Fill Dirt in Kingsland, GA

Yes. In Kingsland, fill dirt is generally less expensive than decorative gravel because it is unprocessed soil used to raise grade or backfill, while gravel is crushed stone that costs more to mine and process. Choose fill dirt when you need mass fill or grading rather than a finished surface.

Local prices vary with quality, delivery distance, and supplier, but expect delivered fill dirt in the Kingsland area to commonly range from about $8 to $30 per cubic yard. Get an exact price by entering your zip code at Hello Gravel or requesting a local quote—we show transparent pricing and delivery fees.

A typical tri-axle dump truck in our network carries roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards, depending on local hauler specs. Using the local price range, a single truckload often costs in the low hundreds up to several hundred dollars; final cost depends on yards delivered, travel distance, and any delivery fees, so request a Hello Gravel quote for an exact number.

Calculate needed cubic yards by area and depth: 1 cubic yard covers 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth. For example, 1,000 sq ft at 4 inches depth requires about 12.3 cubic yards; always add 10%–15% for compaction and grading loss and round up when ordering through Hello Gravel.

A full-size pickup bed can sometimes hold close to 1 cubic yard by volume, but weight limits usually make that unsafe for fill dirt because a yard can weigh about 2,000 to 2,800 pounds depending on moisture. Check your truck's payload rating before hauling fill dirt and consider ordering a small dump delivery for safety and accuracy.

One cubic yard is a 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft block (27 cubic feet) and usually appears as coarse to fine brown soil with some clay or sand depending on local deposits. In Kingsland you may see sandy or silty textures due to the coastal plain geology, so color and texture can vary by supplier.

Yes, fill dirt is commonly used to build up low spots and regrade yards, but it should be placed in thin lifts and compacted to avoid future settling. Remove organic topsoil where you need structural fill, check drainage and final grade, and consider topping with 3–6 inches of topsoil before planting grass.

Fill dirt is primarily soil used for raising or stabilizing ground and usually contains fines, clay, and sand. Gravel is crushed stone used for drainage, structural base, or finished surfaces; gravel drains better and resists settling, while fill dirt is cheaper and intended for bulk filling.

Yes, you can place gravel over compacted fill dirt, but proper prep is important: compact the fill, check grade and drainage, and consider a geotextile fabric between soil and gravel to limit migration. If the fill is loose or organic, add a structural base or additional compaction to prevent rutting and sinking.

Buy larger volumes from local suppliers, request matched or shared loads, and compare Hello Gravel quotes from nearby haulers to reduce per-yard delivery costs. Occasionally municipal or site-clearing projects offer free or low-cost clean fill—contact local contractors or Hello Gravel to explore options before you buy.

Coverage depends on weight-to-volume for your soil, but a general rule is that one cubic yard (about 2,000–2,800 lb) covers 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth. If you estimate one ton is roughly 0.75 to 1.4 cubic yards depending on moisture and composition, then one ton will cover roughly 200–324 sq ft at 1 inch; adjust for your desired depth and compaction.

Using the earlier example of 1,000 sq ft at 4 inches requiring about 12.3 cubic yards, multiply by local delivered rates: at $8/yd3 the material would be about $99, and at $30/yd3 about $370, before taxes and any delivery fees.
