Fill Dirt in Rock Spring, GA

Prices vary with volume, delivery distance, and local supplier.

Yes. Fill dirt is usually cheaper than gravel because it is unprocessed subsoil without stone, while gravel is crushed or screened rock and costs more to produce and transport. Expect to pay more if you choose gravel for drainage or finished surfaces.

Fill dirt is subsoil used to raise or grade land and typically contains fines, clay, and small roots but few rocks. Gravel is an aggregate of crushed stone or rounded rock used for drainage, driveways, and decorative surfaces; it drains better and is more stable as a surface material.

Cost depends on truck size and your location. Most dump truck loads in our network range from about 10 to 18 tons for tri-axle trucks, so at local rates that usually runs roughly $150 to $500 delivered in the Rock Spring area; request a quote for an exact price and available truck types.

A standard full-size pickup bed holds about 1 to 2 cubic yards, so 1 cubic yard will fit physically. Be careful about weight: fill dirt is heavy and may exceed your truck's payload capacity, so check your truck’s payload rating before hauling.

It depends on the depth you need. For 1,000 sq ft: 1 inch = about 3.1 cubic yards (≈3.7 tons), 3 inches = about 9.3 cubic yards (≈11.1 tons), 6 inches = about 18.5 cubic yards (≈22.2 tons), and 12 inches = about 37.0 cubic yards (≈44.4 tons). Use these numbers to get local pricing through Hello Gravel's calculator.

One cubic yard is a roughly 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft pile (27 cubic feet). Visually it’s about the size of a large washing machine or three to four full-size garbage bins stacked together.

One ton of fill dirt is about 0.83 cubic yards (varies with moisture and composition). That will cover roughly 270 sq ft at 1/8" thickness, 135 sq ft at 1/4" thickness, about 67 sq ft at 1/2" thickness, and 34 sq ft at 1" thickness; adjust for your target depth.

You can, but preparation is important. Compact the fill dirt, correct grades for drainage, and consider a geotextile fabric or a compacted crushed stone base before spreading gravel to reduce settling and rutting—local West Georgia soils can settle more if not compacted properly.

Yes, fill dirt is commonly used to raise low spots and regrade yards. For lawns or planting, add a finishing layer of topsoil for vegetation and make sure each lift of fill is compacted and slopes maintain proper drainage away from structures.

Dump truck capacities vary by truck type. In our delivery network: pickup loads are 1–2 tons, single-axle trucks 4–8 tons, tandem-axle 8–12 tons, and tri-axle trucks commonly carry about 10–18 tons; check the truck type in your Hello Gravel quote.

Ordering in bulk from local suppliers and scheduling standard delivery is the most cost-effective approach. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers, order the right volume (minimum 3 tons), and avoid small, multiple deliveries which raise per-ton costs.
