Why Collettsville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Collettsville has a city population of 540 and sits within a West North Carolina region that is growing at 2.80% annually. The local climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports active landscaping while creating specific grading and drainage needs on many residential lots. As homeowners take on driveway repairs, yard regrades, raised beds, and small additions, demand for dependable bulk materials rises. Fill Dirt is commonly used to raise low spots, backfill foundations and trenches, build terraces, and establish a stable subgrade for pavers or gravel. For DIYers, selecting the right fill and planning compaction and drainage is essential to avoid settling and standing water over time.Popular Projects in Collettsville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Collettsville Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Collettsville.
Typical delivered prices for fill dirt in Collettsville vary with haul distance and supplier but often range from about $15 to $35 per ton (rough estimate). Pricing can be higher for small loads, remote deliveries, or sites with difficult access; check our checkout for exact local quotes and minimums (3 tons on our platform).
Use cubic yards to estimate volume then convert to tons (see next FAQ). As examples: raising 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches needs about 18.5 cubic yards, roughly 22 to 26 tons of fill dirt; creating a 4-inch driveway base over 1,000 sq ft needs about 12.3 cubic yards, roughly 15 to 17 tons. These are approximate and depend on compaction and moisture content.
Fill dirt typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard loose, depending on moisture and soil type. Use this range for rough conversions, and allow extra for compaction when ordering (we recommend ordering 5-10% more for compaction and waste).
Many local contractors avoid untreated organic-rich fill and prefer clean, well-graded fill or structural fill for pads and driveways. They compact in 6-8 inch lifts using a plate compactor or roller to reach firm densities; for building pads engineers often specify compaction percent and approved material, so plan to test and follow those specs.
Freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rainfall common in West North Carolina can cause frost heave, settlement, and erosion if fill dirt is poorly drained or high in fines. To reduce issues, use well-compacted, low-organic fill, install positive drainage, and place coarser material near the surface or drainage zones.
Fill dirt is meant for grading and raising grades, not as a finished wearing surface. For durable driveways use crushed stone, crusher run, class II road base, or a top layer of #57 stone over a compacted fill; fill dirt is acceptable as underlying mass but not the finished driving surface.
Suppliers in West North Carolina generally deliver year-round, but heavy rains, muddy roads, or winter weather can delay deliveries to rural Collettsville addresses. Small-quantity deliveries may be limited or incur extra fees during busy seasons, so check avaIlability and lead times when ordering.
Local permits and NCDOT standards can apply to driveway approaches, culverts, and any work within right-of-way, and Caldwell County may have specific requirements. Hello Gravel supplies materials, but you should confirm permit and spec requirements with Caldwell County or NCDOT before ordering for regulated work.
Surfaces over fill dirt require regular maintenance: expect regrading, adding stone, and compaction after heavy rains or annually for driveways in this terrain. PRoper initial compaction and drainage reduce maintenance frequency; untreated fill used as the wearing surface will need much more frequent attention.
Fill dirt is mostly fines and soil used to raise grades and backfill, while crusher run and class II road base contain angular stone for strength and compaction, and #57 is a clean stone good for top layers and drainage. For structural bases, roads, and driveways in Collettsville use crusher run or class II, and reserve fill dirt for leveling, backfill, and non-structural fill.
Deliveries in Collettsville normally use tri-axle dump trucks; narrow, steep, or low-clearance roads can limit truck access and may require offload at the road and additional handling. Weight limits on small bridges, gated driveways, and tight turns can also restrict deliveries, so provide site access notes and photos when ordering.

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.
