Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Crescent City address and unloads right where you point.
Fill dirt is the structural foundation for raising grade, backfilling foundations, and filling deep holes. In Crescent City, where the area gets about 74 inches of precipitation a year, the drainage behavior of the material matters as much as the volume. A well-chosen fill dirt with the right compaction helps prevent washout and settling under wet conditions.
Gravel Monkey supplies clean fill dirt by the ton, delivered by dump truck to your address. You pick the size and the delivery window online, and the truck comes to you.

Soils mapped in the Crescent City area are commonly moderately well drained. That means the existing ground sheds water at a moderate pace, which influences how much base stone or extra fill you might need under a driveway or pad. The ground around Crescent City is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper layer of compacted fill or added drainage rock earns its place in these conditions.
Crescent City receives around 74 inches of precipitation a year, and roughly 98 days bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling a fill dirt delivery onto firm ground matters more here than in drier climates. About 5 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but ground freezing is not a significant factor, so the workable season is long. The timing question is moisture rather than season.
As context, Del Norte County permitted about 23 single-family homes in 2024. For any new construction, fill dirt is the first step in creating a stable building pad that handles the local rainfall.

Plan for roughly 98 days each year that bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Those wet days can make the site muddy and affect compaction. Schedule deliveries during drier spells or prepare the site with drainage to keep the fill workable.
