Why Climax Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Climax is a small community with a city population of 3,060 inside a growing West North Carolina region that sits within a metro area population of 2.3+ million and is expanding at a growth rate of 2.80% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners here are actively updating yards, building additions, and addressing drainage. That steady local growth and mixed climate mean frequent needs for reliable fill — for raising grades, stabilizing foundations, and correcting low spots. Homeowners seek quality fill dirt to avoid future settling, improve compaction, and create a stable base for landscaping and structures; using the right material now reduces rework and protects long-term value.Popular Projects in Climax This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Climax Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Climax.
Delivered prices vary with supplier, distance, and load size, but in the Climax area you can generally expect fill dirt to range roughly $10 to $35 per cubic yard (about $8 to $30 per ton). Final cost depends on truck type, access, and whether spreading or special handling is requested; get an exact delivered price by entering your zip code on our site or requesting a quote.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers that serve the West North Carolina area and can quote small loads to Climax. Minimum order sizes are commonly 3 tons; delivery fees vary by supplier and distance, so the fastest way to see who can deliver and the exact fee is to request a quote through our checkout or call our team.
For 100 sq ft, use these estimates with about 20% allowance for compaction: 1 inch = 0.31 yd3 (~0.43 tons; order ~0.52 tons), 3 inches = 0.92 yd3 (~1.29 tons; order ~1.55 tons), 6 inches = 1.85 yd3 (~2.59 tons; order ~3.10 tons), 12 inches = 3.70 yd3 (~5.17 tons; order ~6.21 tons.). These are estimates—soil density and compaction vary, so use our material calculator or call for a project-specific estimate.
Fill dirt is good for raising grade and filling low spots, but it is not an ideal wearing surface for driveways in the clay-rich, occasionally wet soils around Climax. For driveways, contractors typically place compacted fill dirt to build grade, then add a granular base like crushed stone for drainage and stability. Ensure proper compaction, drainage (swales or pipes), and a stable top layer to reduce rutting and washouts.
Freeze-thaw in central North Carolina is moderate, but seasonal temperature swings and wet periods can cause settling if fill is not properly compacted. Best practice is to place fill in thin lifts and compact each lift; in clay-heavy fills consider mixing with granular material or using geotextile to improve stability. Additives like lime or cement are used only for engineered fills—talk to a contractor to determine if stabilization is needed for your project.
Contractors in the region typically prefer clean, compactible fill with minimal organics for structural fills and slopes—screened or engineered fill is common. For slopes, a mix with some granular content improves drainage and reduces long-term settlement; finish with topsoil only where you will plant. For critical fills, contractors may specify compaction standards and gradation, so ask for a material spec when ordering.
If properly compacted, graded, and covered with a suitable surface (crushed stone, asphalt, pavers), fill dirt used as subgrade can last many years with little maintenance. Uncompacted or poorly drained fills in low spots can settle within 1 to 3 years and may need spot replenishment sooner. Good drainage and initial compaction are the biggest factors in long-term performance.
Use fill dirt for bulk raising and structural fill where planting is not required, topsoil for the final planting layer and lawns, and crushed stone where drainage and load-bearing surface are needed (driveways, pads, or French drains). Often a combination works best: fill dirt to build grade, a layer of crushed stone for drainage, and topsoil on top where you want vegetation.
Permit requirements vary by the scope of work and exact location; small yard grading often does not require a permit, but large structural fills, changes to stormwater flow, or work in regulated areas may need permits or inspections. Check with Guilford County planning and zoning or your local municipality before starting larger regrades or fills to confirm requirements.

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.
