidewalk parking, or oversized loads may require permits from the city or Orange County. Always check with your HOA and provide gate codes or access instructions when ordering, and contact our team if you expect special access needs.
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.
