Why Midland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Midland, with a city population of 9,330 and located in a metro area of 2.3+ million, is experiencing steady demand for residential and light commercial projects as the region grows at a rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate—with an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, 228 sunny days per year, and a plant hardiness zone of 8b—creates conditions where grading, yard rebuilding, and drainage work are common. Homeowners and contractors in this environment look for reliable materials to control erosion, level lots, and prepare foundations; that drives steady need for quality aggregates like Fill Dirt that perform well under Midland’s sun, seasonal rains, and local soil types.Popular Projects in Midland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Midland Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Midland.
In Midland, NC, fill dirt typically ranges from about $10 to $25 per ton delivered, depending on supplier, haul distance, and how much screening or processing you need. Small orders near our 3-ton minimum, muddy or wet material, and tighter access (e.g., long driveway or limited dump space) tend to raise the price. Ask for delivered pricing in checkout and note that bundled services (screening, placement) add extra fees.
A quarter-acre raised by 1 foot equals about 10,890 cubic feet, or roughly 403 cubic yards. Because fill dirt weight varies, plan on about 480 to 565 tons assuming 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard; use that range to estimate material and delivery. For small projects remember Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum and factor in compaction and settlement when ordering extra material.
Fill dirt can work as subgrade material but is not recommended as the driving surface on Midland’s clay soils and rolling terrain. Clay holds water and can rut or heave; a properly compacted granular base (crushed stone or gravel) is better for longevity. Use fill dirt to raise or grade the site, then cap with compacted crush/stone and consider geotextile fabric for stability.
Fill dirt with high clay content can hold moisture, shrink, and expand, which increases risk of frost heave in winter and settlement after heavy rain. Proper compaction, good drainage, and avoiding a pure fill-dirt wearing surface reduce problems. For wetter seasons or frost-prone spots, mix granular material or add drainage features to improve performance.
Yes—fill dirt is commonly used to regrade low spots, build shallow swales, and direct surface water away from foundations in Midland. Make sure slopes are gradual away from the house, compact the material in lifts, and cap with topsoil or seed for erosion control. For large changes to site drainage, check local rules and consider a pro to avoid creating downstream issues.
As a subgrade beneath gravel or pavement, a properly compacted fill dirt layer can last for many years or decades if drainage and compaction are done correctly. If used as an exposed driving surface without a granular cap, expect rutting and erosion within 1 to 3 seasons under vehicle traffic. Regular maintenance and adding a proper surface layer extend usable life significantly.
Most county health departments prefer engineered fill or specified sand and gravel for septic mounds because those materials have predictable drainage and compaction properties. Fill dirt (especially clayey or heterogeneous material) is generally not recommended for mound systems unless the local soil report and health department explicitly allow it. Contact the Cabarrus County health department or your septic designer for site-specific requirements.
Permits or notifications may be required for significant grading, earthmoving, or changes to stormwater flow in Midland or Cabarrus County. Small deliveries for backyard top-up often do not trigger permitting, but larger fills, changes to drainage, or work near streams and wetlands may. Check with the Town of Midland planning or Cabarrus County permitting office before major earthwork to avoid fines or required remediation.
Many local suppliers and contractors offer add-on services like screening, placement, and compaction; Hello Gravel partners can arrange these options or connect you with local crews. Screening or soil processing is an extra charge (commonly $5 to $15 per ton), while compaction and placement are usually billed as labor or equipment time—expect small jobs to run several hundred dollars and larger projects $1,000 or more depending on scope. Request bundled pricing at checkout or call our team for a site-specific quote.
Hello Gravel connects you with local aggregate suppliers and haulers serving Midland and nearby Concord, Mount Pleasant, and Charlotte, making it easy to get competitive delivered quotes.

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.
