Fill Dirt in Screven, GA

Yes. Fill dirt is usually cheaper than gravel because it is primarily subsoil and not processed for decorative use. In Screven and West Georgia you can expect fill dirt to cost less per cubic yard or ton than crushed stone or decorative gravel, though delivery and haul distance will affect the final price.

Prices vary by supplier, haul distance, and truck size, but delivered fill dirt in Screven typically ranges from about $12 to $35 per cubic yard (or roughly $10 to $30 per ton) as a general guideline. For an exact delivered price for your zip code and volume, check our calculator or request a quote from Hello Gravel.

Most local tri-axle dump trucks commonly used by our suppliers hold roughly 10 to 16 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. Depending on weight limits and soil density, that represents roughly 8 to 20 tons of material for a single truckload, so exact capacity depends on truck type and local weight regulations.

It depends on the depth you need. Use this quick rule: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For example, 1,000 sq ft at 2 inches needs about 6.2 cubic yards, at 6 inches about 18.5 cubic yards, and at 12 inches about 37 cubic yards.

Sometimes. A standard full-size pickup bed typically carries about 0.5 to 1.5 cubic yards depending on bed size and weight limits, so one cubic yard may fit in many trucks but not always safely. For larger jobs or guaranteed delivery, ordering by the yard or ton through Hello Gravel is the safer option.

One cubic yard is a pile roughly 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft and equals 27 cubic feet of material. A typical wheelbarrow holds about 3 cubic feet, so 1 cubic yard is about nine wheelbarrow loads.

Coverage depends on depth and soil density. As a rough estimate, 1 ton of fill dirt is close to about 0.7 to 1.0 cubic yard; at 6 inches depth, that covers roughly 40 to 60 square feet. For accurate coverage for your Screven project, convert your required cubic yards then use our weight-to-volume guidance or request help from Hello Gravel.

Yes you can in many cases, but consider compaction, drainage, and burying organic topsoil. In West Georgia, where clay soils are common, add fill in lifts and compact between lifts for stable grades, and avoid burying topsoil needed for planting. If utilities may run under the area, check before filling.

Yes. Topsoil contains organic matter and is screened for planting, so it typically costs more than plain fill dirt, which is used for raising grades or structural fill. Choose topsoil only where you plan to grow plants; use fill dirt for bulk elevation or backfill.

Costs depend on truck size, tons, and distance, but a delivered single-truck load of fill dirt in the Screven area commonly runs in a broad range of a few hundred to several hundred dollars. For an accurate cost based on the exact truck size and delivery location, request a quote from Hello Gravel since we negotiate local rates and handle scheduling.

Measure the area in square feet and decide the desired depth in inches, then use this formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. If you prefer, use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team with your measurements and we will help estimate yards and tons for Screven deliveries.

A typical tri-axle dump truck used for local deliveries carries varying tonnage based on local weight limits and soil density; most loads range from about 8 to 20 tons. Your exact tonnage for Screven depends on legal axle weights and whether the material is wet, clayey, or loosely placed—ask Hello Gravel to confirm for your order.

Yes. Because Hello Gravel sources locally, fill dirt in Screven will reflect local geology—often heavier clays in West Georgia—so color, texture, and density can vary between suppliers. If a particular texture or composition matters for your job, note preferences in Order Notes or ask our team for details before delivery.
