Fill Dirt in Pleasant Grove, UT

Prices for fill-dirt in Pleasant Grove vary by supplier, screening level, truck distance, and seasonal demand. We don’t publish fixed per-ton rates because costs change, but Hello Gravel can get you live quotes for your zip code and project size—minimum order is typically 3 tons.

Some Pleasant Grove and West Utah suppliers offer both screened (fewer rocks and debris) and unscreened bulk fill-dirt (cheaper, coarser). Gradation and specs differ by source, so ask for a supplier spec sheet or product gradation before you buy. When you order through Hello Gravel we can share supplier details and help request screening or quality information on your behalf.

Pleasant Grove’s cold winters and arid summers increase the risk of frost heave and shrink-swell movement in unprepared fill. To limit settlement, place fill-dirt in thin lifts, moisture-condition each lift, and mechanically compact—contractors often target roughly 90% of standard Proctor density for structural fills. For areas near foundations or paved surfaces consider geotextile stabilization and engineered fill rather than raw fill-dirt.

Use this quick rule: tons = area_sqft * depth_inches / 324 * 1.3 (1.3 tons per cubic yard is a typical estimate for compacted fill). For example, 1,000 sq ft at 4 inches deep is about 16 tons, and 100 sq ft at 1 inch is about 0.4 tons. Density varies by material, so get a site-specific estimate from Hello Gravel for precise ordering.

Pleasant Grove may require permits for significant grading or large volumes of imported fill, and Utah County can have separate rules for erosion control and stormwater. Small top-up deliveries for landscaping are often fine without a permit, but always check with Pleasant Grove City Building and Engineering departments and your HOA before ordering large quantities. If your project is near streams, wetlands, or public right-of-way, ask local officials first.

Some contractors blend fines or sand into fill to improve compaction and reduce future settling, but the right mix depends on your soil and project needs. In clay-prone West Utah soils, adding coarse sand without proper testing can create drainage or stability problems, so many pros prefer engineered fill or laboratory testing before modifying material. Ask a local contractor or geotechnical engineer for a recommendation and request supplier gradation data from Hello Gravel.

Hello Gravel’s standard delivery window is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and most local suppliers follow similar lead times. Minimum orders on our platform are typically 3 tons, and deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle). If you need tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but note drivers perform spreading at their discretion.

Fill-dirt is economical for mass filling but is not a good structural base for driveways because it doesn’t compact and drain as reliably as crusher-run or road base. Crusher-run (crushed rock with fines) compacts tightly and sheds water better, giving longer-lasting performance in Pleasant Grove’s freeze-thaw conditions. For a durable driveway use compacted road base under a wearing layer of crushed stone rather than relying on fill-dirt alone.

Uncompacted fill-dirt surfaces tend to settle, rut, and require regrading—you may need touch-ups after the first winter or heavy rains if compaction was inadequate. Properly compacted fill topped with appropriate base and surface material will reduce maintenance and extend service life, but freeze-thaw cycles still make occasional grading and re-compaction likely. For long-term performance, invest in compaction, drainage, and a stable surfacing layer.

Yes, local West Utah fill-dirt can include high clay content, organics, or stray debris depending on the source, and those characteristics affect drainage and plant health. If you plan to use fill for landscaping, gardens, or load-bearing areas, ask the supplier for material details and consider soil testing for contaminants and particle size. Hello Gravel can request supplier information and help arrange tests or recommend alternative materials when needed.

If you want the driver to spread fill-dirt, select the tailgate spreading request at checkout, but understand the driver will assess safety and access on site and spreading is not guaranteed. Provide clear delivery instructions, a photos of the site if possible, and note any obstacles, driveway width, or offloading directions in Order Notes. For precise placement or compaction, hire a local crew; Hello Gravel coordinates delivery but does not guarantee spreading or finishing services.

Do not place untreated fill-dirt directly against foundation walls without guidance from a structural or geotechnical engineer; use engineered backfill with proper compaction and drainage to limit hydrostatic pressure and freeze-thaw damage. For retaining wall backfill, use well-graded granular material and drainage rock behind the wall rather than loose fill-dirt. When in doubt, consult your contractor or engineer and ask Hello Gravel for material recommendations and supplier specs before ordering.

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

Please type in your zip code on any product screen and it will let you know if we service your area. The chances are that we do!

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
