Fill Dirt in Newborn, GA

Prices in the Newborn, GA area vary by supplier, delivery distance, and whether the dirt is screened. In Georgia, basic fill dirt commonly ranges roughly $10 to $40 per ton, but exact pricing depends on local availability and hauling; Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum. For an accurate, delivered price and available delivery dates, request a quote from Hello Gravel or call our sales team at 855-241-8884.

Yes, fill dirt is typically cheaper per ton than crushed gravel because it is unprocessed and has lower specification requirements. Fill dirt is best for raising grade and backfill, while gravel is chosen for driveways, drainage, and structural base where stability and drainage are required. Choose based on function rather than price alone.

Hello Gravel commonly uses tri-axle dump trucks that carry about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill dirt, which usually translates to roughly 10 to 16 tons depending on moisture and compaction. Delivered cost for a full truckload in Newborn depends on material price, distance, and any special delivery requests; contact Hello Gravel for a delivered quote and available dates (standard delivery is 2+ business days, next-day options may apply with a fee).

Coverage depends on the layer thickness and how compacted or wet the dirt is. A simple approximation using 1 ton ≈ 1 cubic yard puts coverage at about 324 sq ft at 1-inch depth, 108 sq ft at 3-inch depth, and 54 sq ft at 6-inch depth. These are estimates for planning—use our online calculator or ask Hello Gravel for a site-specific estimate because local soil density can change coverage.

To lower cost, order locally (shorter haul distance), buy larger quantities to reduce per-ton rates, accept unscreened fill if suitable, and schedule standard delivery rather than rush service. Compare quotes from suppliers through Hello Gravel to see negotiated rates and check if your zip code qualifies for free delivery. Also consider pickup at a local supplier if you have the hauling capability, but confirm local regulations on borrow pits or private site material.

A typical tri-axle dump truck used for Hello Gravel deliveries to the Newborn area will usually deliver about 10 to 16 tons of fill dirt depending on how dense or wet the material is. Smaller single-axle trucks carry less, and larger tractor-trailers carry more, so always confirm expected weight and volume with Hello Gravel when you place your order. Weight affects whether permits or special routing are needed for certain local roads.

Fill dirt is appropriate for raising grade, backfilling, and under-structure fills but it is not recommended as the finished layer for lawns or planting beds because it typically lacks organic matter and can compact. For lawns and gardens, place 4 to 6 inches (or more for planting beds) of topsoil or a topsoil mix over the fill dirt to support plant growth. If you need both bulk fill and planting-ready soil, ask Hello Gravel about combining deliveries or adding topsoil to your order.

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