Fill Dirt in Centerville, GA

Prices in Centerville typically vary by supplier and the type of fill dirt, but expect roughly $10 to $30 per ton delivered. Final price depends on local availability, truck access, and any delivery fees; Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and will show exact pricing for your zip code at checkout.

Cost depends on the truck size—most local tri-axle trucks carry about 10 to 14 tons. At $10 to $30 per ton, a full truckload often runs between about $100 and $420 for material, plus any delivery or access fees; contact our team for a firm quote for your address.

Yes, general-purpose fill dirt is usually cheaper than crushed gravel because it is not screened, graded, or quarried. If you need structural base or drainage, gravel can perform better but will typically cost more per ton than basic fill dirt.

Calculate the volume by multiplying area (ft2) by depth (ft) and dividing by 27 to get cubic yards, then convert cubic yards to tons (fill dirt commonly ranges about 1.1 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard). For example, a 10x10 area at 4 inches deep is about 1.23 cubic yards, or roughly 1.5 tons; local soil density can change the final number, so we recommend using our calculator or contacting Hello Gravel for help.

Coverage depends on depth: one ton of fill dirt is roughly 0.7 to 1.0 cubic yards and will cover about 80 to 250 square feet depending on depth (for example, one ton might cover roughly 80–100 sq ft at 1 inch depth or about 10–12 sq ft at 8 inches). These are approximate ranges—use volume calculations for accurate ordering.

Ordering in bulk, choosing locally sourced material, and avoiding specialty screened dirt will lower per-ton cost. With Hello Gravel you can compare local supplier rates, schedule deliveries when trucks are available, and take advantage of free delivery in many areas to reduce overall cost.

Fill dirt is fine for low-risk grading and raising lawns, but it is not recommended as a structural base for patios, driveways, or foundation backfill without compaction and engineering. For load-bearing or drainage-sensitive work, ask a local contractor or specify engineered fill or gravel when ordering through Hello Gravel.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Exact timing depends on supplier and truck availability for your Centerville zip code; you'll see delivery options and dates at checkout.

Clear vehicle access and note any low-hanging wires, gates, or steep approaches in the Order Notes so the driver can plan the drop. If you need spreading, request tailgate spreading at checkout—drivers may do it at their discretion but it is not guaranteed.
