No. Fill-dirt is generally used for grading and raising low spots, not as the wearing surface for driveways. In Thibodaux's humid, often clayey soils and heavy rain, plan for a compacted base of at least 4–6 inches of crushed stone or road base over properly compacted subgrade. If you do use fill-dirt for raising the grade, place it in lifts and compact it before installing driveway base material.

Truckload pricing depends on truck size and material volume. A typical tri-axle dump can carry about 10–12 cubic yards (roughly 12–16 tons for fill-dirt); delivered truckload prices in the Thibodaux area commonly range from roughly $150–$500+ depending on distance, supplier, and order size. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum; request a ZIP-based quote to see exact truckload pricing for your address.

Yes, you can use fill-dirt to raise or level spots, but prepare the existing soil first: remove large organic material, scarify or loosen compacted layers, place fill in 4–6 inch lifts, and compact each lift. For structural fill choose screened, low-organic 'clean' fill-dirt; if you plan to landscape on top, finish with several inches of topsoil for planting. In Thibodaux's wet climate, consider adding sand or improving drainage where water ponds.

Per cubic yard, basic fill-dirt is often less expensive than crushed stone or gravel. However, for driveways and high-traffic areas gravel or road base is the correct material because fill-dirt will rut and wash out. Use fill-dirt to raise grade or fill voids, then install a compacted gravel base for driveability and drainage.

Coverage depends on desired depth and material density. A single ton of fill-dirt will cover roughly 125–148 sq ft at 2" depth, about 83–98 sq ft at 3", and about 62–74 sq ft at 4". These ranges reflect local variation in moisture and soil composition; use our calculator for a ZIP-specific estimate.

Mark the desired drop zone with flags and the street address, clear obstacles like low branches and vehicles, and make sure trucks can safely access the site. If you want spreading, request tailgate spreading at checkout and note that drivers will assess feasibility on arrival; they may decline if it is unsafe. Plan to compact the new material in lifts and protect nearby landscaping and drainage paths from runoff.

For grading and structural fill choose screened, low-organic 'clean' fill-dirt that compacts well. If your project requires planting, add a layer of quality topsoil for the surface. Because regional soils in Thibodaux can be clayey and retain water, tell us your project details so we can recommend the right blend for drainage and compaction.
