Why Biltmore Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Biltmore Lake (city population 700) sits inside a growing West North Carolina metro (population 2.3+ million) that is expanding at a 2.80% annual rate. With 228/year sunny days, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, the area supports active landscaping and steady residential development. That steady growth and comfortable climate mean frequent yard remodels, driveway regrades, and small foundation or retaining projects. Homeowners in this market look for quality aggregates they can trust because reliable fill material helps control grading, reduce future settling, and provide proper base for plantings, patios, and simple structures — all important when local weather swings between wet winters and sunny growing seasons.Popular Projects in Biltmore Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Biltmore Lake Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Biltmore Lake.
Delivered fill dirt in the Biltmore Lake/West North Carolina area commonly runs in the range of $15 to $35 per ton, depending on supplier, haul distance, and site access. Minimum orders and truck type affect pricing; Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and will show local delivered rates when you enter your zip code.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve the Biltmore Lake area, and the checkout will show available delivery and optional tailgate spreading where offered. For spreading, request the service at checkout and confirm with the driver on arrival, or ask Hello Gravel for recommendations for local contractors who provide full site grading.
Fill dirt can be used to raise grades and fill low spots, but it is not a finished driveway surface on its own—use fill dirt to build grade, then install a compacted crushed stone base or asphalt for driveways. Because Biltmore Lake soils include clay that holds moisture, proper compaction, drainage, and a granular surface layer are essential to avoid settling and rutting.
Calculate volume first: area (sq ft) × depth (inches/12) = cubic feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards; one cubic yard of typical compacted fill dirt is roughly 1 to 1.2 tons. For example, raising 1,000 sq ft by 4 inches needs about 12 to 13 cubic yards (roughly 14 to 16 tons). Place fill in 4- to 6-inch lifts and mechanically compact each lift—aim for a firm surface and, for driveways or structural work, target professional compaction levels (about 90-95% relative compaction) or a geotechnical recommendation.
In Biltmore Lake's climate, poorly drained or loose fill can erode under heavy rains and show frost heave during freeze-thaw cycles, especially on slopes. Prevent problems by compacting in lifts, providing positive drainage, using geotextile fabric on steep slopes, and surfacing the area with gravel or vegetation to protect the fill from erosion.
For driveway bases and finishing near grade, screened fill dirt (fewer rocks and debris) compacts more uniformly and is easier to work with; however, screened material usually costs more. For bulk, nonstructural fill or large buried backfill where fines and compaction are less critical, unscreened fill dirt is often acceptable—always avoid organic topsoil as fill behind foundations and follow engineer or local code requirements for structural backfill.
Yes—roadwork and permit-required grading in the Biltmore Lake/Buncombe County area may be subject to Buncombe County and North Carolina DOT standards and local zoning or stormwater rules. Before large fills or road access work, check Buncombe County permitting, and for public roads or driveways that tie into county or state roads, contact NCDOT; Hello Gravel can help connect you with local suppliers and advise you to confirm permit needs.
With a properly prepared and compacted fill base and a durable surface (compacted crushed stone, pavers, or asphalt), a driveway can perform well for many years; gravel driveways typically need periodic topping and regrading every 1 to 3 years depending on use and drainage. Expect initial settlement during the first 1 to 2 years—monitor low spots and add material where needed—and address drainage issues promptly to extend lifespan.
Remove topsoil and organic matter from areas to be filled, clarify whether you need screened vs unscreened material, and add delivery notes about access, gates, and preferred dump location at checkout. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team to estimate quantities, check availability for next-day delivery when needed, and request spreading at checkout while noting the driver will assess feasibility on arrival.
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.
