Why Weldon Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Weldon is a small but growing community with a population of 1,550, located in a region that averages 228 sunny days per year, receives 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and sits in hardiness zone 8b. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually, local homeowners and contractors are increasingly taking on grading, yard re‑levelling, driveway base work, and foundation backfill as infill and new construction pick up. That rising construction demand makes reliable access to quality fill dirt important: homeowners need material that compacts predictably, supports structures and hardscapes, and helps manage runoff after heavy rain. Clear guidance on quantities, delivery timing, and proper compaction reduces costly rework and keeps small projects on schedule. Fill dirt—typically subsoil with low organic content—is especially practical in Weldon's climate because it minimizes settling and shrink-swell with seasonal moisture changes. Properly placed and compacted fill dirt creates a stable base for driveways, patios, retaining walls, and raised planting beds; topsoil or a planting mix is still recommended where you plan to grow turf or gardens. Hello Gravel connects Weldon homeowners with vetted local suppliers and dump-truck delivery, lets you schedule delivery online, and offers material calculators and expert guidance so you get the right quantity and grade for your project. Request tailgate spreading at checkout; drivers will determine feasibility on arrival.Popular Projects in Weldon This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Weldon Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Weldon.
Fill dirt is subsoil material used to raise or level ground; it usually has less organic matter than topsoil. In Weldon (wet winters and humid summers), use fill dirt to build up grades, fill low spots, or create a base under patios and sheds, but not as a final surface where people walk or plants grow.
A 10x10 area raised 6 inches requires about 1.9 cubic yards of material, which is roughly 2.2 tons of typical fill dirt. We recommend ordering 10-20% extra to allow for compaction and grading, and note Hello Gravel minimums start at 3 tons in many areas.
Prices in the Weldon area commonly fall in the range of about $12 to $30 per ton delivered, depending on cleanliness and local supply. Delivery fees vary; Hello Gravel often offers free delivery in many zip codes, but small orders or long hauls can add $50 to $150; check the checkout quote for exact pricing.
Fill dirt can work in Weldon if you select the right type and prepare it properly. Avoid using high-clay fill without proper grading and drainage because it can hold water; for stable results, use clean, well-graded fill and compact it in layers and add surface drainage.
Yes, local contractors and landscapers in the Weldon/Halifax County area commonly offer hauling and spreading. Labor rates vary: expect roughly $40-$75 per hour per worker for manual spreading, $75-$125 per hour for machine work (skid steer or mini-excavator), or project quotes of $200-$600 for smaller jobs—get written estimates for your site.
Fill dirt is cheaper per ton but is not a good long-term driveway surface because it compacts poorly and can rut or wash out in heavy rain. Crusher run or crushed stone compacts into a stable base and drains better; crusher run prices are higher (often $25-$60 per ton delivered), but it performs far better for driveways in Weldon’s wet climate.
Most single tri-axle deliveries on local streets are routine, but Weldon and Halifax County may have posted bridge or weight limits and narrow residential streets that restrict large trucks. For large loads or unusual routes, check with town public works or mention access concerns to Hello Gravel when ordering so we can confirm the route and advise on permits if needed.
Strip organic topsoil and remove roots or debris, then place fill dirt in 3-6 inch lifts and compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller. Aim for consistent compaction and positive drainage away from structures; for sheds or slabs, a compacted granular base (gravel layer) under the fill is often recommended for added stability.
When properly prepared and compacted with good drainage, fill dirt can remain stable for many years as a raised grade or base. Untreated or poorly drained fill may settle, erode, or soften during freeze–thaw cycles and heavy rain, so good compaction and surface protection (gravel, paving, or vegetation) are important.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers near Weldon, NC; many suppliers have a minimum order of 3 tons. Typical delivery trucks are tri-axle dump trucks carrying roughly 12-16 cubic yards (about 10-14 tons), but smaller transfer trucks and different load sizes may be available—check your quote and delivery notes for exact truck type.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
