Why Dundee Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dundee is a growing community with a population of 5,490 and a steady 2.50% annual growth rate, driving more home projects and small-scale construction. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall—supports year-round landscaping and building, but it also creates specific site conditions: sandy coastal soils, shifting grades, and variable drainage. Homeowners here often need reliable aggregates to raise grades, backfill foundations, and improve drainage before planting or paving. Because even small settlement can affect driveways, patios, and foundations, choosing clean, compactable materials is a common priority for local projects.Popular Projects in Dundee This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dundee Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Dundee.
In Dundee and the West Florida area, bulk fill dirt typically ranges from about $20 to $45 per cubic yard, depending on supplier, delivery distance, and season. Hello Gravel shows local pricing and delivery fees at checkout; we require a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is 2+ business days.
Yes—fill dirt is generally cheaper than topsoil because it contains little organic matter and is not screened for planting. Use fill dirt for raising grades and structural fill, then add a few inches of topsoil if you plan to plant lawns or gardens.
You can put pea gravel directly on compacted fill dirt for small paths or decorative areas, but for driveways or high-traffic areas install a compacted base (crushed stone) and a geotextile fabric to prevent sinking and mixing. In wet West Florida soils, proper compaction and a base layer reduce rutting and washout during heavy rains.
Fill dirt works well as structural backfill because it compacts and supports loads, but it is not a drainage material. For improved drainage behind foundations or in French drains, use clean, washed stone like #57 rather than fill dirt.
A common tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose material. Using the local per-yard ranges, a single dump truck load of fill dirt in Dundee will typically cost roughly $200 to $540, depending on load size, delivery distance, and any extra fees.
Most full-size pickup beds hold roughly 1 to 2 cubic yards of loose fill dirt; heavy-duty beds may hold a bit more. Always check your truck's payload capacity—fill dirt is heavy (roughly 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard loose), so you can exceed the payload even if the material fits.
One cubic yard is a 3' x 3' x 3' cube (27 cubic feet). That equals about 324 square feet at 1 inch depth, 162 square feet at 2 inches, or will raise a 27 square foot area by 12 inches—use these examples to estimate coverage when planning.
At typical West Florida bulk rates of $20 to $45 per cubic yard, 20 cubic yards will cost roughly $400 to $900 before any delivery or site fees. Hello Gravel can provide an exact quote and available delivery windows based on your zip code.
Yes—fill dirt is appropriate for raising grade and bulk leveling, but it must be placed in lifts and compacted to avoid future settling. In Dundee's rainy climate, slope grading to move water away from structures and finishing with topsoil for plantings are important steps.
A 50 lb bag of gravel or aggregate is about 0.5 cubic feet and will cover roughly 3 square feet at a 2-inch depth. For larger leveling or filling jobs in Dundee, bulk fill dirt sold by the cubic yard is far more economical than many bags.
Pea gravel does not compact like fill dirt and will shift over time, so it is a poor choice for structural fill or final grading. Use pea gravel for surface finishes, drainage layers, or decorative areas, and use compactable fill dirt when you need stability.
No—fill dirt is not a drainage material and will not improve drainage; it actually holds more water than clean rock. For drainage solutions, backfill with coarse stone or design a French drain using clean gravel and a perforated pipe.
No—2 inches of fill dirt is not sufficient for a driveway. Driveways require a proper compacted structural base (several inches of crushed stone) and enough thickness to support traffic; fill dirt is used to build up grades but not as a wearing surface.
Fill dirt is natural soil used to raise or level ground and is chosen for compaction, while 2A and 2B are crushed stone/aggregate gradations used as compactable structural bases. If you need a stable base for pavement or concrete in Dundee, choose a graded aggregate rather than fill dirt.
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.
