Fill Dirt in Appling, GA

Delivered prices in Appling, GA typically range rather than being fixed. Expect roughly $25 to $45 per cubic yard delivered (about $20 to $38 per ton using a common conversion of ~1.2 tons per cubic yard), depending on local supplier, distance, and material quality. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and will provide an exact delivered price after checking local suppliers and your zip code.

Cost for a dump truck load depends on truck size and haul distance. A tri-axle truck (commonly used in our network) usually holds about 12 to 16 cubic yards, so expect a delivered truckload in Appling to run roughly $300 to $720 based on $25–$45/yd, plus any additional fees for difficult access or next-day delivery.

Sizes vary by truck type. In Georgia you commonly see single-axle trucks at about 8 to 10 cubic yards and tri-axle trucks at about 12 to 16 cubic yards; using ~1.2 tons per cubic yard, that is roughly 9.6–19.2 tons. Hello Gravel typically routes tri-axle trucks for larger orders, but we will confirm the truck size in your delivery details.

Volume depends on depth: at 2 inches you need about 6.2 cubic yards (≈7.4 tons), at 4 inches about 12.3 cubic yards (≈14.8 tons), and at 6 inches about 18.5 cubic yards (≈22.2 tons). Using a delivered price range of $25–$45 per cubic yard, that equates to roughly $155–$280 for 2 inches, $310–$555 for 4 inches, and $460–$830 for 6 inches. These are estimates—request a precise quote for your Appling address and preferred delivery date.

Buy in bulk to lower per-unit cost (order a full truckload when possible) and schedule delivery for standard (2+ business days) to avoid rush fees. Combine orders with a neighbor for shared delivery, give clear drop location and good access to avoid extra truck fees, and ask Hello Gravel to compare local supplier options to find the best price for your soil needs. For driveways or bases, consider buying the correct engineered base material instead of raw fill dirt to avoid future rework.

Most full-size pickup beds hold about 0.4 to 0.6 cubic yards when loaded to the bed rails, so a full cubic yard will usually not fit safely in a single pickup. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum delivery and coordinates dump-truck deliveries rather than loadouts to pickup trucks, so for one yard you should contact a local supplier for special arrangements. For safety and legal weight limits, avoid overloading a pickup bed.

One cubic yard covers about 162 sq ft at 2 inches depth, 81 sq ft at 4 inches, and 54 sq ft at 6 inches. Because one cubic yard is roughly 1.2 tons, one ton covers about 135 sq ft at 2 inches, 68 sq ft at 4 inches, and 46 sq ft at 6 inches. Use these figures to estimate quantities for leveling low spots or building up grade near Appling, and round up to allow for compaction and settling.

You usually need some site prep before placing fill dirt. Remove organic topsoil, vegetation, and loose debris, test and compact soft spots, and correct drainage issues; in clay-rich West Georgia soils this helps reduce future settlement and water problems. Ask Hello Gravel or your contractor to inspect the site and recommend whether geotextile fabric, compaction, or a granular base is needed before delivery.

Raw fill dirt is inexpensive but not ideal as a final driveway base because it often contains fines and organics and can settle or hold water. For a durable driveway base in Appling you will usually get better long-term value from select fill/engineered fill or a compactable material like dense grade aggregate, crusher run, or road base. If budget is tight, use fill dirt only to raise grade and then cap with proper base material to avoid rework.

Assuming a 10 ft wide driveway (1,000 sq ft), a 4-inch compacted base requires about 12.3 cubic yards. If you used fill dirt for the lift the delivered material cost at $25–$45/yd would be roughly $310–$555, but fill dirt alone is not recommended as the finished base. For a proper crush-and-compact base (crusher run or road base), expect higher material cost per cubic yard but better longevity; total delivered material for the base is similar in volume, so get a Hello Gravel quote and factor in compaction and any contractor labor for a full project cost estimate.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
