Frequently Asked Questions - Broward County Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Broward County.
Yes, fill dirt is generally cheaper than gravel per cubic yard because it is a basic soil product without stone. In Broward County you often see lower prices for locally sourced fill dirt because sand and soil are common here, but gravel or crushed stone may be a better long-term surface for driveways. Choose fill dirt for raising grades or leveling, and use a gravel base or paver surface where durability and drainage are needed.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. At typical delivered prices in Broward County you can expect a delivered truckload to fall roughly in the $200 to $700 range, depending on truck size, exact material, and delivery distance; check our checkout for exact quotes. Hello Gravel lists clear per-load and per-yard pricing during order and can show any delivery fees before you confirm.
Delivered fill dirt in Broward County typically ranges from about $20 to $45 per cubic yard, though local suppliers and seasonal demand can shift prices. To estimate how many cubic yards you need, multiply area (sq ft) by depth (in feet) and divide by 27 (cubic feet per cubic yard); for example a 1,000 sq ft area at 3 inches (0.25 ft) needs about 9.3 cubic yards. Use our material calculator or request a quote to get an exact yardage and price for your address.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. Coverage examples: at 1 inch depth one cubic yard covers about 324 sq ft, at 2 inches about 162 sq ft, at 4 inches about 81 sq ft, and at 6 inches about 54 sq ft. As a rule of thumb one cubic yard of fill dirt weighs roughly 1.0 to 1.3 tons (around 1.2 tons typical) depending on moisture and compaction, so convert by weight only if you know local supplier density.
For 1,000 sq ft the yardage depends on depth: 2 inches needs about 6.2 yd3, 3 inches about 9.3 yd3, and 4 inches about 12.3 yd3. Using a delivered rate of $20 to $45/yd3, material and delivery would be about $125 to $555 for 2 to 4 inches; add labor for spreading and grading, which can range depending on complexity. If you want driver tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but remember it is performed at the driver's discretion and may not be guaranteed; getting a contractor for finish grading is common.
Calculate volume by multiplying width (20 ft) by length (in ft) by depth (ft) and dividing by 27 for cubic yards. Example: for a 20 ft by 50 ft driveway (1,000 sq ft) at 4 inches (0.33 ft) you need about 12.3 yd3; at a delivered rate of $20 to $45/yd3 expect material costs of roughly $246 to $554. You may need additional base material, compaction, and geotextile depending on use, so include contractor or rental equipment costs in your budget.
A standard full-size pickup bed safely holds about 0.5 to 1.0 cubic yard without overloading the vehicle, but heavy dirt can exceed axle weight limits quickly. For more than a small amount we recommend ordering delivery by dump truck through Hello Gravel to avoid vehicle damage and to get predictable pricing and placement. Our minimum order is 3 tons, and delivery options are shown during checkout for Broward County addresses.
For most Broward County projects bulk delivery by dump truck is the most cost-effective and convenient option once you need several cubic yards, because it saves time and hauling costs. Small projects under a cubic yard may be cheaper to pick up, but remember pickup adds effort and potential vehicle wear. Use our calculator to compare the delivered per-yard price and truck size versus pickup or vendor pickup to decide.
Labor rates vary by contractor, but $50 to $125 per hour is a common range for general labor and grading in Broward County depending on experience and equipment; $100/hr is within the typical range for skilled crew work. Many jobs are quoted per project rather than by the hour, so get written estimates that include prep, spreading, compaction, and clean-up to compare accurately. For larger jobs contractors may charge a flat fee that can be more cost-effective than hourly rates.
In Broward County you can use fill dirt to raise grade, but proper preparation is important: remove organics, regrade, compact in 6 to 8 inch lifts, and consider geotextile fabric where poor soils or drainage are an issue. For driveways you should install a compacted base and often a geotextile to reduce migration and settling; coastal sandy soils and high water table in Broward can affect performance. Hello Gravel provides delivery and can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but we do not provide full installation; contact our team for contractor referrals or get a local installer to handle compaction and grading.
Yes, adding large amounts of fill can trigger local permitting, especially near wetlands, flood zones, or when changing finished grade by certain amounts; Broward County and local municipalities may have rules on grading, drainage, and elevation. Before ordering bulk fill, check with Broward County Building and Permitting or your city zoning department if your project changes drainage, affects neighbors, or alters flood elevations. If you are unsure, contact our sales team and we can help point you toward common local requirements and contractor partners.
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.

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!
