Frequently Asked Questions - Pine Castle Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Pine Castle.
Costs vary by supplier, haul distance, and truck size, but in Pine Castle a delivered tri-axle load of basic fill dirt typically ranges from about $200 to $700. Price can change with seasonal demand and moisture content; get an exact quote through Hello Gravel for your zip code and preferred delivery date.
Yes — fill dirt is generally less expensive per cubic yard than gravel because it is unprocessed earth rather than crushed rock. Keep in mind final project cost depends on delivery, spreading, and any required compaction or stabilization work.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet — roughly a 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft pile. In practical terms, one yard covers about 81 sq ft at 4 inches deep or about 162 sq ft at 2 inches deep.
Fill dirt is mostly fine earth and subsoil used to raise or grade ground, while gravel consists of coarse rock pieces used for drainage, driveways, and structural base layers. Use fill dirt for building up low spots, and gravel where strength and drainage are required.
That depends on your driveway width and desired depth. For a 100 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway raised 4 inches, you would need about 12.5 cubic yards of material (1000 sq ft x 0.333 ft = 333 cu ft = 12.3 cu yd). Always add 10-15% for compaction and settling when ordering.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. Coverage examples: about 162 sq ft at 2 inches deep, 81 sq ft at 4 inches deep, and 54 sq ft at 6 inches deep.
Yes for minor grading and filling low spots — fill dirt is appropriate to raise grades and correct slope. However, you should place it in layers and compact each lift, and add several inches of topsoil if you plan to grow grass or plants on the finished surface.
Most full-size pickups can safely carry between about 1/2 and 1 cubic yard of loose material; a single cubic yard may exceed safe load limits for many consumer trucks. For larger amounts, a dump-truck delivery is safer and required by Hello Gravel minimum order policies.
A typical wheelbarrow holds about 2.0 to 2.5 cubic feet, so one cubic yard (27 cu ft) is roughly 11 to 14 wheelbarrow loads. Using wheelbarrows for large jobs is time-consuming; for most Pine Castle projects we recommend truck delivery and mechanical spreading when possible.
Yes — proper compaction reduces future settlement and is especially important in Pine Castle where sandy subsoils and heavy rains can cause movement. Compact fill in 6- to 8-inch lifts using a plate compactor or roller, and consider a contractor for structural or large-volume fills.
You can place gravel over compacted fill dirt, but the dirt must be properly compacted and graded first to prevent rutting and washouts. For best results, install a compacted subbase, consider a geotextile fabric where drainage is poor, and finish with appropriate-sized crushed stone for the surface.
Weight varies with moisture and soil type, but loose fill dirt typically ranges roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard. Because suppliers and trucks often quote by the cubic yard in Pine Castle, use cubic yards for volume planning and ask Hello Gravel for weight-based quotes if needed.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards: (sq ft x depth in feet) / 27. Add about 10-15% extra for compaction and waste, and use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for a site-specific estimate.
Yes — Pine Castle has sandy native soils, a relatively high water table, and seasonal heavy rains, so pay special attention to drainage, erosion control, and compaction. Mention any proximity to structures, pools, or septic systems when ordering so suppliers can recommend the right material and delivery approach.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
