Why Mooresboro Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mooresboro has a city population of 5,520 and sits in a region seeing steady growth, with a growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate—228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—supports both active landscaping and new construction, which increases demand for reliable bulk materials. As yards are reshaped, driveways expanded, and foundations graded, homeowners need consistent, well-graded aggregates to avoid settling and poor drainage. Fill Dirt is a basic but essential material for those projects: it restores grade, raises low spots, and creates a stable base under lawns, patios, and walkways. Because the metro area population: 2.3+ million supports ongoing development, homeowners and contractors alike prioritize materials that work with local soil and weather patterns rather than one-size-fits-all deliveries.Popular Projects in Mooresboro This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mooresboro Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Mooresboro.
Prices vary by supplier, distance, and truck access, but delivered fill dirt in the West North Carolina foothills commonly falls in a broad range. As a rough estimate expect anywhere from about $10 to $40 per ton delivered, though exact rates depend on your zip code and current local supply. Check Hello Gravel with your Mooresboro zip code for an accurate, up-to-date quote.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that service Mooresboro and Rutherford County rather than selling material from a single quarry. Minimum orders on our platform typically Start at 3 tons, and deliveries are usually made by tri-axle dump trucks; for tight rural driveways suppliers may use smaller trucks at an extra fee. If you have access limits or special placement needs, note them at checkout so we can match an appropriate hauler.
For driveways and approach pads, choose a low-clay, well-graded granular fill that drains and compacts well to reduce rutting and frost heave. For building pads, engineered structural fill compacted in lifts (and often specified by an engineer) is best; avoid high-swell clay near foundations. For general landscaping use screened fill dirt topped with several inches of topsoil or loam for planting; local suppliers can advise on regional mixes that reflect West NC soil types.
A simple conversion rule: 1 cubic yard of fill dirt weighs roughly 1.2 tons (typical range 1.0–1.5 tons depending on moisture and material). Example: to raise a 12 ft x 20 ft driveway by 6 inches you need 12 x 20 x 0.5 ft = 120 cubic feet = 4.44 cubic yards, which is about 5 to 6 tons. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator and add 5%–15% extra for settlement and compaction when ordering.
Permit needs depend on the project scope and location. Small landscaping fills usually don’t require a county permit, but building pads, driveway approaches that change drainage, fills near streams, or projects that disturb 1 acre or more can trigger Rutherford County or North Carolina permitting and sediment-control rules. Before delivering large volumes, contact Rutherford County Building and Planning and, if work is near water, check NC DEQ regulations; Hello Gravel can also help point you to local resources.
Mooresboro’s foothill climate can amplify settling, erosion, and frost-related movement if fill isn’t placed and compacted pRoperly. Wet or high-clay fill is more prone to consolidation and heave, so deliveries should be scheduled for drier conditions and compacted in thin lifts with pRoper drainage. Incorporate surface drainage, slope grading, and, where needed, geotextile or a granular layer to reduce future settlement and wAshout.
Rates vary by crew size, equipment, and site difficulty; as a ballpark local contractors often quote hourly rates from about $50 to $125 per hour for equipment and labor. Some contractors price spreading and compaction by the ton or job instead, commonly in the range of $10 to $40 per ton depending on access and site prep. Always get multiple local bids and confirm whether price includes grading, compaction to a specified level, and disposal of excess material.
Yes. Keep a vegeTated buffer from streams, use silt fence or straw wattles for erosion control, stabilize disturbed slopes quickly with seed or erosion matting, and avoid stockpiling material in low spots. For work near streams or channel banks, contact Rutherford County and NC DEQ because sTate and local rules may require permits or specific erosion-control measures.
Initial settlement can happen within days to weeks, while long-term consolidation may take months depending on moisture and underlying soils. For most landscaping and driveway lifts, contractors recommend allowing time for compaction and ordering 5%–15% extra material to account for settlement and compaction. For structural pads or significant elevation changes, follow an engineer’s guidance and plan for staged fills and testing.
Many suppliers in the West North Carolina region offer both screened (cleaner, finer) and un-screened fill dirt; crushed or processed fills are less common but avaIlable for specific applications. Hello Gravel’s delivery model commonly requires a minimum order (usually 3 tons) and uses tri-axle dump trucks; rural or difficult-access Mooresboro addresses may incur additional fees or require smaller trucks. Indicate access constraints and desired material type at checkout so we can match the right supplier and give a clear delivery estimate.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
