Fill Dirt in Tennille, GA

In Tennille, fill dirt prices vary with supplier, hauling distance, and whether the material is screened. Expect a rough range of about $10 to $30 per cubic yard (roughly $8 to $25 per ton) for basic fill dirt, but local quotes from Hello Gravel will give the most accurate price for your zip code. Minimum orders start at 3 tons through Hello Gravel, and quoted prices may include delivery depending on location.

Coverage depends on depth and how compacted the dirt will be. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of fill dirt is roughly 0.7 to 0.8 cubic yards, so it will cover about 50 to 70 square feet at a 4-inch depth. For deeper fills or grading projects, use the Hello Gravel material calculator or contact our team for a site-specific estimate.

A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 12 to 14 cubic yards of fill dirt (roughly 15 to 20 tons, depending on moisture and compaction). Delivered cost for a single truckload in the Tennille area commonly ranges widely based on distance and site access; expect ballpark delivered prices from a few hundred dollars up to several hundred dollars. For an exact delivered price, get a quote through Hello Gravel with your delivery address and project details.

Generally, plain fill dirt is cheaper than decorative gravel because it is a lower-cost subsoil material and often sourced locally. However, costs depend on local availability, hauling distance, and whether the fill dirt is screened or free of rocks. Choose fill dirt for grading, raising low spots, and below-grade backfill, and gravel for drainage or finished surfaces.

A typical tri-axle dump truck used for Hello Gravel deliveries carries about 12 to 14 cubic yards of material, which translates to roughly 15 to 20 tons of fill dirt depending on moisture and compaction. Smaller single-axle trucks carry less, and larger jobs may require multiple truckloads. We can estimate truck counts for your project if you provide area and depth.

To keep costs down, buy locally sourced fill dirt in bulk, minimize hauling distance, and order the right volume so you avoid partial loads or return trips. Check Hello Gravel for local supplier quotes, compare screened versus raw material (raw is typically cheaper), and consider coordinating a single delivery for several nearby projects to split costs. Avoid paying for trucking and multiple small orders when possible.

Next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST and depends on supplier and truck availability in your area. Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days. During checkout you can request a preferred delivery date and see available options and any additional fees for expedited service.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely on arrival. If spreading is required, consider hiring a local contractor for a guaranteed finish.

Fill dirt is locally sourced and reflects the area's geology and soil types, so color and texture can vary across suppliers and even between loads. In West Georgia you may see more clay or red subsoil depending on the source, which is normal for native fill dirt. If appearance is important, add notes at checkout or ask for screened material when requesting a quote.

We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but changes may be limited once trucks are scheduled. For delivery issues or problems with material, contact customer service promptly and we will work to resolve the situation according to our policies.
