Yes, Arlington County regulates grading, erosion control, and large fill projects; small residential deliveries for basic landscaping often do not need a permit but requirements depend on volume and whether you change drainage or grade. Before ordering large quantities, contact Arlington County Permits or the Department of Community Planning to confirm whether a permit, erosion controls, or inspections are needed. Also check for any tree-protection or stormwater rules that could apply to your property.

Topsoil is not typically rinsed before delivery; washing is more common for sands and aggregates. Moisture content of topsoil matters for spreading and plant establishment—very dry soil compacts differently than slightly moist soil—so plan watering after delivery if you need to settle or plant. If you have special moisture or cleanliness requirements, ask our team and we will relay them to the supplier, but exact moisture is not guaranteed.

Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order for bulk materials. Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; scheduling and availability can vary by supplier in the Washington-Arlington area.

They can. Many HOAs have rules about visible changes, plant types, and grading, and Arlington County has rules for altering site grade, drainage, and tree protection. Before ordering topsoil for a major project, review your HOA covenants and contact Arlington County permitting staff to confirm whether approvals, erosion controls, or inspections are required. For small lawn or garden refreshes, permits are often not needed, but checking first avoids surprises.

Use the simple formula: 1 cubic yard of topsoil covers 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth (so at 6 inches depth it covers about 54 sq ft). Topsoil volume is usually sold by the cubic yard or by weight; as a rough guide a cubic yard commonly weighs about 1,000 to 1,600 lbs (roughly 0.5 to 0.8 tons), but actual weight varies by moisture and blend. Use our online calculator or contact us with your area and desired depth and we will recommend quantities for your West Arlington project.

Yes, you can add color or texture preferences in the Order Notes at checkout, and we will pass them to the local supplier. Due to regional sourcing and natural variability, exact matches to photos cannot be guaranteed, but suppliers often offer screened, loamy, or compost-amended options to meet common landscaping needs. If color or composition is critical, request a sample or ask our team for product photos before delivery.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
