Why Aventura Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Aventura has a city population of 37,340 and sits inside a rapidly growing West Florida metro with a metro area population of 2.5+ million and a 2.50% annual growth rate. With a hardiness zone of 8b, 228 sunny days per year, and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, local homeowners face a mix of sun-driven landscaping needs and periodic heavy rain. That combination drives demand for reliable site work: raising low spots, prepping bases for patios and driveways, and stabilizing grades before planting. Homeowners choose quality fill dirt to get consistent compaction, reduce future settling, and support proper drainage so lawns and hardscapes perform through seasonal storms and long sunny periods.Popular Projects in Aventura This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Aventura Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Aventura.
In Aventura and nearby Miami-Dade areas, fill dirt commonly ranges from about $8 to $30 per cubic yard depending on quality, moisture, and delivery distance. Urban delivery and limited site access in Aventura can push prices toward the higher end, and Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons so total cost will reflect that minimum plus any delivery fee.
Yes — fill dirt is generally cheaper than topsoil because it contains less organic matter and is used for bulk fill rather than planting. If you need to grow grass or plants on top, plan to add a layer of topsoil over the fill dirt; otherwise using only fill dirt for surface areas may not support plant growth.
Fill dirt is subsoil material used to raise grade or fill holes; in Florida and Aventura it often contains sand and subsoil typical of the region and may include small shell fragments or limestone fines. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, the texture and color can vary by supplier and may be sandier than inland fill.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, so coverage depends on the depth you need. For example, 1 cubic yard will cover about 108 sq ft at 3 inches deep or about 54 sq ft at 6 inches deep.
Costs vary by truck size and distance, but a standard tri-axle dump truck carries roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards; multiply the per-yard price by the truck capacity and add delivery. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing at checkout and will include delivery and any access-related fees before you confirm your order.
A full-size pickup bed can sometimes hold close to 1 cubic yard of loose material, but weight limits matter — 1 cubic yard of fill dirt can weigh roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on moisture and compaction. For safety and payload limits, most homeowners find a dump truck delivery from Hello Gravel is easier and safer than trying to haul heavy loads in a personal vehicle.
Using a rough material range of $8 to $30 per cubic yard, 20 cubic yards of fill dirt would typically cost about $160 to $600 for the material alone, plus delivery and any site-access fees. Large orders usually get better per-yard pricing, but urban delivery constraints in Aventura can add to total cost.
Yes — fill dirt is appropriate for raising low spots and establishing grade, but for final surface that will support lawns or beds, cap the fill with several inches of topsoil. Also account for compaction in 4–6-inch lifts and Aventura's high water table; if you need to change grades significantly, check local codes or consult an engineer for drainage and permit requirements.
For stable results, place fill dirt in layers (lifts) no thicker than about 4 to 6 inches and compact each layer before adding more. This practical approach reduces settling; drivers may be able to tailgate spread at delivery, but compaction with mechanical equipment is recommended for structural fills and is done at the customer's discretion or by a contractor.
A common 40 lb bag of soil is about 0.5 cubic feet, so one cubic yard (27 cubic feet) is roughly 54 bags. Bagged fill dirt is rarely practical for bulk grading — ordering truck delivery through Hello Gravel is almost always more cost-effective and far less labor intensive for yard-scale projects.
Yes — bulk fill dirt delivered by the truck is almost always cheaper per cubic yard than buying the same volume in bags, once you account for time and labor. Hello Gravel's platform connects you to local suppliers and trucks so you can see per-yard pricing and delivery options upfront.
Small amounts for routine yard leveling usually do not require permits, but large fills, changes to drainage, or altering elevation near wetlands or flood-prone areas may trigger local or county regulations. If your project changes grade significantly or affects runoff, check Miami-Dade County rules or consult a professional before ordering large quantities.
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.
