Frequently Asked Questions - Strawberry Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Strawberry.
Delivered price for fill dirt in Strawberry varies with supplier, distance, and load size. As a ballpark, expect roughly $25 to $60 per ton delivered for coastal California locations, though many orders qualify for free delivery in our network. Request a quote in checkout for an exact price tied to your address and access conditions.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve the Strawberry area; the exact supplier will depend on your zip code. Our platform’s minimum order is 3 tons, and the truck types used are typically tri-axle dump trucks. For larger jobs contractors often order by the truckload to reduce per-ton cost.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches you need about 500 cubic feet, which is roughly 18.5 cubic yards. Depending on moisture and soil type, that equals approximately 20 to 28 tons of fill dirt; a practical estimate is about 23 tons. We recommend ordering 5 to 10% extra to allow for settling and grading.
Plain fill dirt is fine for general site grading and raising yard grade, but it is not recommended as the final base under driveways or structural foundations. For driveways and foundations you should use crushed rock or engineered fill and follow geotechnical recommendations to ensure drainage and load-bearing capacity. For small, non-structural fills around landscaping, screened fill dirt is usually acceptable.
For structural or load-bearing uses you should follow engineered specs: place fill in lifts (commonly 6 to 8 inches) and compact each lift to the required density (often 90 to 95% of standard Proctor). Local soil conditions near Strawberry, including coastal clays and groundwater, can change requirements, so get a geotechnical recommendation for foundations or retaining walls. For simple landscape fills, compacting by plate tamper in thinner lifts is usually sufficient.
Fill dirt will settle over time, especially in coastal and hilly terrain where erosion and heavy rains are common. Expect some settling in the first year and plan for erosion control measures like silt fencing, seed, mulch, or terraces; you may need minor regrading or top-up material after storms. Proper compaction, drainage, and vegetation will dramatically reduce long-term maintenance.
Fill dirt contains fines and holds water, so it is good for bulk raising and backfill but poor for drainage and load-bearing. Crushed rock and engineered fill drain well and compact to support pavements, pavers, and foundations. For driveways, paver bases, and structural backfill in Strawberry’s coastal setting, crushed rock or engineered fill is typically the recommended choice.
Permit needs vary by parcel and scope of work; small landscaping fills often do not require a permit, but larger imports, grading changes, or work in the coastal zone often trigger county or city grading and stormwater requirements. Check with your local building and planning department and your HOA before ordering, and keep documentation of compaction and drainage plans if a permit is required. Hello Gravel can help by noting delivery details, but we do not handle permits.
Dump trucks serving Strawberry are typically tri-axle units and need clear, level access with about 12 feet width and firm ground to avoid getting stuck. Drivers will check access and may refuse unsafe drops; additional fees can apply for tight turns, long haul from street to drop spot, or off-loading in difficult terrain. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but know the driver will assess feasibility on arrival.
Screened fill dirt (finer, fewer rocks) is commonly available in our network and can be used to raise or level before you install a paver base. However, screened fill dirt is not a substitute for a compacted crushed stone base for patios and pavers; installers typically use a compacted aggregate base (crushed rock) under pavers for strength and drainage. Order screened material if you need clean leveling soil, and specify 'compacted/engineered base' in your quote if you need a paver-ready product.
Materials are regionally sourced, so color, texture, and rock content reflect local geology near Strawberry and can vary from photos. Coastal soils may include more clay or organic matter and may arrive wetter or denser after rain. If appearance is important, add notes in checkout or contact our team for photos of available loads before delivery.
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.

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.
