Frequently Asked Questions - Dillsboro Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Dillsboro.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10–12 cubic yards of fill dirt. Delivered prices in Western North Carolina commonly fall in the range of $150–$420 per truckload, depending on screening, distance, and supplier; small loads or screened/clean fill cost more. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and can show exact local quotes for Dillsboro when you enter your zip code.
Per-cubic-yard prices for basic fill dirt in Western NC often range from about $15–$35 per cubic yard for bulk delivery, but screened or clean fill is usually at the higher end. Most local suppliers that Hello Gravel works with deliver to Dillsboro, though price and avaIlability vary by supplier, road access, and distance from the source.
For 1,000 sq ft: 2 inches = about 6.2 cubic yards, 6 inches = about 18.5 cubic yards, and 1 foot = about 37.0 cubic yards. Add 10–15% extra to allow for compaction and settling, so order roughly 6.8, 20.4, and 40.5 cubic yards respectively.
Material-only for 100 cubic yards of basic fill dirt commonly runs roughly $1,500–$3,500, depending on whether the material is screened and how far it must be hauled. Spreading and compaction are usually separate charges: spreading by a truck driver is at their discretion and not guaranteed, and professional spreading/compaction by a contractor will add labor and equipment costs.
Fill dirt is generally cheaper per cubic yard than crushed stone, but it is not a good driveway base because it does not drain or compact to a stable wearing surface. For driveways in Dillsboro's hilly, often clay-prone soils, use fill dirt only to raise or grade low spots, then install a compacted crushed-stone base for the driveway surface.
You can put gravel over native dirt in some flat, well-draining locations, but in Dillsboro you’ll usually get better results if you first grade and compact the subgrade and, where needed, add and compact fill dirt or a granular subbase. In many cases contractors also install a geotextile fabric to separate the native soil from the aggregate and reduce sinking and mixing.
Most material suppliers and dump-truck haulers provide delivery only; spreading and compaction are typically done by a separate contractor. Hello Gravel can connect you with local suppliers and haulers, but for spreading, grading, and compaction you should plan to hire a local excavator or landscaping contractor.
Use Hello Gravel to check local suppliers that source materials in Western North Carolina; you can see screened or clean fill options if avaIlable in the area. Some suppliers do offer small-load deliveries, but there is typically a minimum (Hello Gravel’s platform enforces a 3-ton minimum) and small orders often carry higher per-yard delivery fees—confirm access restrictions for Dillsboro’s narrow roads and curbside drop locations in Order Notes.
For a 20-ft wide by 100-ft long example (2,000 sq ft), a 6" compacted fill base requires about 37 cubic yards of fill dirt and a 4" crushed-stone wearing surface needs about 25 cubic yards of stone. Material and delivery might total roughly $1,300–$3,000 for fill dirt plus $750–$1,800 for stone, with additional charges for grading and compaction; final cost depends on site access, slope, and contractor rates.
Buy fill dirt for raising grades and filling voids where vegetation growth is not required; screened topsoil is for areas where you plan to seed or plant and costs more per yard. Use crushed stone or crushed gravel for structural base and drainage under driveways and paths; crushed stone is typically pricier than raw fill dirt but provides the stability and drainage needed for hard-surface areas.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
