Yes — for basic grading and raising low spots, fill dirt is usually cheaper per cubic yard than gravel in West Georgia. Fill dirt is intended for building up soil levels, while gravel is better for drainage and vehicle surfaces, so choose based on function not just price.

Typical dump trucks used locally (tri-axle) carry about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill dirt, which often equals roughly 12 to 18 tons depending on moisture and soil type. If you need a lighter or smaller load, ask about short-load options when you check availability for your zip code.

Measure the area and desired depth in inches, then use volume math: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards. Fill dirt in Powder Springs commonly weighs about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard loose, so multiply cubic yards by that factor to estimate tons. If you prefer, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for help.

Coverage depends on depth. One cubic yard covers 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth; because 1 cubic yard of loose fill dirt in West Georgia is roughly 1.2 to 1.4 tons, 1 ton is about 0.8 to 0.9 cubic yards. As a rule of thumb, expect around 250 to 300 sq ft at a 1-inch depth per ton, and scale up for deeper fills.

Costs vary by length and depth, but to estimate materials for a 20 ft-wide driveway: for a 100 ft length with a 4-inch fill-dirt base and 3-inch gravel surface, you would need roughly 25 cubic yards of fill dirt and 15 to 20 cubic yards of gravel. Using typical local rates, material and delivery could range widely; request a quote through Hello Gravel with exact dimensions for a specific price.

Yes, fill dirt is commonly used to raise and level yards before installing gravel. Hello Gravel supplies and delivers fill dirt to Powder Springs, but we do not perform grading or compaction as part of delivery — drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but that is not guaranteed.

Yes, compaction is important in West Georgia where clay soils are common; compacted fill reduces settling and helps prevent ruts under gravel. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery only and does not provide mechanical compaction or full grading services. We recommend hiring a local contractor or renting compacting equipment after delivery.

For medium to large projects, bulk tri-axle loads are generally the most cost-effective per ton because delivery overhead is spread over more material. For small jobs or tight access, a short-load or using a pickup may be cheaper overall despite a higher per-ton price. Check availability and pricing for your zip code on Hello Gravel to compare options.

A full cubic yard may physically fit in many full-size pickups, but weight limits can make it unsafe — local Georgia truck weight limits and your truck's payload rating matter. Hello Gravel's standard minimum order is 3 tons; if you need less, ask about short-load partners and local suppliers who sometimes offer small-quantity deliveries in Powder Springs.

Powder Springs and West Georgia commonly feature clay-rich soils that hold water and compress differently than sandy soils. For projects that need drainage or structural stability, ask for clean fill or engineered fill and plan for compaction; adding gravel for surface drainage is often recommended in this area.

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.
