Why Black Creek Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Black Creek is a small but growing community with a city population of 858 and ties to a larger metro area of 2.3+ million. With steady growth of 2.80% annually, homeowners and local builders are seeing more renovation and infill projects that require reliable aggregates. The climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—means yards and job sites face both wet periods and plenty of sun. That mix increases demand for materials that stabilize soil, manage drainage, and create buildable grades. For many homeowners, buying quality fill dirt is an efficient way to level sites, raise low spots to prevent standing water, and prepare beds for patios, sheds, and foundations.Popular Projects in Black Creek This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Black Creek Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Black Creek.
Hello Gravel sources materials locally, so your fill dirt will typically come from nearby pits or borrow sites in the West North Carolina region. Due to regional geology, the material may be sandy, clayey, or a mix; if you need specific soil properties, ask for supplier details or a sample before ordering.
No. Fill dirt is subsoil with low organic matter and is not suitable for planting or vegetable gardens. For planting, use screened topsoil or a mix of topsoil and compost; you can then cap compacted fill dirt with 4-6 inches of topsoil for lawns or beds.
Fill dirt is subsoil removed from below the topsoil layer and is chosen for its compaction qualities, not fertility. Topsoil is the upper, organic-rich layer used for growing plants; if you need planting or lawn establishment, order topsoil instead of fill dirt.
Fill dirt alone is not a suitable structural base for driveways or most building pads because it can shift and hold moisture. For driveways and heavy loads, use compactable engineered base materials like crushed stone or road base under your surface; if fill dirt is used for grading, compact it in lifts and have a geotechnical or contractor verify suitability.
Calculate cubic yards: area (sq ft) x depth (in) / 324 = cubic yards, then convert to tons using about 1.3 tons per cubic yard (varies). Example: to raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches: 1,000 x 3 / 324 = 9.26 cubic yards, which is roughly 12 tons of fill dirt.
Prices vary with local supply and truck distance, so check Hello Gravel for zip-code-based pricing and quotes. Our minimum order is 3 tons; many areas qualify for free standard delivery and you can choose next-day delivery for an extra fee if available.
Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that can place material at the curb or directly on your property if access allows. Before ordering, note driveway width, overhead wires, soft ground, and tight turns in your delivery notes or share photos so the driver can assess whether they can safely dump where you want it.
Hello Gravel generally sources fill dirt as clean subsoil, but regional variations exist and small amounts of organic matter or rock can occur. If you need a certified clean fill (no roots, construction debris, or organics), request that specification when you order and inspect the delivery promptly.
Local rules vary, so check with your town or county building and zoning office before ordering large quantities. Small grading jobs on private yards often don't require permits, but substantial changes to elevation, drainage, or work near wetlands, septic systems, or right-of-way may need approval.
Compaction depends on soil type and moisture: sandy fill compacts differently than clay-rich fill common in parts of West North Carolina. For projects that require structural support, compact in thin lifts with mechanical equipment and confirm compaction with a contractor or soils test to avoid settlement issues.
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.

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.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
