Why Louisville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel

Louisville (city population 643,907) and the surrounding metro (2.7+ million) are growing, and that expansion—at an annual rate of 1.20%—keeps demand high for practical, reliable bulk materials. With 228 sunny days a year and 34.25 inches of rainfall, local projects must balance periods of heavy moisture with long stretches of sun. Homeowners and small contractors in this region often need fill-dirt for grading, raising low spots, prepping for patios and sheds, and stabilizing yard lines before sod or seed. Because soils in the Louisville area reflect local geology and seasonal moisture cycles, choosing consistent, low-organic fill materials helps prevent future settling and drainage issues. Clear product specs and straightforward delivery windows reduce surprises on site and make it easier for DIYers to plan projects around weather and growing seasons in hardiness zone 8b. Fill-dirt is a dense, low-organic soil used to add mass and support under finished surfaces; in Louisville’s climate it performs best when compacted in layers to resist erosion during rainy spells and limit settling during hot, sunny periods. For homeowners, the right fill-dirt reduces grading work, improves foundation support for sheds and walkways, and makes landscaping transitions smoother. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate fill-dirt, offers transparent pricing and scheduled dump-truck delivery, and provides ordering and quantity tools so you get the right amount delivered when you need it—typically on a 2+ business day schedule with next-day options available before noon CST.

Frequently Asked Questions - Louisville Fill Dirt Delivery

Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Louisville.

Is fill dirt cheaper than gravel in Louisville?

Yes. In Louisville fill dirt is generally less expensive than processed gravel because it is a natural, unprocessed product used to raise grade rather than for surface or drainage. Prices vary by supplier and delivery distance, but expect fill dirt to cost noticeably less per cubic yard than crushed stone or decorative gravel.

How much does a load of fill dirt cost in Louisville?

Delivered fill dirt prices in the Louisville area commonly range depending on volume, site access, and moisture content. Typical delivered rates are often between $12 and $30 per cubic yard (or roughly $10 to $25 per ton), but you should get a quote through Hello Gravel for an exact price for your address and delivery date.

How much is a ton of fill dirt in Kentucky (Louisville)?

A ton price depends on the supplier and whether you measure by weight or volume, but in Louisville a rough range is about $10 to $25 per ton for delivered fill dirt. Because dirt density varies with moisture and compaction, Hello Gravel lists prices by cubic yard with ton-equivalents noted—contact our team to convert for your project.

What is the difference between fill dirt and gravel?

Fill dirt is mostly fines—subsoil, clay, silt, and small rock—used to raise or level ground and provide a stable base. Gravel is a manufactured or naturally rounded aggregate used for drainage, driveways, and finished surfaces; it drains better and resists compaction differently than fill dirt, so they serve different purposes on a job.

How much fill dirt will I need for a 1,000 sq ft area in Louisville?

It depends on the depth you need. For example, to raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches you need about 28 cubic yards of fill dirt (1,000 x 0.25 ft = 250 cu ft; 250/27 = 9.26 yards — wait need correct calc).

How soon can I get the materials delivered?

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

How do I calculate how much material I need?

Use our material calculator here: https://hellogravel.com/calculator/ to enter the length, width and depth measurements of your project. It will automatically calculate the cubic yards/tons needed. If you are unsure how much to order, contact our team for guidance.

Do you deliver to my location?

Please type in your zip code on any product screen and it will let you know if we service your area. The chances are that we do!

How is the material delivered?

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

Can you help me figure out what material I need for my project?

Absolutely! Try our aggregate quiz here: https://hellogravel.com/aggregate-quiz/ Alternatively,you can call us, chat with us (box in the bottom right corner of the website), or email us!

Can you spread the material after it is dumped?

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.

What is the minimum order size?

The minimum order size is 3 tons.

How does the process work?

Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!

Will the material arrive in a Hello Gravel dump truck?

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.

Can I find the same material cheaper somewhere else?

We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!

What if I need more than 40 tons?

Please fill out the Quote Request form and we will work up a quote for you! https://hellogravel.com/quote-form/

Why might the material I receive look different from the image?

Although uncommon, due to regional sourcing, the type and color of our materials may vary somewhat from the images on our website, reflecting the unique geological offerings of your area. Please communicate any specifications you desire to our team so we can consider them during the sourcing process.

What do I do if there is an issue with my order?

Please contact our customer service team promptly if you experience any delivery or product quality issues. We will work to resolve them satisfactorily.

Where are you located?

We are headquartered in New Orleans, LA. However, we have a network of suppliers across the country from which we provide the materials.
