Why Troy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Troy has a population of 5,860 and is growing steadily at about 2.80% annually. With roughly 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, the local climate combines wet periods with warm, sun-filled stretches typical of hardiness zone 8b. That mix of weather, together with proximity to a metro area of 2.3+ million, drives steady demand for reliable aggregate materials for grading, drainage, and landscaping. Homeowners tackling yard regrades, driveway repairs, or new planting beds need consistent, compactable material to avoid future settling and standing water. Because local soils vary across neighborhoods, Troy residents often prefer sourced fill dirt that arrives in known quantities so contractors and DIYers can plan compaction, drainage, and finish grading without surprises.Popular Projects in Troy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Troy Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Troy.
Delivered fill dirt in Troy commonly falls in a broad range because prices depend on supplier distance, quantity, and season. Expect roughly $8 to $30 per ton delivered as a general estimate, with lower unit prices for larger loads. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and shows transparent, location-specific pricing at checkout — check your zip code or request a quote for an exact number.
For a driveway base, use clean, low-organic fill dirt that compacts well and has minimal clay or topsoil mixed in. That said, crushed stone or crusher-run is still recommended as the structural base layer because it drains better and resists freeze-thaw heaving common in the Piedmont. Use compactable fill dirt only for bulk raising or undercuts, then cap with a granular base for the driving surface.
Calculate volume with: cubic yards = (area in square feet * depth in feet) / 27. For example, raising a 1,000 sq ft yard by 6 inches (0.5 ft) needs about 19 cubic yards (1,000 * 0.5 / 27 = 18.5). Convert to tons using a range of 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt, so plan on roughly 23 to 29 tons for that example; adjust for moisture and compaction.
Plain fill dirt is not ideal for drainage because many local fills contain fine particles that hold water and increase runoff on slopes. For erosion control on sloped sites in West North Carolina, combine engineered fill with drainage measures (swales, riprap, terraces) and erosion-control fabrics or vegetation. Use coarse fill around outlets and place tight compaction and proper grading to reduce erosion risk.
Crushed stone or crusher-run is the better choice for a garage approach because it provides structural support, compaction, and drainage under vehicle loads. Fill dirt can be used to build grade or fill low spots but is poor at shedding water and can rut under traffic. For best results, use fill dirt only to level large depressions and finish with a compacted crushed stone base and surface gravel.
Yes, you should check with the Montgomery County planning and building office before major grading or importing fill for building pads. Local rules can require grading, erosion control, or land-disturbing permits and may include septic setbacks, stream or buffer protections, and soil testing for foundations. Contact the county office early in your planning to confirm what is required for your parcel.
Troy has rainy summers and freeze-thaw cycles that affect material handling and compaction. Avoid heavy wet periods that cause muddy deliveries and poor compaction, and be cautious in winter when frozen ground makes spreading and compaction difficult. Schedule deliveries for drier periods when possible, and allow extra time for scheduling during wet seasons; Hello Gravel offers standard 2+ business day delivery and next-day options when available.
Maintenance depends on use and drainage: a gravel driveway over compacted fill typically needs periodic top-ups and regrading every 1 to 5 years. Small annual upkeep like spot topping can cost $50 to $300, while larger regrades or new surface gravel can run higher depending on quantity. Proper drainage and a good granular base reduce long-term maintenance needs and costs.
Hello Gravel coordinates local suppliers and dump-truck delivery, usually tri-axle trucks, with a 3-ton minimum order. Drivers can sometimes tailgate-spread at their discretion if conditions and access allow, but spreading is not guaranteed; clearly note placement needs at checkout and confirm access (turning radius, overhead obstacles, and where the truck can dump). Use the material calculator and contact our team if you need help estimating quantities or staging for delivery.
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.
