Fill Dirt in Bogart, GA

Local prices for screened fill dirt in Bogart usually run in the range of $12 to $28 per ton delivered, depending on supplier availability and material quality. Tailgate spreading is an extra service and is often charged per load or per ton (commonly $25 to $75 per load or $5 to $15 per ton); get an exact quote at checkout or call our team to confirm. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and will show delivery fees or free delivery where available for your zip code.

For driveways on local clay, use clean, low-organic fill dirt (sometimes called select or structural fill) that compacts well and contains minimal roots or topsoil. For the driveway surface itself, place a compacted crushed stone or gravel base (for example 3/4" minus or 3/4" clean stone) over the fill to improve drainage and load-bearing; fill dirt is best used as the bulk structural raise rather than the wearing surface.

One cubic yard covers 324 sq ft at a 1-inch depth. A typical 2-car driveway of about 400 sq ft requires roughly 1.2 cubic yards to raise by 1 inch, which converts to about 1.3 to 1.6 tons of fill dirt depending on the material's moisture and compaction. For practical ordering, round up and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum.

In West Georgia’s humid, wet summers and the occasional freeze-thaw, untreated fill dirt can settle, rut, or retain water if not properly installed. Expect some initial settlement in the first year; minimize problems by compacting in lifts, installing good surface drainage, and capping with a free‑draining stone layer if the area will carry vehicle traffic. Routine checks after heavy rains and adding material to low spots as needed will reduce longer-term maintenance.

Small landscaping deliveries generally do not need a permit, but larger earthwork, changes to drainage, or bringing in many truckloads can require permits or erosion-control measures. Check with the Town of Bogart and Oconee County planning or building departments before large fills, especially if the work affects stormwater, wetlands, or right-of-way. When in doubt, contact our team and we can advise or point you to local permitting contacts.

Fill dirt and crushed stone serve different purposes: fill dirt is best for raising grade or filling voids and compacts to provide support, but it drains poorly. Crushed stone (clean aggregate) is far better for drainage and as a load-bearing base under driveways or pads. In most residential projects in Bogart you’ll use fill dirt to build up the grade and then a compacted stone base on top for durability and drainage.

Hello Gravel’s platform has a 3-ton minimum order, which is common among online suppliers. Local suppliers and haulers in the Bogart area often prefer minimums between 3 and 6 tons and may charge extra for deliveries beyond 20 to 40 miles; tri-axle loads typically carry multiple tons and can lower per-ton pricing on larger orders. Always check your zip code on the site for exact minimums and delivery radius for local suppliers.

Install fill dirt in 4- to 6-inch loose lifts, compact each lift using a plate compactor or roller, and keep the material slightly moist (not saturated) to achieve good density. Avoid using topsoil or organic-rich material for structural fills, consider a geotextile over very soft clays, and finish traffic areas with a compacted stone surface. If you’re not comfortable doing this work, hire a local contractor experienced with Georgia soils to ensure consistent compaction and minimize future settling.

Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, the texture, color, and sand-to-clay ratio of fill dirt in Bogart will reflect local geology—expect heavier clay content compared with sandy coastal areas. This affects compaction and drainage, so mention any project needs or color preferences in your Order Notes and consult our team for material recommendations tailored to Bogart’s soils.

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.
