Fill Dirt in murrayville, GA

Prices vary by supplier and availability, but expect fill dirt delivered to Murrayville to typically run about $10 to $25 per ton. Final pricing depends on your zip code, delivery distance, and whether material is screened or bank-run; check our checkout for exact delivered pricing and note Hello Gravel minimums apply.

Raising 1,000 square feet by 6 inches is about 18.5 cubic yards, which translates to roughly 22 to 28 tons of fill dirt depending on moisture and compaction. Order an extra 5% to 10% to allow for settlement and compaction during installation.

For a driveway subgrade, screened or washed fill dirt is preferable to bank-run because it has fewer large clods and organic material, which helps it compact more uniformly. That said, fill dirt is not a long-term surface; for structural strength and drainage you should place and compact fill dirt as a subgrade, then use crushed stone or aggregate as the driving surface.

Local contractors commonly compact fill dirt in layers with plate compactors or rollers to reduce settling and improve stability, but compaction is a separate service from material delivery. Cost varies by job size and equipment; small landscaping jobs often add a few hundred dollars, while larger jobs are typically charged per square foot or by the hour, so get a local quote for an accurate price.

On clay-heavy soils fill dirt alone can lead to poor drainage and ongoing settling; you will usually need a properly prepared base. In North Georgia we recommend mixing or replacing the top layer with well-graded material, installing a layer of crushed stone, and using geotextile fabric or drainage pipes when needed to reduce moisture retention and improve stability.

Permit and HOA rules can vary; small landscaping fills often do not require permits, but significant grading, changing drainage, or constructing a driveway typically does. Check Hall County building and planning departments and any local HOA covenants before you order fill dirt to confirm permit requirements and setback or material restrictions.

If left as the top layer, fill dirt can settle or wash out within 1 to 3 years under vehicle traffic and heavy rain, especially on clay soils. When properly compacted and covered with a durable base like crushed stone, a correctly installed driveway base can last 5 to 15 years before needing major replenishment, depending on traffic and maintenance.

Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order. Delivery fees depend on distance, site access, and supplier; many orders in populated areas qualify for free delivery, while remote or difficult-access deliveries can carry a fee, commonly in the range of $0 to $150—check checkout or your quote for exact costs.

Use crushed stone or clean aggregate for perimeter drainage and around foundation footings because it allows water to flow away from the structure. Fill dirt is suitable for building up grade away from the foundation, but it should not be the primary material in a drainage layer.

Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Because Murrayville is a smaller community, supplier availability can vary, so schedule as early as possible to secure the dates you need.

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