Why Holmes County Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Holmes County, with a city population of 19,782, is seeing steady demand for site work as it grows at 0.69% annually. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b, 228 sunny days a year, and 33.69 inches of rain—supports year-round projects but also creates a need for reliable soil management. Homeowners and small contractors frequently level yards, raise low areas, and prepare bases for driveways, patios, and foundations. Quality fill-dirt matters because it provides a compactable, low-organic base that reduces settlement, improves drainage, and supports surface structures, helping avoid rework after wet seasons or heavy storms.Popular Projects in Holmes County This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Holmes County Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Holmes County.
Fill dirt is subsoil material with low organic content used to raise grade, fill low spots, and backfill foundations. In Holmes County it is commonly used for yard grading, building up driveways, creating berms, and leveling lots where sandy topsoil is thin. Because materials are regionally sourced, local fill dirt may be sandier or contain clay depending on nearby borrow sites.
Prices vary by supplier, quality, and delivery distance, but in Holmes County you can generally expect delivered fill dirt to fall in the range of about $10 to $30 per cubic yard. Final cost depends on volume, truck access, and whether the material is screened or engineered. Contact our team for a zip-code-specific quote and remember Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons.
Yes, fill dirt is usually cheaper than topsoil because it contains little to no organic matter and is intended for grading rather than planting. Topsoil is screened and rich in organic material, which raises its price. If you need planting or lawn areas, consider topping fill dirt with 2–4 inches of topsoil.
Use this simple formula: cubic yards needed = square feet of area divided by 324. For example, a 1,000 sq ft yard requires about 3.1 cubic yards to raise it 1 inch. We recommend ordering 5–15% extra to allow for compaction and settling, especially in sandy or clay-prone spots common in the region.
Because density varies, 1 ton of fill dirt is roughly 0.8 to 1.0 cubic yards. One cubic yard covers 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth, so 1 ton will cover roughly 260 to 324 sq ft at a 1-inch depth. For projects where exact coverage matters, measure the area and use the cubic yard formula or contact our team to convert by weight.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10–12 cubic yards, and a single load price (material plus delivery) in Holmes County commonly ranges from roughly $150 to $700 depending on material type, distance, and site access. Hello Gravel provides transparent quotes and a minimum order of 3 tons; larger or repeat loads may lower the per-yard price. Exact pricing varies by supplier and truck availability, so request a local quote for your address.
Local suppliers typically offer several fill-dirt options: screened or clean fill (fines removed), sandy fill, clay-rich fill for berms or compaction, and engineered/compacted fill for structural backfill. Availability depends on regional sourcing and the local borrow pits serving Holmes County. Specify your intended use at checkout so we connect you with the right grade.
Yes, many local suppliers and haulers offer lower per-yard pricing for larger orders or multiple loads. Discounts depend on supplier policies, truck availability, and seasonal demand. Contact Hello Gravel for negotiated local rates and to discuss bulk pricing or scheduled repeat deliveries.
Standard delivery through Hello Gravel is typically 2+ business days with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; delivery cost depends on distance and access. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion and often carries an additional fee ranging roughly $50 to $200 depending on quantity and difficulty. Because spreading is not guaranteed, request the service at checkout and note any site access or slope issues in your order notes.
Ensure truck access (turning radius, weight limits on private roads, and overhead clearance) and note any narrow driveways or soft spots—truck size may be limited on certain county roads. Check for needed permits if you are crossing or working in county right-of-way, and consider drainage so new fill doesn't pond water. Our team can help identify access issues and add delivery notes when you place your order.
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.
