Frequently Asked Questions - Enka Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Enka.
Fill dirt is clean, mineral-rich soil with minimal organic material used to raise grades, fill low spots, and backfill around foundations. In Enka and West North Carolina it’s commonly used for yard grading, building pads, and landscaping where you need stable, long-term soil rather than topsoil for planting. It is not meant for planting beds because it lacks nutrients and organic matter.
Western North Carolina soils often contain clay and loam that can hold water; combined with Enka’s winter freeze-thaw cycles, that can cause settlement and heaving if fill isn’t compacted properly. Use clean, well-graded fill placed in thin lifts and compacted, and include drainage measures to reduce frost-related movement. For critical areas near foundations, ask for engineered or structural fill and a compaction spec from your contractor.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, and most local suppliers deliver on tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10–12 cubic yards per load depending on material. Staging or handling fees may apply if the truck cannot safely access the drop zone, if offloading requires extra labor, or if permits or special equipment are needed. Always request a detailed quote for your Enka address so truck size, access, and any staging fees are confirmed up front.
For driveways you generally want a structural base like crushed stone or road base—fill dirt alone is not recommended because it compacts unevenly and can rut when wet. For yard grading and raising low spots, choose a clean fill dirt blend with low organic content for stability; mix in coarse sand or crushed stone under any paved area for improved compaction and drainage. When in doubt, use fill dirt for bulk raising and follow with an aggregate base layer where vehicle traffic is expected.
Enka is in Buncombe County, and major grading, retaining walls, or significant site changes can trigger county permits or erosion-control requirements. Many HOAs also have rules about visible grading, drainage changes, and the type of material used, so check your HOA covenants and Buncombe County permitting before starting. If your project is near a stream, steep slope, or road, contact the county or your HOA to confirm rules and avoid fines or rework.
Most Hello Gravel supplier arrangements are delivery-only; excavation, spreading, and compaction are typically separate contractor services. Some haulers or local contractors may offer tailgate spreading at the driver’s discretion, but this is not guaranteed and does not replace proper mechanical compaction. We recommend lining up an excavator or compaction contractor if your project requires precise grading and compaction to spec.
Enka’s wetter months and freeze-thaw periods (late fall through early spring) can make sites muddy and slow deliveries or require heavier equipment, which can increase costs and scheduling lead times. For best results and easier compaction, plan bulk fill deliveries in the drier spring through early fall months when ground conditions are firmer. Request a next-day or scheduled delivery date through checkout and ask the supplier about winter surcharges or access limitations for your zip code.
Contractors often recommend crushed stone, gravel, or engineered structural fill for backfill near foundations, under driveways, or where drainage and load-bearing capacity are important because these materials drain better and compact more predictably than ordinary fill dirt. For trenches or footings, washed sand or crushed rock is common to reduce settling and frost heave. If you need a planting surface after raising grade, topsoil or a topsoil blend will be required over the structural fill.
Measure the area (length x width x depth) in feet to estimate cubic yards, then convert to tons using the density given in your Hello Gravel quote or use our online calculator for a more exact figure. Hello Gravel’s checkout lets you enter your Enka zip code, choose delivery dates, and get a transparent quote; contact our team if you need help with measurements or compaction recommendations. Remember the minimum order is 3 tons and that it’s best to order a small buffer to allow for compaction and minor grading adjustments.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
