Why Pixley Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Pixley, a city of 4,850 people within a metro area of 2.5+ million, sits in hardiness zone 8b and enjoys 228 sunny days annually with about 34.25 inches of rain each year. That steady, sunny climate and a growth rate of 0.70% annually support ongoing residential projects and modest construction activity—yard regrades, driveways, additions, and utility work are common. Homeowners and local contractors need dependable bulk materials to manage drainage, create stable subgrades, and raise low spots without importing expensive topsoil. Quality aggregates reduce future settling, make grading easier, and simplify site prep for landscaping or building projects in Pixleys varied soils and weather conditions. In Pixleys environment, Fill Dirt functions as a workhorse material for bulk volume needs: its used for backfill, grading, building berms, and creating a stable base where organic topsoil would compress or decompose. Given the combination of strong sun and moderate rainfall, locally sourced and properly graded fill dirt helps control erosion and supports consistent runoff patterns. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right fill dirt by connecting you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery, a material calculator to estimate quantities, and delivery options including standard 2+ business day service and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST.Popular Projects in Pixley This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Pixley Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Pixley.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Pixley typically vary by supplier, haul distance, and moisture. Expect a rough range of about $12 to $30 per ton, or about $15 to $40 per cubic yard (loose). Exact price depends on local availability and whether delivery, spreading, or extra handling is needed, so get a quote through Hello Gravel for a firm number.
Hello Gravel connects you with local Tulare County suppliers and contracted haulers who source regional fill dirt. Standard delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee; trucks are typically tri-axle dump trucks and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion.
Fill dirt is suitable for raising grade and general landscaping in Pixley, but it is not an ideal wearing surface for driveways or a substitute for engineered base beneath pavement. For driveways and heavy loads use a compacted base of crushed rock or class II base on top of properly compacted fill; for structural pads and footings, engineered fill or an evaluation by a soils engineer is recommended because local clays can shift.
Use the formula cubic yards = (square feet x depth in feet) / 27, then multiply cubic yards by 1.2 to 1.4 to estimate tons (density varies by moisture and compaction). Example: a 20'x20' (400 sq ft) garage pad raised 6" (0.5 ft) needs about 7.4 cubic yards, roughly 9.5 to 11 tons; raised 12" needs about 14.8 cubic yards, roughly 18 to 21 tons. Always round up and add about 10% for settlement and compaction when ordering.
Yes—compaction is important for most fills in Pixley, especially because local clay and silty soils can settle or shift. Small landscape fills can often be compacted with a heavy plate compactor in 4" to 6" lifts, while larger pads or driveway bases typically require a vibratory roller and compaction testing; hire a contractor or soils engineer for any structural work.
Pixley’s hot, dry climate and clay/silty soils can cause runoff concentration, ponding, and dust. Grade always away from structures, install swales or French drains where needed, place a free-draining base under critical areas, use erosion control (straw, hydromulch, or vegetation) on exposed slopes, and consider geotextile fabric on problem subsoils.
Use fill dirt mainly to raise elevations, fill low spots, and for non-structural grading. Use crushed rock or class II base for driveways and surfaces that need load-bearing and drainage. Use engineered fill (specified material, compaction, and testing) for foundations, retaining walls, and any load-bearing structural work in Pixley’s clay soils.
Yes—Tulare County may require building or grading permits for certain fills, especially those that change drainage patterns or involve structural work. Permit requirements and thresholds vary by project, so contact Tulare County Planning & Building or your local building official to confirm rules and avoid delays before ordering material.
Loose fill dirt surfaces will settle, create dust in dry months, and support weed growth unless stabilized. Expect periodic regrading, dust control (water or dust suppressants), and adding a gravel surface or paving for long-term durability; for driveways, a top layer of crushed rock greatly reduces maintenance.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Typical tri-axle dump truck loads in the area range from about 10 to 14 tons per truck; smaller end-dumps or yard sales may be measured by the cubic yard. Check product listing and request a delivery quote during checkout, and remember to account for compaction and waste by ordering about 10% extra.
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.
