Fill Dirt in hull, GA

In Hull and West Georgia, delivered fill dirt typically ranges from about $12 to $35 per cubic yard (or roughly $10 to $30 per ton) depending on local supply, distance, and whether the material is compacted or screened. Prices vary by supplier and season, so get a quote through Hello Gravel for an exact price and note our 3-ton minimum.

Fill dirt is mostly subsoil with little to no organic matter, used to raise grade or fill holes; it compacts well but is not suitable as a finished surface. Gravel is crushed stone used for drainage and finished surfaces like driveways; gravel provides load-bearing and water-shedding properties that fill dirt does not.

Coverage depends on depth and soil density. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton is roughly 0.8 cubic yards and will cover about 90 sq ft at 3 inches depth or about 45 sq ft at 6 inches depth; adjust quantities for compaction and uneven areas.

Local trucks commonly used by our suppliers are tri-axle or 10-wheelers and carry about 12–16 cubic yards, which translates to roughly 10–20 tons of fill dirt depending on moisture and density. If you need a precise load size for your job, request truck details when you order.

A full-size pickup bed can physically hold about 1 cubic yard loose, but the weight of fill dirt (often 2,000–2,500 lb per cubic yard) may exceed your truck's payload capacity. Check your truck's rated payload before hauling — for most homeowners, delivery by dump truck is safer and more convenient.

Yes — buying fill dirt in bulk for delivery is almost always cheaper per cubic yard or ton than buying bagged soil, especially for larger projects. Hello Gravel’s minimum order and truck delivery make bulk buying more economical than purchasing many bags.

Fill dirt is generally cheaper than gravel because it is less processed and often sourced as excavated subsoil. However, for projects that require drainage, support, or a finished surface, gravel may be the better long-term value despite a higher upfront cost.

Yes, but prepare the fill dirt first: bring it to the desired grade in compacted lifts (6 inches or less), install a geotextile if needed, and then add a compacted gravel base. Skipping compaction will likely cause settling and uneven surfaces over time.

Estimate volume first (length x width x depth) to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.2 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt to convert to tons. If you prefer, use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team for help with your specific measurements and local soil factors.

Cost for a single truck delivery varies by truck size, distance, and tipping fees; a tri-axle load of fill dirt in the Hull area typically runs from a few hundred dollars up to several hundred dollars.

Yes — West Georgia commonly has red clay and dense subsoils that compact well but can hold moisture and affect drainage. Expect regional variation in color and texture; tell us any preferences in Order Notes and plan for proper grading and drainage in wetter seasons.

Place fill dirt in layers (lifts) no more than 6 inches loose, compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller, and control moisture during compaction. For large or structural fills, consult an engineer — for most yard-level work, compaction and proper grading prevent most settlement issues.
