Frequently Asked Questions - southclewiston Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in southclewiston.
Typical delivered prices in West Florida vary by supplier and distance; expect roughly $12 to $30 per ton. Because fill dirt volume varies with moisture and compaction, estimate about 1.2 tons per cubic yard, which works out to about $15 to $36 per cubic yard. Final pricing for South Clewiston orders depends on your zip code, truck access, and whether the material is screened or has extra hauling distance.
For foundations you want a compactable, low-organic engineered fill that can be placed and compacted in lifts; plain topsoil or loose sandy fill is not appropriate. For driveways and vehicle pads in South Clewiston's wet, sandy conditions, use fill dirt to raise grade but cap it with a compacted road base or crushed limestone for structure and drainage. For simple yard raising or landscaping, local fill dirt is fine so long as it is free of organic debris and properly compacted.
Place fill dirt in lifts of about 4 to 8 inches and compact each lift before adding the next; 6-inch lifts are common for consistent results. For small areas use a plate compactor or jumping jack; for larger pads use a vibratory roller or small drum roller to achieve a firm, non-yielding surface. Keep the material slightly moist (not saturated) to improve compaction, and avoid placing fill during heavy rain.
Multiply length by width by depth (in feet) to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards, and multiply cubic yards by about 1.2 to estimate tons. Example 1: 20 ft x 30 ft raised 4 in = 20*30*(4/12)=200 cu ft = 7.4 cu yd ≈ 8.9 tons. Example 2: 50 ft x 100 ft raised 6 in = 50*100*(6/12)=2,500 cu ft = 92.6 cu yd ≈ 111 tons; always round up and add 5-10% for settlement and compaction loss.
Possibly. South Clewiston and Hendry County fall under Florida wetland and water-management rules; placing fill near wetlands, floodplains, or water bodies often requires permits from the South Florida Water Management District, Hendry County planning, and sometimes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Before delivery, check with your county planning office and SFWMD and mention wetland proximity when you order so we can flag potential permit issues.
Fill dirt is intended to add bulk and raise grades but holds moisture and does not provide a stable, draining surface for traffic. Crushed limestone or engineered road base compacts denser, sheds water better, and provides a longer-lasting surface for driveways and pads in West Florida's rainy climate. A common approach in South Clewiston is to use fill dirt to build grade and then place and compact a layer of road base or crushed stone on top for durability and drainage.
Expect some settlement over months and even years after placement, especially in wet, sandy sites; periodic topping and regrading is common for uncovered fill areas. If the fill is properly compacted and capped with road base or vegetation, maintenance is minimal; uncovered fill used for driveways will require more frequent repairs unless capped with a stable surface. Erosion from heavy rains or runoff is the main maintenance issue, so consider erosion control and proper drainage when placing fill.
Screened fill dirt typically costs a premium because it has fewer rocks and debris and compacts more predictably; expect roughly $3 to $8 more per cubic yard for screened material in this region, though exact differences depend on the supplier and availability. Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons; delivery is by local dump trucks and the final cost may include haul distance and access considerations, so check pricing for your South Clewiston zip code.
Drivers may be able to provide tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request it at checkout and the driver will assess access, safety, and whether it can be done. Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services, so plan for a separate spreading contractor if you require a leveled, finished surface.
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.
