Why Indian Beach Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Indian Beach has a population of 1,400 and sits within a metro area of 2.3+ million residents, a region growing at about 2.80% annually. That steady growth and local development drive demand for small-scale residential projects—from yard regrading to new patios and driveway repairs. Indian Beach averages 34.00 inches of rain per year and about 228 sunny days annually in hardiness zone 8b, which means homeowners face both wet periods that test drainage and dry stretches that affect settling and compaction. Those climate and growth factors make consistent, low-organic aggregates a common need for reliable grading, drainage fixes, and base material for hardscapes. Fill dirt is subsoil with minimal organic material used for raising low spots, backfilling foundations, and creating a stable base beneath driveways, patios, and landscape terraces. In a place with 34.00 inches annual rainfall and varied seasonal moisture, properly sourced and compacted fill dirt reduces settling and erosion risk while improving drainage. Hello Gravel connects Indian Beach homeowners with local suppliers and haulers to provide regionally sourced fill dirt, transparent pricing, and scheduled dump-truck delivery. Orders start at 3 tons, standard delivery requires 2+ business days, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST, and tailgate spreading may be offered at the driver’s discretion.Popular Projects in Indian Beach This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Indian Beach Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Indian Beach.
Typical delivered prices for fill dirt in Indian Beach generally fall in the range of $10 to $25 per ton, depending on haul distance, site access, and material quality. Prices toward the higher end reflect long truck runs, difficult drop locations, or engineered/clean fill. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum; request a zip-based quote for an exact delivered price.
Hello Gravel works with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve Indian Beach and Carteret County. Delivery fees depend on mileage from the supplier, truck type, driveway or drop location access, and whether spreading is requested; some areas offer free delivery depending on negotiated local rates. Check your zip code on our site or contact our team for supplier options and an itemized delivery fee.
For raising grade or backfilling on coastal lots, choose low-organic 'clean' fill dirt or engineered fill that compacts well and contains minimal topsoil or debris. Pure fill dirt alone is not an ideal driveway surface; after placing compactable fill you should add a compacted crushed-stone base and surface material for load-bearing and drainage. Ask suppliers for a description (subsoil, screened, or engineered) and any compaction recommendations.
Use this formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.2 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt. Example for 1,000 sq ft: 4" = ~12.3 yd3 or ~15 tons; 6" = ~18.5 yd3 or ~22 tons; 12" = ~37.0 yd3 or ~44 tons. Always order 5-10% extra to allow for settlement and compaction, and get a site-specific estimate from Hello Gravel.
On exposed coastal lots, loose fill dirt can erode, wash away, or slump during heavy rain and storms, especially on slopes or where vegetation is absent. Indian Beach properties often face high water tables and storm runoff, so use erosion control (silt fence, straw wattles, vegetation), proper swales, and riprap or geotextile where needed. For critical grades consider engineered fill and professional drainage design to reduce washout risk.
Place fill dirt in 4-6 inch lifts and compact each lift thoroughly with a plate compactor or roller to reach the required density; avoid placing overly wet or frozen material. Control moisture during compaction—slightly damp is ideal—and allow time for settlement before final grading or building. For load-bearing applications or structures, get compaction testing and follow any engineered fill specifications.
Use fill dirt to raise or level the grade and for backfill, but rely on crushed stone (A-Base, 2-3/4" minus, or 3/4" clean stone) for the structural driveway base and surface because it compacts and drains well. Sand can help with leveling in certain drainage mixes but is not a durable driveway base on its own and can wash out in heavy coastal rains. Typical approach: put compacted fill dirt to set grade, then install and compact a crushed-stone base for long-term performance and erosion resistance.
You may need permits depending on the volume of fill and the location on your lot; Indian Beach and Carteret County follow coastal regulations and some activities in order of magnitude require review by the Town, Carteret County, or the NC Division of Coastal Management. Filling wetlands or changing drainage paths may trigger additional permitting from the Army Corps of Engineers or state agencies. Contact Town of Indian Beach Planning and Permitting and the NC Division of Coastal Management before large imports to confirm local rules.
Standard delivery lead time through Hello Gravel is generally 2 or more business days, with a next-day option if ordered before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, and larger volumes may require scheduling farther ahead or special truck types depending on site access. Expect additional lead time for engineered fill or when local suppliers are backlogged during high season or after storms.
Properly placed and compacted fill dirt under a well-designed base can last many years, but some settlement is normal, especially on coastal lots with sandy soils or high water tables. Plan for periodic checks after heavy storms, regrading low spots, and adding material if settlement occurs; using compacted crushed stone over fill greatly reduces maintenance for driveways. For long-term stability near the coast, consider engineered fill and professional grading to minimize future repairs.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
