Why Melbourne Beach Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Melbourne Beach has a city population of 10,170 and sits along Florida’s Atlantic coast, where steady regional demand is reshaping local yards and shorelines. The surrounding metro area has a population of 2.5+ million and is growing at 2.50% annually, which translates into more residential projects, landscaping upgrades, and drainage fixes in nearby communities. Local conditions (Hardiness Zone 8b) deliver 228 sunny days per year but also about 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, so homeowners must plan for both strong sun and episodic heavy rain. That mix—coastal soils, exposure to storms, and active growth—means homeowners increasingly seek reliable aggregates and fill materials to grade lots, build up low areas, and prepare stable bases for patios, sheds, and driveways. Fill Dirt is a practical, economical earth product used to raise, level, and stabilize ground before final surfacing. For Melbourne Beach’s sandy, coastal setting, clean, well-graded fill dirt helps reduce erosion, improve compaction under structures, and limit uneven settling after heavy rains and sun cycles. Hello Gravel sources locally appropriate fill dirt, connects you with trusted suppliers and dump-truck delivery, and provides transparent pricing and scheduling so the right material arrives when you need it. Request your preferred delivery date at checkout and note access or placement preferences so drivers can assess tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Melbourne Beach This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Melbourne Beach Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Melbourne Beach.
Delivered prices vary with source, distance, and load size, but expect a rough range of $15 to $40 per cubic yard (about $20 to $50 per ton) for common fill dirt in the Melbourne Beach area. Larger orders, nearby suppliers, or cleaner, engineered fill usually lowers the per-unit price. For an exact delivered price to your address, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote.
Local suppliers include landscape and aggregate yards, dirt haulers, and earthwork contractors serving Brevard County. Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and dump-truck haulers—enter your zip code to see available vendors and get delivery pricing and dates. For specialized jobs (engineered backfill, structural fills), ask for contractors with excavation and compaction experience.
Coastal sandy native soils and a relatively high water table in Melbourne Beach mean added fill is more prone to shifting, poor compaction, and saturation after heavy rain. Fine-grained fill with organic material can trap water and settle more; where drainage or structural loads matter, use clean, compactible fill and provide positive drainage. Plan work for drier months and consider a geotechnical recommendation for sites near the shore or in low-lying parcels.
Small landscaping deliveries usually do not require a permit, but large fills, changes to grade, work in dunes, or projects affecting stormwater may require approval from the Town of Melbourne Beach or Brevard County. Before importing substantial quantities, contact the Town of Melbourne Beach Building Department and Brevard County Environmental Permitting to confirm rules, erosion control, and any coastal or wetland restrictions. Hello Gravel can deliver, but permit compliance is the customer's responsibility.
Common uses include raising low yards, garage or driveway approaches (as subgrade), pool and patio backfill, and leveling for landscaping. Best practice: use fill dirt for bulk grade changes but place a compactible, clean base (crushed stone) under driveways and patios—do not leave fill dirt as the finished surface. For pool backfill and structural work, use select/engineered fill and compact in lifts per an engineer's recommendation.
Compact fill in thin lifts (commonly 6 to 8 inches loose) using a plate compactor or roller, and aim for the compaction level specified by a geotechnical report (often 90%+ Standard Proctor for structural fills). Improve drainage by grading away from structures, adding French drains or perforated pipe where needed, and placing a free-draining stone layer under critical areas when the water table is high. Use geotextile fabric to separate fill from very loose or organic native soils to reduce settlement.
Use volume math for accuracy: 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet, so 1 cubic yard covers 324 square feet at 1 inch depth. Fill dirt weight varies; a typical range is about 1.0 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard. For example, if your fill is 1.2 tons per cubic yard, one ton is about 0.83 cubic yards and will cover roughly 269 square feet at 1 inch depth; always measure depth and confirm local material density when ordering.
Hello Gravel deliveries typically use tri-axle dump trucks and require a minimum order (3 tons) for many areas; allow 2+ business days standard lead time or request next-day delivery if available. Make sure the drop site has truck access, note narrow streets, overhead wires, parking restrictions, and possible curb or yard damage; request tailgate spreading at checkout but understand drivers perform spreading at their discretion. If street blocking or large offloads are needed, check local rules and get any necessary permits.
Avoid fill that contains organic matter, wood debris, or large quantities of silt and clay, as those materials hold water and cause long-term settling. Also avoid using dune sand or materials taken from protected coastal zones without permits. For structural or drainage-sensitive work near the coast, choose clean, compactible fill or engineered borrow material and get a site-specific recommendation from a geotechnical or site contractor.
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.
