Why Bahama Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bahama has a population of 3,470 and is part of a growing regional market experiencing a 2.80% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days a year, 34.00 inches of rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners here balance sunny, dry periods with enough seasonal rain to affect grading and settling. That steady growth and comfortable climate are driving local home improvements, yard regrading, and small construction projects that need reliable earthwork. Homeowners and contractors in Bahama turn to quality aggregates to get predictable compaction, pRoper drainage, and stable base layers for patios, lawn areas, and additions—especially where new construction meets existing yards and infrastructure.Popular Projects in Bahama This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bahama Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Bahama.
Costs vary by supplier, truck size, and travel distance from local quarries. A tri-axle dump (about 10-12 cubic yards) typically ranges from a low-cost local rate up to higher prices when long haul or special screening is required; the best way to get an accurate price for Bahama is to request a quote through Hello Gravel so you see material and delivery broken out. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is 2+ business days.
To estimate: multiply area (1,000 sq ft) by depth in feet and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. For example, 1,000 sq ft at 6 inches (0.5 ft) needs about 18.5 cubic yards, while at 3 inches it needs about 9.3 cubic yards. Use our calculator or get a quote from Hello Gravel to match local material compaction rates in Bahama.
Bahama is small, but many suppliers and haulers in the greater Raleigh-Durham-Granville area deliver here. Use Hello Gravel to check local avaIlability by zip code; we connect you with trusted local suppliers and schedule professional dump truck delivery. If you prefer to call, ask local landscaping yards in Durham or Granville County about screened or clean fill dirt.
Calculate volume by multiplying length by width by depth. For a 20 ft by 10 ft strip at 6 inches, volume = 20 x 10 x 0.5 ft = 100 cu ft, which is about 3.7 cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by the supplier price per yard and add delivery; request a Hello Gravel quote to see exact costs for Bahama and to include hauling and any fees.
No, 2 inches of fill dirt is not enough for a driveway base. Driveways typically need a compacted subbase of 4-8 inches of suitable material plus a gravel or surface layer, and fill dirt is best used to raise grade or fill holes, not as the final driving surface. For Bahama projects, plan for pRoper compaction and a structural base layer before adding surface materials.
To lower cost, buy local material, order larger quantities to reduce per-yard pricing, and compare suppliers through Hello Gravel. Reusing onsite subsoil where appropriate or asking contractors for leftover load opportunities can also save money. Always confirm material suitability—cheap fill with organics can cause settlement and future costs.
Fill dirt weight and density vary, but a practical rule: one ton of typical fill dirt equals roughly 0.9 cubic yards and will cover about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth. For thinner or thicker layers adjust proportionally; for precise coverage in Bahama, request the local material density on your Hello Gravel quote. Remember compaction reduces final volume, so factor that into your order for settling.
A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft. At a 6-inch depth you need about 7.4 cubic yards of fill dirt; multiply that by the supplier price per cubic yard and add delivery and compaction costs to estimate total. Prices vary by local supply and haul distance in the Bahama area, so get a tailored quote from Hello Gravel to see material, delivery, and optional services broken out.
The 70/30 rule (commonly 70% topsoil to 30% compost) applies to creating planting mixes and is not appropriate for fill dirt. Fill dirt is low in organic matter and not suitable for direct planting; if you plan landscaping in Bahama, topdress with a topsoil-compost mix or import topsoil rather than relying on fill dirt for planting beds. Use fill dirt for grading and structural fill, then cap with pRoper planting soil.
Choose clean, well-graded subsoil with low organic content and good compaction characteristics for driveways and grade work. Avoid topsoil or organic-rich material because they compress and settle; ask suppliers for 'clean fill' or 'structural fill' and verify grain size and organic content. Hello Gravel can help source appropriate local material and arrange delivery to Bahama.
No. Topsoil is the upper, organic-rich layer used for planting and supporting plant growth, while fill dirt is subsoil with little organic matter used to raise levels or fill voids. For Bahama landscaping, use fill dirt for structural fill and grade work, and bring in topsoil or a topsoil-compost mix for planting areas to ensure good plant performance.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
