How much does it cost to fill in a pool?

[mike92104]

I just want a ballpark figure, and maybe an explanation of some of the cost variables involved.

I don’t have a pool, but this is an interesting question: About $100 at 2008 rates.

I made the assumption that an “average” pool size is about 20,000 gallons. 2008 average price per gallon for residential customers of San Diego was .00463 dollars. I rounded this to .005. (I would have used projected 2009 prices if I could have found them)

Yeah, sorry. I should specify that I am asking about filling a pool with dirt to essentially get rid of it.
