Fill Dirt in East Man, GA

Yes. In East Man, fill dirt is generally cheaper than decorative or crushed gravel because it is unprocessed earth used for raising grade rather than finished aggregate. Prices vary by supplier and delivery distance, so check Hello Gravel quotes for the most accurate local pricing.

Costs vary by supplier, season, and delivery distance, but many Georgia suppliers price fill dirt by the cubic yard or ton. Expect a broad local range; the best way to get an accurate price for East Man is to enter your zip code on Hello Gravel and request a quote from nearby suppliers.

Weight depends on moisture and soil type, but fill dirt commonly weighs about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard when damp. Use 1.3 tons per cubic yard as a practical rule of thumb when estimating loads for East Man projects.

Truck capacity varies by vehicle and local regulations, but local tri-axle dump trucks often deliver roughly 10 to 16 tons of fill dirt, which is about 7 to 12 cubic yards depending on moisture. Hello Gravel coordinates with local haulers and will show the expected truck size and quantity when you request delivery.

At 2 inches depth you need about 6 cubic yards (roughly 8 tons). At 4 inches depth you need about 12.4 cubic yards (roughly 16 tons). Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator for exact amounts based on the depth you plan for your East Man property.

Possibly, but it depends on your truck bed size and payload capacity. A full-size pickup bed might hold close to 1 cubic yard loose, but the weight could exceed the truck's safe payload, so for safety and convenience many East Man homeowners order truck delivery instead of using a pickup.

One cubic yard is a cube about 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft. When dumped it will spread into a lower pile; visualizing a stack about 3 ft high covering roughly 9 by 9 ft is a useful loose estimate for planning in East Man.

Spread fill dirt in thin lifts (4 to 6 inches) and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller for best stability. In East Man’s clay-influenced soils, proper drainage and compaction are especially important—avoid deep single lifts and call Hello Gravel if you need contractor recommendations.

You can put gravel over fill dirt, but only after the fill is properly compacted and graded. If the fill is loose or organic, gravel will settle and shift—install geotextile fabric, compacted base layers, or a crushed stone base to get a long-lasting finish for East Man driveways and paths.

One ton of fill dirt equals about 0.75 to 0.85 cubic yards, so at a 4-inch depth it will cover roughly 60 to 70 square feet. Coverage changes with depth, so use these as practical estimates when planning East Man landscaping work.

Ordering in bulk and having direct delivery is usually the most cost-effective option—Hello Gravel’s online platform connects you with local suppliers to compare per-ton or per-yard pricing. Consolidating materials and scheduling standard (2+ business days) delivery also helps lower costs versus rush or single small loads.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. For small leveling jobs you might need only 3 to 5 tons, but verify the quantity with our calculator and choose a delivery date that fits your schedule in East Man.

Yes. Fill dirt is typically cheaper than topsoil because it is unprocessed subsoil without organic matter and is intended for raising grade rather than plant growth. If you plan to plant, expect to add a layer of topsoil or amend the surface for good gardening results in East Man.
