Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Duvall address and unloads right where you point.
Contractors ordering fill dirt for a construction site typically buy in larger volumes and need the material delivered on a firm schedule. Homeowners often call for smaller amounts to raise a low yard or fill a single hole. Both groups want the same thing: clean fill dirt that compacts well and does not settle.
Duvall receives about 51 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning an important step before you place any fill. Good fill dirt lets water flow through and settle without washing out.
Fill dirt is a structural material, not a growing medium. It is screened to remove large debris and organic matter so that it compacts into a stable base. Gravel Monkey delivers it by the ton, from a single ton up to 40 tons or more on a single truck.

Most fill dirt work runs from spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch. About 125 days a year in Duvall bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground takes a bit of planning. Wet weather can turn a fill site into mud if the soil is not prepared.
The area sees about 54 freezing days per year. That affects how long the ground stays workable and how much it moves during freeze-thaw cycles. Snowfall averages around 4 inches annually, enough that plowing can disturb a loose fill surface if it has not been compacted yet.
Soils mapped in the Duvall area are commonly moderately well drained. That means the existing ground tends to let water through at a moderate rate, so standard base depths for fill usually work without extra drainage layers. The ground around Duvall is in hydrologic group B, which takes water in at a moderate rate. You can usually plan for standard base thickness under the fill.
The tonnage depends on the area you are covering and how deep you need the fill to go. Use Gravel Monkey's fill dirt calculator to get a quick estimate based on your project dimensions. Enter length, width, and depth, and it returns the approximate tons required.
You order online by the ton, and the delivered price is calculated at checkout based on your ZIP code. A dump truck brings the fill dirt to your address, and the truck can carry anywhere from 1 to more than 40 tons per load. Orders over a certain threshold qualify for free delivery.
Your delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date, and you choose a morning or afternoon window. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. You receive an email confirmation and a second email closer to the date with the window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. You or someone you nominate must be present during the window. If the site has restricted access, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they can safely.

Yes, we deliver to Duvall and anywhere nearby. Duvall sees about 125 wet days per year, so scheduling delivery when the ground is firm helps avoid a muddy site.
Delivery cost is calculated at checkout based on your address and the tonnage you order. King County permitted about 2,352 single-family homes in 2024, which gives some sense of the construction activity that uses fill dirt in this area.
Fill dirt itself is not for planting. You need to add a layer of topsoil on top before seeding or sodding. Once the fill is compacted and the topsoil is in place, you can plant immediately if the weather allows.
Fill dirt is not graded by size like gravel. It is a single screened soil product that contains no large rocks or organic matter. We deliver it as a uniform material that compacts well for structural uses.
Fill dirt is one of the simplest materials to order, and it goes to work as soon as the truck leaves. Use the code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.
