Fill Dirt in Leslie, GA

In Leslie and West Georgia, expect delivered fill dirt to fall roughly in the range of $10 to $30 per cubic yard depending on supplier, haul distance, moisture, and compaction. Prices can vary because Leslie is a small town and some loads travel farther from regional pits. For an exact price, check availability for your zip code and request a quote through Hello Gravel; our minimum order is 3 tons.

Suppliers quote both ways, but many homeowners find cubic yards easier to visualize since fill is installed by volume. As a rule of thumb 1 cubic yard of loose fill dirt typically equals about 1.1 to 1.4 tons, so confirm the unit the supplier uses and ask for both numbers on your quote. Hello Gravel lists quantities clearly at checkout and can help convert for you.

No. Fill dirt is subsoil with little organic matter used to raise grade or fill holes, while topsoil is the nutrient-rich surface layer meant for planting. If you plan to grow grass, plants, or a garden, you should put topsoil or a good layer of amended soil over compacted fill dirt.

Generally yes—fill dirt is usually less expensive than decorative gravel or crushed stone because it is a common subsoil product and requires less processing. Costs depend on local availability and delivery; in rural Leslie you may still pay more for haul distance, so get a few quotes to compare.

A standard full-size pickup truck bed will typically hold about 0.5 to 1 cubic yard of loose fill dirt safely, depending on bed size and how high you pile it. Overloading a truck is unsafe and may violate local weight limits, so for larger jobs book a dump truck through Hello Gravel instead of overfilling your truck.

One cubic yard is a 3 foot by 3 foot by 3 foot cube (27 cubic feet). Visually it often looks like a stack about as big as a small washing machine or a large coffee table stacked to three feet high; that helps when estimating how many yards you need.

Yes. For most projects bulk delivered fill dirt is significantly cheaper per cubic yard than bagged product sold at retail stores. Bagged dirt is convenient for very small jobs, but if you need multiple cubic yards in Leslie, bulk delivery through Hello Gravel will usually be more cost effective.

Truck capacity varies by truck type. A tri-axle dump truck commonly used for Hello Gravel deliveries carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill; smaller tandem or single-axle trucks carry less. Exact capacity depends on truck configuration and local weight limits, so ask your supplier which truck will be used for your job.

A full tri-axle load in West Georgia can range widely, commonly between about $200 and $800 delivered, depending on how many cubic yards, haul distance to Leslie, and local supply. Because costs vary, the fastest way to get an accurate price is to enter your zip code on Hello Gravel and request a quote for the exact load size you need.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 108 square feet at a 3-inch depth. Since one ton of fill dirt typically equals roughly 1.1 to 1.4 cubic yards, one ton will cover roughly 120 to 150 square feet at a 3-inch depth depending on moisture and compaction. Use these numbers to estimate how many yards or tons you need for your desired depth.

Buying bulk delivered fill dirt from a local supplier is usually the most economical route, especially if you can order at least the 3-ton minimum Hello Gravel requires. Other cost savers include using existing onsite soil when suitable, scheduling deliveries on weekdays to avoid premium fees, and getting multiple quotes to compare haul distances from West Georgia suppliers.

Yes—fill dirt is commonly used to raise and level areas, fill depressions, and build grade. For successful results in Leslie you should add fill in layers no more than 6 inches and compact each layer; plan to finish with a few inches of topsoil or amended soil where you want grass or plants to grow.

Most plants and lawns struggle in pure fill dirt because it lacks organic matter and nutrients. Grass can be established over compacted fill, but results improve significantly if you cover the fill with 3 to 4 inches of topsoil or incorporate organic amendments before seeding or sodding.

Check access before ordering: Leslie has narrow streets and rural driveways that can limit truck size, so note clearances, overhead wires, and gate codes in Order Notes. Request delivery windows, ask about the truck type, and request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to try spreading (drivers may do this at their discretion but it is not guaranteed).
