Why Lake Buena Vista Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lake Buena Vista has a city population of 10 and sits inside a fast-growing regional market with a metro area population of 2.5+ million and a growth rate of 2.50% annually. The local climate (hardiness zone 8b) averages 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, conditions that support year-round projects but also require careful attention to grading and drainage. As homes and yards are updated to match regional growth, homeowners increasingly need reliable aggregates to reshape sites, build up low spots, install hardscapes, or prepare for additions. Quality fill dirt matters because it provides stable volume, compacts predictably, and reduces future settling—exactly the traits homeowners look for when tackling grading, retaining walls, and landscape leveling in a growing, sun-forward market.Popular Projects in Lake Buena Vista This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lake Buena Vista Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Lake Buena Vista.
Delivered fill dirt in Lake Buena Vista typically ranges from about $20 to $60 per cubic yard, depending on supplier, truck distance, and whether material is screened or contains more clay. Local hauling, minimum order size, and seasonal demand can push prices higher, so get a delivered quote for the most accurate price.
A 10-cubic-yard delivery in the Lake Buena Vista area commonly runs between $300 and $900, while a 20-yard delivery is often $500 to $1,600, with wide variability based on distance, site access, and material type. Larger loads usually reduce the per-yard price, so compare quotes through Hello Gravel to see exact savings for your address.
Most local tri-axle dump trucks carry about 10 to 14 cubic yards of loose fill dirt; a single-truck delivery typically costs around $300 to $900 in the Lake Buena Vista area. Exact cost depends on haul distance, site accessibility, and any special handling requests; Hello Gravel requires a minimum order (3 tons) and can match you with local haulers for firm pricing.
Per cubic yard, plain fill dirt is generally cheaper than screened topsoil because it is not refined for planting. For backyard leveling, use fill dirt to build or raise grade, then cap with several inches of quality topsoil where you plan to plant grass or gardens to ensure proper growth.
Yes—fill dirt is commonly used to raise or level yards in Lake Buena Vista where native soils are sandy. Calculate cubic yards needed with: (area in sq ft) x (depth in feet) / 27; for example, a 1,000 sq ft area filled to 4 inches requires about 12.3 cubic yards. Add 5–15% extra for compaction and settling and consider calling Hello Gravel for a precise estimate.
One cubic yard of fill dirt covers approximately 162 sq ft at 2" depth, 81 sq ft at 4" depth, and 54 sq ft at 6" depth. These figures assume loose placement before compaction; plan for some loss to compaction when estimating final coverage.
Some full-size pickup beds can hold close to 1 cubic yard loose, but payload limits often mean you should not exceed the truck's weight capacity—fill dirt can be heavy when wet. For convenience and safety many Lake Buena Vista homeowners order a small dump delivery or use Hello Gravel to arrange the correct truck size rather than relying on a pickup.
Buying in bulk and having it delivered is usually the lowest cost per cubic yard; combining orders with neighbors or choosing off-peak delivery can lower hauling fees. Contractor pickup or DIY may save money if you have a vehicle with sufficient payload, but for most homeowners bulk delivery through Hello Gravel provides the best balance of price and convenience.
Fill dirt is fine-grained soil used to raise grade and backfill; it compacts and holds shape but does not provide structural drainage. Gravel is crushed rock used for structural bases and drainage. Use fill dirt to build or level yard grades, and use gravel or crushed stone as the base under driveways and paths for stability and drainage.
Many homeowners can spread small amounts of fill dirt with rakes and wheelbarrows, but larger jobs are easier with rented equipment like a skid steer or mini-excavator. Some local haulers may offer tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion; however, this is not guaranteed. If you want spreading or machine work, ask for it when ordering or hire a local contractor; Hello Gravel can add notes to your order and connect you with suppliers who offer extra services.
Lake Buena Vista sits on naturally sandy soils with relatively high permeability and sometimes shallow water tables, so expect faster drainage and some settling after placement. Compact fill dirt in layers and account for grade and runoff to avoid creating low spots or directing water toward structures; check local codes for any restrictions on raising grades near wetlands or stormwater systems.
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.
