Why Waxhaw Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Waxhaw is a growing community with a city population of 67,590 and sits inside a broader metro area of 2.3+ million people. With a steady growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and builders increasingly take on grading, landscape, and small‑scale construction projects that require dependable base materials. Waxhaw’s moderate climate—about 34.00 inches of rain per year, 228/year sunny days, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports diverse landscaping but also creates seasonal wet periods that make proper grading and stable fill critical. Homeowners look for quality Fill Dirt to raise low spots, build level pads for sheds and patios, and create consistent, compactable layers that reduce future settling and help direct water away from foundations.Popular Projects in Waxhaw This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Waxhaw Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Waxhaw.
Fill dirt is generally cheaper per cubic yard than gravel because it is less processed and often comes from excavation spoils. Prices vary by local supply and delivery, so for an accurate cost for Waxhaw projects get a quote from Hello Gravel that includes delivery and any hauling fees.
Fill dirt is mostly subsoil with few fines or organic materials and is used to raise grade, fill holes, and build a stable subgrade. Gravel is crushed rock used for drainage and surfaces; in Waxhaw you would use fill dirt to shape or raise ground and then top with gravel or topsoil depending on your final use.
Yes, fill dirt can be used to level low spots, but it must be placed in thin lifts and compacted to prevent long-term settlement. If you plan to plant lawn or gardens afterward, add 4-6 inches of topsoil or amended soil over the compacted fill dirt because fill dirt lacks organic matter.
You can place gravel over compacted fill dirt, but for a stable, long-lasting surface you should compact the fill, install a crushed-stone base if needed, and consider a geotextile fabric to reduce mixing. In Waxhaw's clay-prone soils and wet seasons, proper base and drainage are especially important to prevent rutting and washout.
Use the formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in feet) / 27. For example, 1,000 sq ft at 3 inches (0.25 ft) equals about 9.3 cubic yards; at 6 inches it equals about 18.5 cubic yards. Always order 5-10% extra to account for settling and compaction.
A tri-axle dump truck commonly carries about 12-15 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. Delivered load prices vary with local supply, truck access, and distance; a typical delivered range is roughly $200 to $800 per truckload, so get a Hello Gravel quote for an accurate price in Waxhaw.
Delivered fill dirt prices vary, but a common delivered range in the region is roughly $10 to $45 per cubic yard depending on quality, hauling distance, and site access. Contact Hello Gravel for an exact per-yard price for your Waxhaw address and project size.
Assuming a 20 ft by 100 ft driveway where you add 4 inches of fill to raise and grade, you would need about 30 cubic yards (20 x 100 x 0.333 ft / 27). At a regional delivered price range, expect material costs in the low hundreds to a few thousand dollars; final cost depends on compaction, trucking, and whether you add a gravel base.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve the Waxhaw/Charlotte area. Enter your zip code on our site or call the sales team to check availability, get a material suggestion, and schedule delivery; minimum orders generally start around 3 tons.
Yes. Waxhaw is a growing suburban town with some rural outskirts; narrow roads, low-hanging trees, or gated drives can affect truck access. When ordering, add site notes and photos so your Hello Gravel delivery partner can plan for safe offloading and confirm if tailgate spreading may be possible.
No. Fill dirt is meant for grading and structural fill and usually lacks organic matter and nutrients needed for plants. For planting or lawns in Waxhaw's climate, place 4-6 inches of quality topsoil or mix in compost over the fill dirt to support growth.
The 70/30 rule typically refers to mixing 70% topsoil with 30% compost to create a planting-friendly soil. Fill dirt should not be included in that mix because it lacks organics; if you have brought in fill dirt, add proper topsoil and compost rather than relying on the fill dirt for garden soil.
Local rules vary, so for large deliveries or projects that change site drainage or grade you should check with Union County and the Town of Waxhaw, and review any HOA guidelines. Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics, but you should confirm permit requirements before ordering large quantities.
Clear vegetation and mark utilities, grade any standing water away from structures, and provide a safe unloading area for the dump truck. Note site access, driveway width, and any overhead obstructions in your order notes so the driver can plan a safe delivery.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
