Why Holiday Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Holiday has a population of 31,265 and sits within a metro area of 2.5+ million residents that is growing at a 2.50% annual rate. That steady growth, combined with a warm Gulf Coast climate—228 sunny days per year, hardiness zone 8b, and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches—drives ongoing demand for earthwork, grading, and foundation preparation. Homeowners and contractors in Holiday need reliable base materials to raise low spots, correct grade, and prepare sites for landscaping or building. Fill Dirt is a practical, low-cost material commonly used to rebuild subgrade, fill trenches, and establish proper drainage lines before finishing with topsoil or pavement. In Holiday's sandy, seasonally wet soils, compactable, low-organic fill dirt helps create stable pads for patios, driveways, and garden beds while reducing long-term settling. Because regional geology affects texture and drainage, sourcing locally matched fill dirt reduces risk of future movement and improves compaction performance in this 8b climate. Hello Gravel connects Holiday homeowners with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offers transparent pricing and scheduled dump-truck delivery, and provides material calculators and expert guidance so you get the right fill dirt for your project on the timeline you need.Popular Projects in Holiday This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Holiday Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Holiday.
Prices vary by supplier and season, but delivered fill dirt in Holiday commonly runs in the range of about $15 to $40 per cubic yard. Exact pricing depends on local availability, moisture content, and whether delivery is included—get a quote through Hello Gravel for an accurate, up-to-date price for your zip code.
Cost depends on truck size and per-yard price; a common tri-axle load is about 10 to 12 cubic yards, so multiply the per-yard rate by that amount and add any delivery fees. Many Hello Gravel supplier quotes include free delivery in nearby areas, so request a quote to see the total cost for your address in Holiday.
To raise 1,000 square feet by 2 inches you need about 6.2 cubic yards of fill dirt (1000 * 2/12 / 27 = ~6.17). Always order a small buffer (10% is common) to allow for settling and compaction.
Hello Gravel typically arranges deliveries with tri-axle dump trucks that commonly carry about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. In tonnage that equates to roughly 12 to 15 tons, depending on moisture and soil density.
Yes — fill dirt is generally cheaper than screened topsoil because it contains less organic material and requires less processing. For grading and raising elevations use fill dirt, but finish the top 4 to 6 inches with topsoil if you plan to grow grass, plants, or lay sod.
Most full-size pickup beds cannot hold a full cubic yard of loose fill dirt; a typical pickup usually carries about 0.5 cubic yards depending on load limits. Hello Gravel deliveries are performed by dump trucks (minimum orders and tri-axle loads), so pickup delivery is not the default—ask our team if a supplier near Holiday offers small loads or bagged options.
One cubic yard of fill dirt equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 162 square feet at a 2-inch depth (or 81 square feet at 4 inches). A ton covers slightly less area because soil weight varies, but expect roughly 120 to 140 square feet at 2 inches depending on moisture and compaction.
Delivery fees vary by supplier distance and order size; many orders in and near Holiday include delivery at no extra charge, while remote deliveries may carry a fee. Tailgate spreading is available at the driver's discretion and may incur an additional charge or be declined for safety reasons—request spreading at checkout and our team will note it for the supplier to confirm.
Use fill dirt to build up or correct grades below the root zone, then cap the area with 4 to 6 inches of quality topsoil before laying sod. Topsoil provides the organic matter and nutrients grass needs, while fill dirt is best for bulk elevation work and structural fill.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. A typical 40-lb bag varies in volume, but if a bag holds about 0.25 to 0.5 cubic feet you would need roughly 54 to 108 bags to equal a cubic yard. For projects larger than a few square feet, bulk fill dirt (or bulk topsoil) ordered by the yard is almost always more economical in Holiday than buying many bags.
That depends on the wheelbarrow size: 1 cubic yard (27 cubic feet) is roughly 4 to 9 wheelbarrow loads — larger contractor wheelbarrows are near 6 cubic feet (about 4.5 loads), while smaller domestic wheelbarrows hold closer to 3 cubic feet (about 9 loads). Factor this when planning manual handling or labor needs for a Holiday project.
You would need about 6.2 cubic yards for 1,000 sq ft at 2 inches. Multiply that quantity by current local per-yard prices to compare: for example, at $20/yd fill dirt the material cost is about $124; at $45/yd gravel the material cost is about $279. Ask Hello Gravel for exact local pricing and delivery options for your Holiday address so you can compare total costs.
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.
