Why Walkertown Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Walkertown has a city population of 7,780 and sits within a steadily growing regional landscape, drawing more homeowners and small-scale builders. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, local projects must balance sun and seasonal moisture. That combination drives demand for dependable base materials: grading, foundation backfill, and low-profile landscape builds all rely on consistent, well-graded fill material. Homeowners in Walkertown seek quality aggregates to avoid future settling, ensure stable grades for drainage, and reduce erosion — especially where new construction and yard renovations are increasing with the region's growth.Popular Projects in Walkertown This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Walkertown Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Walkertown.
Fill dirt is inexpensive soil used to raise or level ground; it usually contains little organic material and compacts well. In Walkertown, use fill dirt to build up low spots, adjust grading away from foundations, or raise areas before installing a base material; avoid using it as the finished driving surface because it can rut and erode in our rainy climate.
Prices vary by supplier and exact material, but typical delivered fill dirt in the Walkertown area runs about $10 to $30 per ton. Flat delivery fees often range from $0 to $125 depending on distance, load size, and whether you qualify for free delivery; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and many areas offer free delivery—enter your zip code for exact pricing.
For clay soils, pure fill dirt is not ideal as a surface layer. Use fill dirt only to bring grades to the desired level, then install a well-compacted granular base (crusher run or crushed stone) topped with coarse stone; consider adding a geotextile or coarse sand layer to improve drainage and reduce clay migration.
Fill dirt is fine for adjusting grades and creating positive slopes, but by itself it drains poorly on heavy clay and can settle after rain. For reliable drainage in Walkertown, compact fill dirt in lifts, slope surfaces away from structures, and cap the fill with gravel or a drainage layer to prevent erosion and pooling.
A 20x30 area raised 6 inches equals 300 cubic feet, or about 11.1 cubic yards. Using a common conversion of about 1.2 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt, you would need roughly 13.5 tons; allow 10-20% extra for compaction and settlement and round up to about 16 tons when ordering.
For small sheds, place and compact fill in 4- to 6-inch lifts, using a plate compactor until the material is firm; aim for a density similar to 90% of standard Proctor if testing is done. Also consider a 4- to 6-inch compacted granular base (crushed stone) under the shed floor and check local building codes or the shed manufacturer for specific requirements.
If left as bare fill dirt, performance is poor—expect rutting and erosion after just a few rainy seasons. When capped with crushed stone or crusher run and properly compacted, a residential pad can perform for many years with routine maintenance like periodic regrading, adding 1 to 2 inches of stone every few years, and fixing low spots after heavy rains.
Use each material for its intended role: fill dirt for bulk raising and grading; crusher run (a mix of stone and fines) as a compacted structural base; and crushed stone on top for drainage and a finished surface. For parking pads in Walkertown's climate, a compacted crusher-run base with a crushed stone wearing course is the most durable option.
Yes. Enter your zip code on Hello Gravel to see local suppliers and haulers that carry bulk fill dirt in the Walkertown area. Most suppliers offer delivery; tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion—request it at checkout but note there are no guarantees for spreading services.
Plain fill dirt is not an effective long-term erosion-control cover on slopes because it lacks vegetation and structure. For erosion control in hilly West North Carolina, use engineered fill practices: compact in lifts, add geogrid or terraces, seed with erosion-control vegetation, and install mulch, erosion blankets, or retaining structures as needed.
Yes. Large grading projects, retaining walls, and some foundation or drainage changes can require permits or inspections in Walkertown and Forsyth County. Check with Walkertown town hall or Forsyth County building and zoning before major grading or construction to confirm permit requirements and any setback or stormwater rules.

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.
