For a driveway over clay in Moreland, use a select or structural fill with low organic content and good gradation (a sand/soil mix or engineered fill) rather than topsoil. Also plan a proper base of crusher-run or 3/4" stone and a geotextile fabric to separate the clay subgrade — fill dirt raises grades but a granular base provides the structural surface for driveways.

A 50x20 ft area raised 6 inches equals about 500 cubic feet, or 18.5 cubic yards. Using a practical estimate of 1.2 tons per cubic yard, you would need about 22 tons; allow 10%-15% extra for compaction and settling and order about 24 to 25 tons. Remember Hello Gravel minimums and check your exact measurement with our material calculator.

Yes — larger grading projects can trigger local permitting and erosion control requirements. Contact Moreland City Hall and Coweta County Planning and Zoning before major fills, especially if work affects drainage, floodplains, or neighboring properties; Hello Gravel can deliver material, but you are responsible for local permits.

Moreland’s humid summers and clay subsoils can cause shrinking, swelling, and settlement of fill unless properly compacted and drained. Use staged compaction, positive drainage (slope, swales), and a gravel cap where needed to reduce saturation and long-term movement.

Some local suppliers and contractors in the West Georgia area provide measured delivery, spreading, and compaction as add-on services. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and you can request spreading or compaction in order notes, but compaction is often a separate contracted service — confirm availability and pricing when you get a quote.

For small patches use a plate compactor or jumping jack for 4" to 6" lifts; for larger areas use a walk-behind vibratory roller or a ride-on roller for heavier compaction. Compact in thin lifts, condition moisture as needed, and rent or hire equipment locally for best results.

Fill dirt is primarily for raising or filling low areas and is not a durable driveway surface; screenings or crusher-run provide better interlock, drainage, and load-bearing capacity for driveways. Screenings/crusher-run may cost more per ton than low-grade fill but usually save money over time by reducing maintenance and providing a longer-lasting surface.

A properly compacted fill dirt pad with a gravel cap can last many years, often 10+ years, but it will need periodic checks after heavy rains. Inspect for settlement or pooling after wet seasons and add 1 to 2 inches of gravel or recompact low spots every few years as needed.

Fill dirt can correct minor ponding by raising grade, typically 6 to 12 inches for small low spots; for larger or recurring flooding problems you should consult a civil engineer and check permitting. Avoid creating new drainage issues for neighbors and consider combining fill with improved drainage like swales or pipe if water movement is significant.
