Why Cleveland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Cleveland has a population of 5,520 and is experiencing steady local development with a 2.80% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, the local climate supports a mix of year-round landscaping projects and periodic construction work. That steady growth and favorable weather translate into ongoing demand for earthmoving, yard regrading, driveway base work, and foundation backfill. Homeowners in Cleveland look for reliable, compactable materials that reduce settlement risk, handle seasonal moisture, and create a stable base for planting or hardscape features—reasons why quality fill dirt is a common purchase for both small residential jobs and larger remodeling projects. Fill dirt in Cleveland typically refers to subsoil with low organic content used to raise grades, fill holes, and provide mass under patios, lawns, and foundations. Given 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, proper compaction and pairing fill dirt with drainage layers or perforated piping helps prevent settling and pooling after storms. In Clevelands sunny, temperate climate, using local fill dirt reduces variability in texture and performance. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and scheduled dump-truck delivery, offers transparent pricing and a material calculator to estimate quantities, and provides standard delivery in 2+ business days with a next-day option available for qualifying orders.Popular Projects in Cleveland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Cleveland Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Cleveland.
Prices vary by supplier, distance from local pits, and moisture content, but delivered fill dirt in the Cleveland, NC area commonly falls in a modest price range. Expect per-ton and per-cubic-yard estimates to fluctuate; the best way to get an accurate number is to request a quote through Hello Gravel so we can show local supplier pricing and any delivery fees for your zip code.
Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and dump truck haulers serving Cleveland and Cleveland County, so you can get transparent quotes without calling multiple companies. You can also check local landscape supply yards, gravel pits, and general contractors, but contacting Hello Gravel is the quickest way to see supplier options and read delivery details.
For hilly, clay-heavy sites around Cleveland, use low-organic, compactable fill (clean fill) with good gradation that strips out roots and vegetation. In many cases contractors blend compactable fill with coarser material or place a crushed stone layer for drainage; also consider engineered fill or a soil test to confirm the best mix for slope stability and compaction.
Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324. For example, raising a 12' × 100' driveway by 2 inches needs about 7.4 cubic yards (roughly 9–10 tons depending on moisture), and building a 10' × 10' pad up 6 inches needs about 1.9 cubic yards (around 2.5–3 tons). Hello Gravel's material calculator can convert your measurements to cubic yards and show delivery options for Cleveland.
Fill dirt is ideal for filling low spots and rough grading but is not a durable surface for vehicle traffic. For driveways and pads use fill dirt only as subgrade, then add a compactable base like crusher run for structure and use #57 stone or another surface stone for drainage and finish. Combining materials gives the best long-term performance on clay slopes common in West North Carolina.
Yes. West North Carolina gets heavy rains in spring and fall which can make sites muddy and delay dump truck access, and occasional cold snaps can affect ground conditions. Standard Hello Gravel delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for qualifying orders placed before noon CST; schedule deliveries for drier windows when possible and let drivers know about restricted access or steep approaches in Cleveland.
Small landscaping fills usually do not require county permits, but larger grading or earthwork can trigger Cleveland County building, grading, or erosion control rules. North Carolina sedimentation and erosion control regulations often apply when you disturb an acre or more; check with Cleveland County Planning & Zoning, your city if applicable, and NCDEQ before large deliveries to confirm permit and silt-fence requirements.
Contractors place fill in 4–8 inch lifts, evenly compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller, and maintain proper moisture to reach good density. On slopes they bench or terrace the fill, use geotextile fabric and retaining walls where needed, and install drainage features to prevent erosion—tailgate spreading by a driver may be offered but is subject to their safety assessment on arrival.
Fill dirt will settle over time, especially if not compacted properly or if it contains organic material, so expect some settling and occasional low spots after installation. For driveways you should build a compacted stone base over the fill to avoid rutting; routine maintenance includes regrading low spots, adding material after heavy rains, and keeping drainage functioning to extend performance.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, and many local suppliers offer better per-ton pricing for larger orders or full-truck loads (often in the 10–25 ton range). Delivery fees depend on supplier proximity and access; Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing for your zip code and can connect you with contractor pricing or repeat-order discounts where available.
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.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
