Why Sonoma Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sonoma has a population of 27,220 and is part of a metro area with 2.5+ million residents. With a growth rate of 1.00% annually, local housing and landscaping projects continue to expand. The climate favors outdoor work, averaging 228 sunny days per year and 35.38 inches of rainfall annually, and the region sits in hardiness zone 8b. That combination of sun, moderate rain, and ongoing development drives demand for reliable bulk materials: homeowners need quality aggregates for grading, raising low spots, filling trenches, and preparing bases for patios, driveways, and retaining walls. Clear information about quantity, delivery, and material properties helps DIYers and contractors plan accurately and avoid costly rework.Popular Projects in Sonoma This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sonoma Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Sonoma.
Typical delivered prices for fill dirt in Sonoma range from about $25 to $50 per ton, depending on material quality, distance from local suppliers, and whether the material is screened or has rock. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and offers transparent quotes in checkout, with many areas eligible for free delivery; use our material calculator or contact our team for a customized estimate.
Fill dirt by itself is not a good finished surface for driveways or heavy truck use. For driveways you need compacted structural fill, a crushed-rock base, proper drainage, and usually an engineered design; we recommend using fill dirt only to build grade and then topping with road base or asphalt for heavy loads.
First calculate cubic yards: 20 x 30 ft x 0.5 ft = 300 cubic feet, which is about 11.1 cubic yards. Fill dirt in Sonoma typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard, so you would need roughly 13 to 17 tons; order an extra 5-10% to allow for settling and compaction.
Fill dirt can be used to regrade low spots and restore slope shape, but Sonoma's clay soils often hold water and can worsen surface runoff if not combined with drainage measures. For effective erosion control use clean, compacted fill, add swales, French drains, retaining features, and consult a soils engineer for steep or sensitive slopes.
You may need permits for large fills, grading, work near creeks or wetlands, or when altering drainage on a property in Sonoma County. Check with Sonoma County Permit and Resource Management Department (PRMD) and the City of Sonoma for local rules, and check with Hello Gravel before ordering so we can help flag potential permitting needs.
Deliveries are made by dump trucks (typically tri-axle) and Hello Gravel requires a minimum 3-ton order; standard delivery takes 2+ business days with next-day available for qualifying orders. Make sure the drop zone has truck access, no low wires, and a turnaround; note that tailgate spreading is available at the driver's discretion and should be requested at checkout.
No. Because Hello Gravel sources fill dirt regionally, color, texture, and the amount of clay, silt, and rock will vary with local geology in Sonoma. If you need a specific material spec, request details in order notes or contact our sales team for guidance and photos from nearby loads.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
Use our material calculator here: https://hellogravel.com/calculator/ to enter the length, width and depth measurements of your project. It will automatically calculate the cubic yards/tons needed. If you are unsure how much to order, contact our team for guidance.

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. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. 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. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. 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!
