Why Newport Beach Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Newport Beach (city population 53,771) sits inside a growing metro area (metro area population 2.7+ million) with steady development and a growth rate of 1.00% annually. The local Mediterranean-like climate — hardiness zone 8b, about 228 sunny days per year, and 34.25 inches annual rainfall — supports year-round outdoor projects but makes grading and drainage especially important. As homeowners renovate yards, install patios, or adjust lot elevations to manage runoff, demand increases for dependable bulk materials. Fill dirt is sought for creating stable building pads, backfilling foundations, and leveling yards because homeowners need material with low organic content, predictable settlement behavior, and good compaction for long-term performance. Buying regionally sourced fill dirt online helps match material to local conditions, simplify logistics, and avoid costly rework.Popular Projects in Newport Beach This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Newport Beach Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Newport Beach.
Delivered fill dirt in Newport Beach typically ranges from about $25 to $60 per cubic yard, depending on source, consistency, and truck access. Additional fees can include delivery distance, small-lot surcharges, permits, or spreading service. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and offers transparent pricing during checkout, so check your zip code for an exact quote.
A standard tri-axle dump truck load usually carries 10 to 12 cubic yards and can cost roughly $250 to $700 delivered in Newport Beach, depending on material type, access, and local supplier rates. Narrow streets, HOA rules, or difficult drop locations can add extra fees. For an accurate price, use Hello Gravel's checkout to get a delivery quote to your address.
For general yard raising or leveling, plan on lifts of 4 to 6 inches per pass with compaction between lifts; build to the desired final grade in multiple compacted layers rather than dumping a deep single lift. Total depth depends on how much elevation change you need—1 inch of raise over 1,000 sq ft equals about 0.31 cubic yards. If you need to support structures or driveways, use engineered or structural fill and consult a contractor.
You can place clean fill dirt over existing soil to raise grade, but for projects that need drainage or structural support, add a compacted base or geotextile fabric as recommended. Newport Beach's coastal soils can be sandy or clayey in pockets, so stabilizing weak or wet soils before adding large fills is important. Hello Gravel supplies material but site prep and fabric installation are typically handled by contractors unless explicitly arranged.
Fill dirt is for raising and leveling ground and is not a good drainage layer because it compacts and holds water; gravel or crushed stone is the right choice for drainage. For French drains, dry wells, or base courses near Newport Beach homes, use clean, angular gravel to promote water movement and avoid fine-grained fill dirt in those applications. If you need both materials, Hello Gravel can deliver them—coordinate with a contractor for proper installation.
For paver patios and pathways, place a compacted base of crushed stone or gravel first for stability and drainage, then a layer of coarse sand on top to bed and level the pavers. Fill dirt is not appropriate under pavers because it can settle and cause unevenness. Hello Gravel can deliver both sand and gravel, but installation of the base and bedding is usually performed by landscapers or contractors.
Filling a hole with fill dirt will raise grade but will not improve drainage; in fact, compacted fill dirt can impede water flow. For drainage, fill with clean gravel or install a designed drain system. Use fill dirt only when your goal is to raise ground or backfill around foundations, and consult local codes if near coastal setbacks or utilities.
Yes. For a stable driveway base in Newport Beach, crushed stone or structural base material is preferred because it provides load-bearing strength and drainage. Fill dirt may be used to raise the grade before installing a crushed base, but it should not be the final driving surface material. If you need both, Hello Gravel can deliver the required quantities of each material.
Start by addressing subgrade issues: remove unstable soil or organic matter, then place and compact fill dirt to achieve desired grades. Next install a compacted structural base of crushed stone where required, then add sand bedding for pavers. Each layer should be compacted as needed; Hello Gravel can supply the materials, but site prep and compaction are usually a contractor service.
Costs vary widely, but expect site prep, fill dirt to raise grade, a crushed stone base, compaction, and paving to start around several thousand dollars for a 20-foot residential driveway in Newport Beach. Higher labor rates, limited access, and permit or HOA requirements in Newport Beach can push costs higher. Hello Gravel can provide material delivery estimates, but get contractor quotes for installation and compaction pricing.
To calculate required fill, determine the average height change you need; 1 inch of raise over 1 square foot equals 0.0231 cubic feet, or about 0.00085 cubic yards. For practical planning, raising 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches needs roughly 8.5 cubic yards of fill dirt. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or request a quote with your dimensions for an accurate amount.
Yes. Newport Beach has narrow residential streets, strict HOA and city permit rules in some neighborhoods, and coastal setback or floodplain considerations that can affect delivery and placement of fill dirt. Some areas restrict truck access, street blocking, or require permits for large grading jobs. Provide your address at checkout so Hello Gravel can confirm hauler access and notify you of any potential delivery remarks or additional charges.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
