In West Tennessee, delivered fill dirt commonly runs about $15 to $35 per cubic yard (roughly $12 to $28 per ton using a typical conversion). To order the right amount, measure the area, convert depth to feet, calculate cubic yards (area x depth in feet / 27), then add 5-10% for settlement and compaction and round up to meet our 3-ton minimum.

For 1,000 sq ft, 2 inches equals about 6.17 cubic yards (roughly 7.7 tons) and 4 inches equals about 12.35 cubic yards (roughly 15.4 tons). At a typical delivered price of $15 to $35 per cubic yard, expect roughly $90 to $215 for 2 inches and $185 to $430 for 4 inches, plus any delivery or service fees.

Fill dirt is generally cheaper per cubic yard than crushed gravel, but it is not a good wearing surface for driveways. For long-term driveway performance in Antioch, use compacted crushed stone or aggregate as the base and surface material; reserve fill dirt for raising grade or subgrade work rather than the finished driveway surface.

Two inches of any fill material is not sufficient for a driveway. For a stable driveway you should plan on at least 4 to 6 inches of compacted base material (crushed stone or aggregate) and an appropriate surface layer; the exact build-up depends on expected use and soil conditions in Antioch.

Cost-effectiveness depends on project size. For small landscaping jobs buy by the cubic yard or ton, but for larger projects a full truckload (which reduces per-unit hauling costs) is usually cheapest. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; request a truckload quote if you need large quantities to save per-unit cost.

Fill dirt is not recommended for planting beds or as mulch because it usually lacks organic matter and drains poorly. For lawns and planting beds in Antioch, choose screened topsoil, garden soil, or a topsoil blend designed for plants; use fill dirt for structural fills, under slabs, or to raise grade below the planting zone.

Some local suppliers offer small-load deliveries or partial truck options, but they often carry higher per-unit prices and may add a short-load fee. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; if you need less than that we can try to match you with a supplier that accepts small loads, but expect a higher rate and possible delivery surcharge.

You can also call 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734 for help; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, subject to supplier availability.

Additional fees can include delivery/fuel surcharges, short-load fees for small orders, and optional tailgate spreading (charged or performed at driver discretion). Removal or disposal of excavated soil is not included in a fill dirt delivery and may incur separate fees; special access, permits, or street-blocking requirements in Antioch can also add costs.
