Fill Dirt in Redington Beach, FL

A standard tri-axle dump truck load in the Redington Beach area usually carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of fill dirt. Expect to pay roughly $100 to $360 per load, depending on whether the material is basic fill, select (clean) fill, distance from the supplier, and delivery fees. Exact pricing varies by supplier and seasonal demand, so request a quote for your zip code.

Yes—plain fill dirt is generally cheaper per cubic yard than crushed stone or compactable base gravel. However, fill dirt does not provide the same drainage, load-bearing, or long-term stability as compactable base materials, so many driveways still require gravel or stone on top of properly compacted fill.

In the West Florida/Redington Beach market, a common range for loose fill dirt is about $10 to $30 per cubic yard delivered, depending on material quality (topsoil vs select fill), haul distance, and local availability. Ask suppliers whether the price includes delivery and any spreading or disposal fees.

You can use fill dirt to raise or level a backyard, but in coastal Redington Beach soils you should plan on compaction to avoid settlement and uneven areas. For small, shallow jobs homeowners can rent a plate compactor; for larger fills, professional compaction and staged lift fills (4-6 inches per lift) are recommended to get long-term stability.

A standard full-size pickup truck bed holds roughly 0.5 to 1 cubic yard safely, depending on the load and truck. For anything beyond a small patch or garden bed, order a dump truck—Hello Gravel’s minimum order and dump truck capacities make larger jobs easier and safer.

Use cubic yards = area (sq ft) * depth (in) / 324. For 1,000 sq ft: 1 inch = about 3.1 cy, 2 inches = 6.2 cy, 4 inches = 12.3 cy, and 6 inches = 18.5 cy. At $10–$30/cy delivered, costs would run approximately $31–$370 for 1 inch and $185–$555 for 6 inches—final price depends on material type and delivery.

You usually need more than just dumping gravel over loose dirt. For a stable driveway or high-traffic area in Redington Beach’s sandy/coastal soils, remove organics, install a proper compacted base (often select fill or crushed stone), compact in lifts, and then install a surface layer of gravel or stone for drainage and load support.

Sand and fill dirt prices in West Florida can overlap but sand often costs a few dollars more per cubic yard when it is washed or select material. Use sand for drainage, bedding pavers, or beach/shore remediation, and choose fill dirt for bulk grade-raising or backfill where compaction and load-bearing material are not required on the surface.

One cubic yard is roughly a 3'x3'x3' pile and will cover about 108 sq ft at a 3-inch depth (or about 27 sq ft at 12 inches). For backyard leveling or flowerbeds, one cubic yard is a modest amount; for driveway or significant grade changes you will quickly need multiple yards.

Yes—compaction is important in coastal Florida to reduce future settling, especially with high water table and sandy soils in Redington Beach. For driveways and structural fills, compact in thin lifts (typically 4–6 inches) and consider using select fill or engineered fill for better stability.

Cost depends on width and depth. For a typical single-lane 10–12 foot wide driveway at a 6-inch compacted base, you’d need roughly 20–25 cubic yards of fill—material cost roughly $200–$750 at $10–$30/yd3, plus the cost to compact, add base stone and a gravel surface, which can add several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on contractor rates.

Minor yard leveling usually does not require a permit, but larger grade changes, work near wetlands, or projects affecting flood zones or drainage may require local permits or environmental review in Pinellas County and Redington Beach. Check with the Redington Beach town office and county building department before large deliveries or major grade changes.

Ask whether the material is 'clean' or contains organics, the estimated cubic yards per truck, whether delivery and dumping are included, and if the supplier can provide a material description or photo. Also ask about next-day availability, tailgate spreading (driver discretion), and any extra fees for difficult access or offloading.
