Why Hamlet Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hamlet has a city population of 9,220 and sits inside a metro area population of 2.3+ million, a region growing at 2.80% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, the local climate supports steady residential development and active outdoor projects. That steady growth drives demand for site prep, grading, foundation backfill, and drainage improvements—all projects that commonly need reliable bulk materials. Homeowners in Hamlet look for consistent, well-graded fill dirt to level yards, raise low spots above seasonal wet areas, and stabilize slopes; choosing the right fill dirt now can reduce future settling and costly rework.Popular Projects in Hamlet This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hamlet Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Hamlet.
Delivered fill dirt in Hamlet commonly ranges from about $12 to $28 per ton, depending on local supply, moisture content, and delivery distance. That converts roughly to $16 to $36 per cubic yard using typical densities; final price is shown at checkout and may vary by supplier.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery requires at least 2 business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and exact timing is confirmed before delivery.
Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle). Plan for a clear 10-12 foot-wide drive or access path, level turnaround if possible, and note overhead wires or low branches in the Order Notes so the driver can assess safe placement.
For grading and general fill in West North Carolina, contractors typically choose a compactible fill dirt with a mix of sand and clay (sometimes called structural fill) that drains moderately while compacting well. Avoid overly sandy or organic topsoil mixes under driveways; ask suppliers for locally sourced compactible fill dirt when ordering.
Most driveways need a compacted fill layer of 6 to 12 inches under the base aggregate, placed in 4-6 inch lifts and compacted between lifts with a plate compactor or roller. Aim for firm, even compaction; contractors often target a high relative compaction (consult your contractor for a project-specific spec).
Use this method: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards. For example, a 1,000 sq ft yard raised 6 inches (0.5 ft) is 1,000 x 0.5 / 27 = about 18.5 cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by a typical density of 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard to get tons (about 22 to 26 tons for that example).
Hamlet's humid climate and occasional freeze-thaw cycles can cause settling and minor erosion where fill dirt is not compacted or drained properly. Proper compaction, grading for drainage, and finishing with a protective surface (grass, sod, or base aggregate) reduce maintenance frequency.
Permit requirements vary by project scope and location; small landscaping fills often do not require permits, but large fills, grading changes, or work in regulated areas may. Check with the City of Hamlet or Richmond County building and planning departments before ordering large volumes.
Common alternatives include screened topsoil, structural engineered fill, coarse sand, and crushed stone base. Fill dirt is typically the least expensive option per ton; engineered or crushed materials cost more but offer better compaction or drainage depending on the project.
Basic equipment includes a skid steer or mini-excavator for spreading and a plate compactor or small roller for compaction. Contractor rates vary, but expect machine and operator rates around $75 to $150 per hour for small local crews, or flat fees of several hundred dollars for typical yard fills; get local quotes for accurate pricing.
Yes. Avoid placing large fills during the wettest periods or heavy rain forecasts because saturated fill is harder to compact and more prone to settling. Late spring through early fall tend to offer better conditions, while winter freeze-thaw can complicate grading and compaction.
Include driveway access details, preferred drop location, any obstacles or overhead lines, project timing constraints, and whether you want the driver to consider tailgate spreading (it is at the driver's discretion). Adding clear notes helps suppliers dispatch the right truck and avoid delays.
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.
