Fill Dirt in woodbine, GA

Delivered fill dirt prices in Woodbine typically range from about $12 to $25 per ton depending on supplier, truckload size, and season. Exact pricing varies by zip code and current local supply; use our calculator or request a quote for the most accurate rate.

Woodbine is in Georgia's coastal plain with clay-rich soils and a humid, rainy climate, which increases the risk of slow drainage and post-placement settling. Wet conditions reduce compaction efficiency, so place and compact fill in thinner lifts during drier periods and allow time for natural settlement before final grading.

A general rule is 1 cubic yard of loose fill dirt equals about 1.2 to 1.4 tons; compacted material can range from 1.5 to 1.7 tons per cubic yard. For example: a small yard raise of 4 cubic yards ≈ 4.8–5.6 tons loose, and a 10-foot-by-10-foot driveway-grade raise of 6 inches requires about 5 cubic yards ≈ 6–7 tons loose.

Permit requirements vary by use: minor yard grading typically needs no permit, but structural fills, foundation backfill, and septic system fill often require permits or engineered designs from Camden County. Always check with Woodbine or Camden County building and health departments before placing large or structural fills to confirm local code and permit needs.

Because Woodbine soils can be clayey and prone to runoff after heavy rain, plan positive grading away from structures, add swales or French drains where needed, and protect disturbed areas with silt fence, straw, or erosion control matting. For steeper slopes, consider geotextile fabric, native vegetation, or stone riprap to reduce erosion during the rainy season.

Fill dirt alone is not a long-term driveway base; it will settle and rut under traffic. For driveways, use fill dirt only as bulk lift to build grade, then install a well-compacted road base and 2–3 inches of surface stone. Raised yard areas can last, but expect some settling over months; regrading and adding topsoil or stone may be needed after settling.

Fill dirt is the most economical option for bulk raising and backfill but lacks stability and drainage for a driveway surface. Road base, granite screenings, or recycled concrete offer better compaction, load-bearing capacity, and drainage for driveways, though they cost more per ton. Use fill dirt to build grade, then cap with road base or crushed stone for durability.

Schedule deliveries during drier months when soils are firmer—typically late fall through early spring—to reduce washout and improve compaction. Avoid placing large fills during heavy summer thunderstorms or hurricane season; if rain is forecast, delay delivery or protect the area with temporary erosion controls.

For small jobs, a rented plate compactor is usually sufficient and costs roughly $50–$120 per day; for larger areas, a walk-behind vibratory roller or tow-behind roller may be $100–$300 per day to rent. Hiring a contractor with a small roller or mini-excavator plus compaction can range from a few hundred to over $1,000 depending on scale—get local quotes for accurate pricing.
