Why Rancho Murieta Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rancho Murieta, with a city population of 1.0+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, sits in a steadily growing West California region (growth rate: 0.70% annually) where outdoor projects are common. The local climate—annual rainfall: 34.32 inches, 228/year sunny days, and hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round yard work but also creates needs for durable grading and erosion control. As neighborhoods expand and homeowners tackle patio builds, driveway raises, and low retaining walls, demand for reliable bulk materials rises. Homeowners choose quality aggregates to ensure stable compaction, proper drainage, and long-lasting results, especially where ground movement or runoff could affect foundations and finished landscaping.Popular Projects in Rancho Murieta This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rancho Murieta Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Rancho Murieta.
Delivered fill dirt in Rancho Murieta typically ranges from about $12 to $28 per cubic yard, depending on source, volume, and delivery distance. Per-ton pricing varies with moisture and density but generally runs about $10 to $25 per ton; one cubic yard is roughly 1.2 to 1.5 tons depending on moisture and compaction. Large orders often lower the per-unit cost; get a zip-code quote on Hello Gravel for an exact delivered price.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers that serve the Rancho Murieta area; most suppliers offer dump-truck delivery to residential sites. Availability and exact material mixes vary by supplier, so enter your zip code on our site or contact our team to see local options and delivery windows for your address.
Use the rule: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For 1,000 sq ft at 2 inches you need about 6.2 cubic yards, and at 4 inches about 12.3 cubic yards. Convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by roughly 1.2–1.5 tons per yard, so expect about 7–19 tons depending on moisture and compaction.
For driveways and patios, use clean, compactable fill with low organic content and few large rocks—this helps control settlement and drainage. Fill dirt is fine for raising grade or filling voids, but a structural aggregate layer (crusher run or compacted base) is recommended on top for driveways; local Mediterranean climate means you should plan for occasional heavy rains, so proper grading and a permeable or well-draining base are important.
Permitting and HOA rules vary: small landscaping fills often do not trigger county permits, but significant grading, changes to lot drainage, retaining walls, or large deliveries may require Sacramento County permits and HOA approval in Rancho Murieta. Contact the Rancho Murieta HOA and Sacramento County planning/building department before starting large grading projects to confirm requirements.
Compaction is important to minimize future settling—properly compacted fill prevents uneven lawns and drainage problems. Contractor pricing varies with scope and access; for small residential areas expect a range of roughly $300 to $1,200 depending on crew/equipment and site difficulty, while larger jobs may be quoted per square foot; get local bids and ask contractors about target compaction and testing.
Fill dirt can help reshape slopes but must be compacted, graded for positive drainage, and combined with erosion controls like terraces, swales, mulch, or retaining walls to prevent washouts. In Rancho Murieta's hilly terrain and Mediterranean rains, plan for runoff management and avoid placing loose, uncompacted fill on steep slopes without stabilization.
Use fill dirt to raise grade or fill low spots, but not as a finished surface. For driveways, crusher run or a compacted rock base is preferred because it compacts well and supports traffic; decomposed granite makes a good finished surface for walkways and low-traffic paths where a natural look and permeability are desired. A typical approach is fill/compact for subgrade, then add crusher run or DG as the surface layer.
Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so check for narrow streets, low-hanging wires, overhead trees, mailboxes, and tight driveways that might block access. Some neighborhoods or roads may have weight or bridge restrictions—confirm access at checkout and note delivery instructions; drivers may refuse unsafe drops and spreading is performed only at their discretion.
When properly placed and compacted, fill dirt used as a subgrade can last many years with minimal maintenance, but expect some initial settlement in the first months to a year. As a surface material, fill dirt erodes, weeds, and washes more readily; maintain by regrading, adding a finished aggregate surface, and ensuring drainage to prolong performance in Rancho Murieta's seasonal weather.
Provide a clear delivery address and any access constraints (narrow roads, gates, overhead wires, or preferred drop location) and request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to consider it. Contact Hello Gravel or the supplier ASAP with changes; drivers will assess safety on arrival and spreading is at their discretion, so plan for on-site adjustments.
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.
