Most suppliers price fill dirt by the cubic yard; a typical range in the Lexington area is about $12 to $35 per cubic yard. Because density varies, 1 cubic yard of fill dirt is roughly 1.2 to 1.4 tons, so if a vendor quotes by the ton expect per-ton prices to reflect that conversion and local moisture levels.

Yes, plain fill dirt is usually cheaper than decorative or crushed gravel because it is less processed and commonly used for subgrade and grading. Cost differences depend on type: clean, screened fill may cost more than rough fill, but in most cases fill dirt will be the lower-cost option per cubic yard.

A full-size pickup bed can often hold about one cubic yard of loose fill dirt, but weight can be an issue. Fill dirt is heavy and a full yard may exceed your truck's payload rating, so check your vehicle's GVWR before hauling or consider professional delivery to avoid damage or safety issues.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth. For typical grading or raising a yard, plan on multiple cubic yards — for example, a 10 ft by 10 ft area raised 6 inches needs about 5 cubic yards.

Yes, buying bulk fill dirt is almost always cheaper per cubic yard than buying the same material in bags. Bagged materials include packaging and retail markup; for projects in and around Lexington, bulk delivery from Hello Gravel is the more cost-effective choice for volumes beyond a few bags.

Local tri-axle dump trucks used by Hello Gravel suppliers commonly carry about 12 to 15 cubic yards loose, which translates to roughly 15 to 20 tons depending on the dirt's moisture and compaction. Truck sizes and capacities vary by carrier, so your checkout confirmation will list the expected truck type and load estimate.

Using local price ranges, a 12 to 15 cubic yard load could cost roughly $150 to $525 before taxes and fees, depending on supplier rates and delivery distance. For an accurate total for your address in Lexington, request a quote through Hello Gravel — we’ll factor in local sourcing, truck size, and available delivery windows.

One cubic yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 inches, 50 sq ft at 6 inches, and 25 sq ft at 12 inches. Since 1 cubic yard is roughly 1.2 to 1.4 tons, you can convert tons to coverage using that range, but for planning, work with cubic yards to pick the right volume for your project's desired depth.

Yes — fill dirt is commonly used to raise low areas, build up grades, and prepare subgrade before landscaping or paving. Make sure to compact in lifts, avoid burying organic topsoil, and consider drainage and local frost or rain patterns in West Georgia when planning your fill.

The cheapest option is typically 'rough' or uncompacted fill from local excavations, sometimes called borrow or clean fill, which has minimal screening or fines. Screened or engineered fill costs more; tell Hello Gravel your use (grading vs planting) so suppliers can match the appropriate, cost-effective material.

Measure the length, width, and desired depth in feet, multiply to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards. For example, a 20 ft by 10 ft area raised 6 inches is 20 x 10 x 0.5 = 100 cubic feet, or about 3.7 cubic yards; always order an extra 5-10% for compaction and settling.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
