Why Winston-Salem Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Winston-Salem homeowners (population 250,000) are working in a growing city with a 2.50% annual growth rate and a moderate Piedmont climate that averages 228 sunny days a year and 34.00 inches of rain. That mix of sun, seasonal storms, and rolling terrain creates steady demand for grading, foundation backfill, drainage fixes, and landscape reshaping. For these projects, homeowners need dependable fill dirt that compacts well, resists runoff, and minimizes future settling. Because regional geology and weather influence material performance, local buyers often prefer regionally sourced fill dirt with low organic content and consistent texture—details that help prevent erosion, reduce future rework, and support healthy planting beds. Clear quantity estimates, delivery timing, and supplier transparency make planning easier for both DIYers and contractors.Popular Projects in Winston-Salem This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Winston-Salem Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Winston-Salem.
Pricing for a full dump truck of fill dirt in Winston‑Salem varies by supplier, haul distance, and material grade. A tri‑axle truck typically carries about 10–12 cubic yards, and our site will give a live delivered price when you enter your zip code. For an exact delivered cost, request a quote on Hello Gravel or contact our team at 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734.
Yes — our checkout shows per‑cubic‑yard and per‑truck pricing after you enter your delivery zip code. Per‑truck pricing assumes the local truck capacity (often about 10–12 cubic yards) but exact truck volume and final price depend on the local supplier and route. Use the site calculator or request a written estimate for a firm number.
Drivers may provide tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this service at checkout but it is not guaranteed and fees vary by supplier. For formal grading, compaction, or labor beyond tailgate spreading, we recommend hiring a local contractor — Hello Gravel can help coordinate referrals but does not guarantee worker availability or include heavy grading in the standard delivery price. Delivery fees depend on distance, truck type, and requested services and are shown in your quote.
Fill dirt is generally less expensive than screened topsoil because it contains fewer organics and is intended for bulk raising and structural fill. Gravel is usually used where drainage or a stable base is required and can be more costly per cubic yard. For lawns and planting areas in Winston‑Salem, a common approach is to use fill dirt to build grade and then cap with a few inches of topsoil for planting.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 4 inches you need about 1,000 x (4/12) = 333 cubic feet, which is roughly 12.3 cubic yards, so plan for about 12–13 cubic yards. We recommend ordering an additional 10–20% to account for compaction and grading — so about 14–15 cubic yards in this example. Hello Gravel provides an online materials calculator for quick estimates; on‑site measurement visits are not standard but can sometimes be arranged through local suppliers for an additional fee or referral.
Permits can be required if trucks will block public streets, use city right‑of‑way, or require a lane closure; Forsyth County and the City of Winston‑Salem each have specific rules for hauling and street work. Also check for neighborhood or HOA restrictions, driveway weight limits, and local codes that apply to construction deliveries. We recommend contacting Winston‑Salem Public Works or Forsyth County permitting before scheduling large deliveries and notifying Hello Gravel of any permit requirements when you order.
We commonly source regional grades such as clean fill (minimal organics), screened fill, and compactable fill that is free of debris. For driveway base or structural backfill in North Carolina, contractors usually prefer a clean, compactable fill with limited organic material and proper grading — screened or engineered fill is often best. Always follow the recommendations of your engineer or local code for foundation backfill; Hello Gravel can note specifications in your order so suppliers can match the request where available.
Standard Hello Gravel deliveries do not include compaction work or certified compaction testing. Compaction and testing are specialized services typically provided by contractors or geotechnical firms; we can refer local partners if you need compaction, proof of compaction, or lab testing as part of a construction scope. If compaction services are required, let our sales team know and we will include recommendations in your written estimate.
Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days; next‑day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. During peak landscaping and construction seasons in spring and fall, suppliers and haulers can book up and lead times may be longer, so we recommend scheduling deliveries as early as possible. If you have a firm project date, tell us at booking and we will work to secure a delivery window.
Yes — Hello Gravel provides written estimates and order confirmations via email that show the material, quantity, delivery date, and price. We accept all major credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay through our secure checkout; for contractor invoicing or account terms, contact our sales team to discuss options and set up billing arrangements. If you need a formal quote for bidding, request it through the website or call our team for assistance.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery.

We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
