Why Richfield Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Richfield (city population 2,680) sits inside a growing regional market—the wider metro area population is 2.3+ million—and is seeing steady development with a growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate supports year-round outdoor work, with 228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and a planting climate in hardiness zone 8b. That mix of sun and periodic rain drives demand for reliable aggregates from homeowners and small contractors tackling grading, yard build-ups, and driveway base work. Homeowners look for quality materials because organic-rich or inconsistent soils can settle, cause drainage problems, and undermine lawns or foundations; well-graded fill dirt provides a predictable, compactable base that reduces rework and long-term maintenance needs.Popular Projects in Richfield This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Richfield Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Richfield.
Delivered fill dirt prices in the West North Carolina area around Richfield typically vary by supplier, haul distance, and site access. Expect a broad range of roughly $15 to $40 per cubic yard (about $12 to $30 per ton) delivered, with lower prices for larger truckloads and higher prices for long hauls or difficult access. For an exact price, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a local quote.
Many suppliers and haulers serving Richfield work with a minimum order around Hello Gravel's minimum of 3 tons, while some quarries or full-truck haulers prefer full loads (10 to 15 tons). Delivery fees depend on distance from the source, road access, and whether a smaller truck is needed for tight drives; Hello Gravel usually shows any delivery fees at checkout or notes when additional charges may apply.
For a structural base, avoid loose organic topsoil: specify clean, well-graded fill dirt with minimal roots and debris. Contractors typically place fill in 4-8 inch lifts and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller, aiming for thorough compaction (contractors often target 90-95% of standard Proctor) to reduce future settling. For final wearing surfaces under driveways, many pros use a compacted granular base or crushed stone on top of compacted fill dirt for better load distribution and drainage.
Richfield's foothill climate with moderate rainfall and occasional freeze-thaw cycles can increase settling and erosion risk if fill is not compacted and graded properly. Sloped sites in and around Richfield need proper drainage, slope stabilization, and erosion controls (swales, silt fence, or vegetation) to prevent washouts. Local contractors routinely emphasize compaction, positive drainage away from structures, and using geotextile fabric or retaining elements on steeper slopes.
10x20 shed base at 4-inch depth contains about 2.5 cubic yards; allow 15-25% extra for compaction and waste, so order about 3 to 3.5 cubic yards (~3.5 to 4.5 tons). A 100-foot driveway at 4-inch depth depends on width; for a common 10-foot-wide single-lane driveway you need about 12.3 cubic yards before waste, so order roughly 14 to 16 cubic yards (~17 to 20 tons) to allow for compaction and slope adjustments. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for precise estimates based on your exact dimensions.
Local contractors in West North Carolina typically remove organic topsoil from the footprint, place clean fill in 4- to 8-inch lifts, and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller to reduce future settlement. They also install proper grading and drainage, add geotextile fabric on soft subgrades, and finish with a durable wearing layer such as crushed stone for driveways. For steep or erosion-prone sites they will add slope breaks, retaining walls, or seeded erosion control to stabilize the fill.
Small residential deliveries of clean fill dirt are often allowed without a permit, but projects that change drainage, alter steep slopes, or involve large volumes may trigger Rowan County permitting or erosion-control requirements. Rules can vary by parcel and neighborhood; we recommend contacting Rowan County Planning and Development or your local town office to confirm permit requirements before ordering large fills or altering grade near streams or steep slopes.
Fill dirt is an inexpensive way to raise grade and fill voids but tends to hold water and compact poorly as a final wearing surface, so it is not ideal alone for driveways or high-traffic areas. Crushed stone or recycled concrete provide far better drainage, load-bearing capacity, and long-term durability as a base or surface. Topsoil is best for planting and landscaping because it contains organics and nutrients, not for structural fill or base layers.
Labor and equipment costs vary by site conditions, access, and crew size; small jobs often include a bobcat or skid-steer and a plate compactor, while larger jobs may require excavators and vibratory rollers. Expect contractor rates and equipment charges to commonly put installation and compaction between $8 and $25 per cubic yard for straightforward residential jobs, with higher costs for tight access, steep sites, or when hauling short or long distances. For an accurate estimate, get local quotes that include haul, spreading, compaction, and disposal of any excavated material.
Yes. Suppliers and haulers serving Richfield may add surcharges for long haul distances, steep or remote access, small-lot deliveries that require smaller trucks, or wet/muddy conditions that complicate dumping. Next-day delivery and requests like tailgate spreading may also carry additional fees; you can see delivery options and any extra charges at checkout or by discussing site details with our team.
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.
