Fill Dirt in uvalda, GA

Fill dirt is subsoil with little organic matter used to raise grades, fill holes, and backfill around foundations. Topsoil is the rich, organic layer used for planting and lawns. In Uvalda, fill dirt from local suppliers will reflect regional clay and sand content, so it is not suitable for gardening without mixing in topsoil.

Generally yes — fill dirt is usually less expensive per ton than crushed gravel because it is unprocessed subsoil. Local prices in Uvalda vary by source and haul distance, so compare quotes through Hello Gravel to see current local rates and delivery costs. Remember the minimum order is 3 tons.

A typical tri-axle dump truck that Hello Gravel uses carries roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards of material. For fill dirt that usually converts to about 12 to 20 tons depending on moisture and compaction. If you need a precise figure for your delivery in Uvalda, ask your Hello Gravel quote to list yards and estimated tons.

If you get about 12 cubic yards delivered and spread at a 4-inch depth, it will cover roughly 900 to 1,000 square feet. At 6 inches depth the same load covers about 600 to 700 square feet. Tell us the desired finish depth in your Hello Gravel order so we can estimate coverage and recommend the right amount for Uvalda projects.

Many full-size pickups can carry about 1 to 1.5 cubic yards of loose material with the tailgate up, but payload limits and safety vary. For most Uvalda homeowners, professional delivery is easier — Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and handles dumping and logistics. If you plan a DIY pickup, measure your truck bed and check payload capacity before loading.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet — roughly a pile 3 feet by 3 feet by 3 feet. Spread out, one cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth. Local fill in Uvalda may have a clayey tan-brown color and will compact more than loose topsoil.

One ton of fill dirt is roughly 0.7 to 0.8 cubic yards depending on moisture and compaction. Spread at a 4-inch depth, one ton will cover about 60 to 70 square feet; at a 2-inch depth it covers roughly 120 to 130 square feet. Use these estimates for planning, and request a precise quantity from Hello Gravel based on your required depth.

For 1,000 square feet at a 4-inch finished depth you need about 12.3 cubic yards, which is roughly 15 to 17 tons depending on soil density. At a 6-inch depth that jumps to about 18.5 cubic yards or roughly 24 to 28 tons. Enter your area and desired depth into Hello Gravel's calculator or ask our team for a tailored estimate for Uvalda.

Sourcing local contractors or municipalities with excess subsoil can sometimes be cheapest, but availability and quality vary and there may be hidden costs like hauling or contamination risk. Using Hello Gravel lets you compare honest local supplier prices and delivery fees in one place, with the convenience of scheduled delivery. Always confirm material suitability for your project rather than taking free material sight-unseen.

You can place gravel over fill dirt, but the fill must be well compacted and stable first to avoid future settling and ruts. For driveways you should compact the fill, add a suitable base course, and consider a geotextile fabric where drainage or soft spots are an issue. If you need help, Hello Gravel can deliver the right fill and recommend typical base depths for local conditions.

Clear vegetation and debris, mark or flag any areas where you do not want the truck to dump, and call 811 to locate utilities before you order. Make sure there is safe truck access and a reachable dump spot; narrow rural roads in and around Uvalda may require advance notice. Add delivery instructions in your Hello Gravel order notes and contact our team if access is tight.
