Fill-dirt in Elmwood, TN

Prices vary by supplier and truck size, but delivered fill-dirt in West Tennessee typically runs in the range of $12 to $28 per ton (about $15 to $35 per cubic yard). A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10–12 cubic yards, so a full truck delivered to Elmwood often falls in the low-hundreds of dollars. For a firm price for your Elmwood address, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote.

Typical delivered pricing for Elmwood is roughly $12–$28 per ton or $15–$35 per cubic yard, though regional supply can shift those ranges. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; smaller, partial loads under that minimum may be available from some local suppliers but can incur a small-order surcharge. The fastest way to confirm availability for a partial load is to enter your zip code or contact our team for an exact quote.

A pickup bed generally holds about 0.5–1 cubic yard; material-only pick-up prices in the Elmwood area commonly run roughly $15–$35 per cubic yard, so expect to pay about $10–$35 for a single pickup load of material. If you want delivery of a pickup-sized amount, there is usually a delivery fee or minimum; delivered small loads often cost more per cubic yard than bulk truckloads. For exact pickup availability and local supplier drop-off rules, check Hello Gravel or call our team.

Two inches of fill-dirt is only a very light skim and is not generally sufficient as a base for a driveway; most driveways require a 4–6 inch compacted base of good fill or aggregate before a finishing layer. Increasing from 2 inches to 4 inches doubles the volume needed; for a 200 sq ft area (20 ft by 10 ft), 2 inches is about 1.23 cubic yards while 4 inches is about 2.46 cubic yards, so expect roughly double the material cost. Prices for the extra material depend on local rates, so request a quote for exact costs and consider hiring compaction services for a durable driveway.

Assuming a common single-car driveway width of 10 ft and length of 20 ft, area is 200 sq ft: 2 inches of fill is about 1.23 cubic yards, 4 inches is about 2.46 cubic yards, and 6 inches is about 3.69 cubic yards. Using a conversion of roughly 1 cubic yard = 1.2 tons, that is about 1.5, 3.0, and 4.4 tons respectively; with local delivered pricing of about $15–$35 per cubic yard, material plus delivery for 4 inches would typically fall in the range of $35–$90. For an exact delivered price to your Elmwood address, get a quote on Hello Gravel since delivery fees and supplier rates vary.

Buying in bulk (full truckloads) is almost always the lowest cost per cubic yard because delivery is spread across more material, and Hello Gravel often shows the best local bulk rates. Picking up small amounts can save money if you already have a truck and can load material yourself, but small deliveries typically have higher per-yard fees. Check Hello Gravel for local supplier specials and compare a full truckload price versus multiple small loads to find the most economical option for your Elmwood job.

Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading, grading, or compaction services. Those additional services are typically handled by local contractors and pricing varies with job scope; expect machine-assisted grading and compaction to be quoted separately. We recommend requesting spreading at checkout and hiring a local landscaping or dirt-contractor in Elmwood for reliable grading and compaction estimates.

One cubic yard (about 1.2 tons) equals 27 cubic feet. That will cover about 162 sq ft at 2 inches, 81 sq ft at 4 inches, or 54 sq ft at 6 inches. Measure your area and use those coverage numbers to estimate how many cubic yards or tons to order, then add 5–10% extra for compaction and cut/fill adjustments and confirm the final quantity with Hello Gravel.

Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Small jobs under 5 cubic yards often face a small-order surcharge or different pricing and may have more limited delivery windows; full truckloads tend to be easier to schedule and may qualify for free delivery in many areas. For exact fees and available dates in Elmwood, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our sales team.
