Fill Dirt in Locust Grove, GA

Prices vary by supply source and truck distance, but in West Georgia fill dirt typically falls in a mid-range price per ton. Hello Gravel lists exact, upfront pricing at checkout for your zip code; use our material calculator or request a quote to see current local rates and delivery fees.

A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10 to 12 tons of fill dirt, so multiply the per-ton price by the number of tons you need. The final truckload cost also depends on delivery distance, site access, and any additional services like tailgate spreading.

Generally yes — fill dirt is usually less expensive than processed gravel because it is less processed and often sourced locally. However, exact pricing depends on local supply, truck haul distance, and material specification, so compare quotes for your project.

Use this quick rule of thumb: 1 cubic yard covers about 81 sq ft at 4 inches deep. Fill dirt weights vary, but 1 ton is roughly 0.7 to 1.0 cubic yards, so one ton will typically cover about 60 to 100 sq ft at a 4-inch depth. For an accurate estimate, enter your dimensions into Hello Gravel's material calculator to account for compaction and local material density.

The most budget-friendly approach is to order in bulk from a local supplier to reduce per-ton haul costs, schedule standard delivery (2+ business days), and avoid expedited next-day service. Clearing a convenient drop zone and ensuring easy truck access can also prevent extra fees for difficult offloads.

Delivery costs depend on distance from the supplier, site accessibility, and load size; many areas see free delivery or low fees through Hello Gravel, but some rural or difficult-access jobs may incur surcharges. You’ll see any delivery charges in checkout once you enter your address; standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.

Hello Gravel displays orders in tons, but our calculator converts between tons and cubic yards so you can plan in whichever unit you prefer. If you specifically need a cubic-yard estimate for a contractor or permit, include that request in Order Notes and we’ll confirm availability with the supplier.

Fill dirt is intended as subgrade material and for raising grade; it is not an engineered structural fill by default. For foundations, retaining walls, or paved driveways in Locust Grove’s clay-prone soils, consult an engineer or use an approved structural fill and compaction specs — your local building department can advise permit and compaction requirements.

Clear a level drop zone with room for a tri-axle truck to enter and back up, mark any overhead wires and underground utilities, and confirm the desired drop location in Order Notes. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but note drivers will only spread at their discretion for safety reasons.

Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, color and texture can vary; if you see contaminants or material clearly not matching your order, contact customer service promptly and we will help resolve the issue. Review our refund and resolution guidance for next steps and keep photos and delivery details handy when you call.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
