Why Valley Village Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Valley Village has a city population of 24,442 and sits inside a larger metro area of 2.5+ million, which together are driving steady, localized construction and landscaping demand as the region grows at a rate of 0.70% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners in Valley Village face seasonal cycles of wet winters and warm, dry summers that influence grading, drainage, and planting decisions. As new builds, additions, and yard remodels continue, homeowners seek reliable aggregates to avoid uneven settling, erosion, and poor drainage — making proper fill dirt selection and placement a common and important need for local projects.Popular Projects in Valley Village This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Valley Village Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Valley Village.
Delivered fill dirt in Valley Village typically runs in the range of $15 to $35 per ton, depending on source, trucking distance, and whether the material is screened or contains rock. Prices fluctuate with local demand and supplier inventory, so use Hello Gravel’s quote tool or contact our team for a current delivered price to your zip code.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, and many deliveries in the LA area have no extra fee for standard 2+ business day delivery. Expect surcharges for very small loads, tight/street-restricted access in Valley Village, or next-day service; Hello Gravel will show any delivery fees at checkout before you commit.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches you need about 18.5 cubic yards (1,000 x 0.5 ft = 500 cu ft; 500 / 27 = 18.5 cu yd). Fill dirt in the Valley Village area typically weighs about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard loose, so plan on roughly 20 to 25 tons, allowing a small extra amount for spreading and settlement.
Fill dirt can be used as bulk fill but is not ideal as a finished driveway surface; for driveways use a compacted crushed stone or crusher run base topped with a wearing surface. For foundation backfill or structural fills in Valley Village’s clay/loam soils, engineered fill and compaction testing are usually required — consult your engineer and local building department because specifications vary by project.
Yes, larger regrades and many retaining walls in Valley Village fall under City of Los Angeles regulations and often require permits and plan review from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS). Small, minor grading on private property may not need a permit, but check with LADBS or a local civil engineer before starting to avoid fines or rework.
Fill dirt alone does not provide good drainage on slopes, especially if it contains fines or native clay; without proper layering it can promote runoff and erosion during winter rains. For sloped sites in Valley Village, use drainage layers, crushed rock subdrains, geotextile fabric, terraces, and erosion controls (straw, mulch, native planting) to manage water and reduce erosion risk.
Fill dirt is the least expensive option but not suitable as a structural driveway surface and will rut or displace over time. Crusher run (crushed stone with fines) is a common, mid-cost base that compacts well and provides a durable driveway foundation. Engineered fill is the most expensive but is designed, tested, and compacted to support foundations or structurally critical work and offers the best long-term performance for load-bearing applications.
Some local landscape yards and independent haulers around the San Fernando Valley do deliver small loads, but availability depends on current inventory and truck access in Valley Village. Hello Gravel can check local suppliers for you when you enter your zip code; expect possible access surcharges or the need for smaller dump trucks on narrow streets.
For a typical patio base you may rent a plate compactor for about $60 to $120 per day or hire a contractor who charges $40 to $120 per hour per worker depending on experience. Small rollers or jumping jacks cost more to rent; a contractor-installed and compacted base for a modest patio often runs from a few hundred to around $1,200, depending on site prep, access, and slope.
Yes. Prices and delivery availability in Valley Village can tighten during heavy construction seasons, spring/summer landscaping peaks, and around holidays. Winter storm events can cause short-term delivery delays or site access issues, so plan ahead and allow extra lead time during the rainy season or peak demand periods.
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.
