Most residential deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that typically carry about 10 to 16 cubic yards of material, which for fill dirt translates to roughly 12 to 20 tons depending on moisture and soil density. Smaller single-axle trucks hold less, and larger jobs may use multiple trucks. We’ll tell you the expected truck size when you order so you can plan where the truck will dump.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 324 square feet at 1 inch depth, 162 sq ft at 2 inches, and 54 sq ft at 6 inches. Fill dirt weighs roughly 1.1 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard depending on moisture, so 1 ton is about 0.7 to 0.9 cubic yards. Use these approximations to estimate needs, and order a little extra to allow for compaction and grading.

Fill dirt is generally cheaper than decorative gravel or crushed stone when measured by price per cubic yard or ton in West Georgia, but they serve different purposes. Fill dirt is good for raising grade and backfilling, while crushed stone or gravel is better for driveway bases and finished surfaces because it drains and compacts differently. For a lasting driveway we usually recommend a proper gravel base rather than fill dirt alone.

The most cost-effective approach is to order at least the 3-ton minimum or more to lower per-ton cost, choose standard delivery (2+ business days) to avoid rush fees, and group deliveries to a single site when possible. Provide clear drop location notes at checkout to avoid extra offloading time or re-dumps. Contact our sales team with your zip code for volume discounts and the best local supplier options.

Yes, fill dirt is commonly used to raise and level yards in Riverdale, but it needs proper spreading and compaction to avoid future settling. Hello Gravel can deliver the material to your property, and drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but we do not guarantee spreading or compaction services. For reliable compaction, hire a contractor or rent a compactor after delivery.

Some local suppliers offer shale, crusher fines, or borrow pit material as lower-cost alternatives to standard fill dirt. Shale and similar materials can be cheaper but may break down, create dust, or not compact uniformly; crushed stone is usually a better choice for a stable driveway base. Ask our team about available materials in Riverdale so we can recommend the right material for your project and budget.

Suppliers in our West Georgia network typically deliver within a regional service area around Riverdale, but delivery distance and access can affect price. Extra charges may apply for long hauls, lifts over fences, tight access, long offload distances from the truck, or required permits. Enter your address at checkout or contact us so we can confirm delivery availability and any additional fees.

A standard residential delivery includes a contracted dump truck arriving and offloading the ordered fill dirt at a location the driver can safely access on your property. Drivers will not enter structures and will place material at their discretion; tipping fees, permits, or special offloading requests may incur additional charges. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but this is performed only at the driver's discretion and is not guaranteed.

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

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
