Fill Dirt in West Kaysville, UT

Fill-dirt is bulk soil used to raise grade, fill holes, or bring a site to finished elevation. In West Kaysville it is commonly used for yard grading, utility trenches, and landscaping pads; it is not usually the best choice for driveway subbases or structural backfill unless specified by an engineer.

Typical delivered prices for basic fill-dirt in West Kaysville range roughly from $8 to $20 per ton, depending on moisture content, screening, and site access. Hello Gravel can produce a firm quote for your address and note that minimum orders start at 3 tons and delivery timing can affect price.

Use this formula: cubic yards = (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For a 20'x30' area at 6", that equals about 11.1 cubic yards, which converts to roughly 13 to 16 tons of fill-dirt assuming about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard; order a small overage for settlement and compaction.

Generally no for structural applications: West Kaysville's freeze-thaw cycles and drainage needs make granular, well-draining materials like road base or crushed rock a better choice for driveway subbases and foundation backfill. Fill-dirt is suitable for non-structural grade raising and landscaping, but engineered or clean backfill may be required under slabs and retaining walls.

Fine-grained fill-dirt that contains fines or organics can retain moisture and be susceptible to frost heave during freeze-thaw cycles common in this area. To reduce risk, use well-compacted, low-organic fill or granular materials and provide proper drainage away from foundations and paved surfaces.

Aim for about 90% to 95% relative compaction (Standard Proctor) where required by code or your engineer, and place fill in lifts rather than one big layer. For small areas use a vibratory plate compactor; for larger areas use a roller or tandem vibratory roller, and adjust moisture so the soil compacts properly without becoming muddy.

Fill-dirt is fine-grained soil good for bulk grade raising and landscape fills but it lacks the drainage and load-bearing properties of road base or crushed rock. Use road base or crushed rock for driveway subbases and load-bearing layers, and choose clean or engineered fill when codes require low-settlement material under structures.

Davis County and city jurisdictions commonly require engineered fill, compaction testing, or specific lift thicknesses for structural foundations and certain retaining walls; requirements vary by project and soil conditions. Always confirm with the West Kaysville building department and your geotechnical engineer before placing fill-dirt under structural elements.

Expect some settlement, especially within the first year as the material consolidates; plan to top up low spots and regrade as needed. Maintain positive drainage, avoid concentrating water on new fills, and consider installing a more durable surfacing (gravel or pavement) over properly prepared base material for long-term use.

Deliveries are typically by tri-axle dump truck, so check site access, overhead wires, and driveway width before ordering; tight access may require smaller trucks or additional fees. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, delivery generally takes 2+ business days with a next-day option before noon CST, and prices may rise in spring/summer peak season or when frost/frozen ground makes placement harder.

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