Why Los Angeles Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Los Angeles is a sprawling, fast-moving city (city population: 1.8+ million) at the center of a larger Los Angeles-Long Beach metro area (metro area population: 2.5+ million) that is growing at 1.00% annually. With a Mediterranean-like climate in hardiness zone 8b, roughly 225 sunny days per year, and about 34.50 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners and builders balance strong sun with periodic wet seasons. That combination, plus steady population and construction demand, drives frequent grading, landscaping, and foundation projects where reliable earthwork materials are essential. Homeowners choose quality aggregates to avoid settling, improve drainage, and create stable bases for patios, driveways, raised beds, and retaining walls. Fill dirt is a basic, low-cost material meant for bulk volume work: raising grade, filling trenches, backfilling foundations, and creating structural fills under slabs or landscaping features. In Los Angeles, where sun and seasonal rain both affect soil performance, clean, compactable fill dirt that is low in organic material helps minimize future settling and erosion. Hello Gravel connects local suppliers and professional haulers so you can order regionally sourced fill dirt online, choose a delivery date, meet the minimum 3-ton order, and receive truck delivery in a standard 2+ business day window or faster with an optional next-day service when available. We handle coordination with local crews and provide guidance so your fill dirt arrives when and where you need it.Popular Projects in Los Angeles This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Los Angeles Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Los Angeles.
Fill dirt is generally cheaper than processed gravel because it is unprocessed subsoil without decorative stone. In Los Angeles the exact difference depends on local supply, hauling distance, and any processing; check prices for your zip code on Hello Gravel for an accurate local comparison.
A typical tri-axle dump truck used in LA carries roughly 10-14 cubic yards of fill dirt (about 12 yards is common), which translates to roughly 12-15 tons depending on moisture. Final price varies by supplier and delivery; use Hello Gravel to get a quote for your address and note our 3-ton minimum.
You can install gravel over fill dirt, but it works best when the fill dirt is properly graded and compacted first. In Los Angeles, where soils range from sandy coastal deposits to clay in inland valleys, compacting and adding a crushed-rock base or geotextile will improve drainage and prevent shifting.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery.

We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
