Why Dana Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dana is a small but growing community with a city population of 2,199 within a metro area of 2.3+ million. With a steady growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and local builders are increasingly taking on infill projects, yard regrades, and small construction jobs that need reliable aggregate deliveries. Dana’s climate—about 228/year sunny days and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—means soil movement and drainage matter: frequent sun helps dry placements quickly, while seasonal rains make pRoper grading and compaction essential. For many homeowners, that translates into a demand for consistent, locally sourced materials that prevent settling, control water flow, and provide a stable base for landscaping, patios, and foundations.Popular Projects in Dana This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dana Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Dana.
Delivered fill dirt in Dana, NC typically falls in a range because prices depend on local supply and hauling distance. Expect a combined material-plus-delivery range roughly between $25 and $70 per ton in many West North Carolina locations, though lower or higher quotes are possible. For an exact price for your address and preferred delivery date, get a quote through Hello Gravel (minimum order 3 tons).
Most local dump fleets use tri-axle trucks that usually carry about 10 to 14 tons of fill dirt per load, so a full-truck price will reflect that volume. Per-ton rates typically drop on full-truck orders compared with small loads; Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers so you can compare per-ton and full-truck quotes. Ask for a truckload estimate when you request a quote to see the per-ton savings on larger orders.
West North Carolina freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rainfall can cause settlement, frost heave, and surface erosion if fill dirt is not pRoperly compacted and drained. To reduce problems, place fill in layers (lifts) and compact each lift, plan for surface drainage, and avoid placing untreated fill in wet seasons when possible. For critical areas like building pads or driveways, consider professional compaction testing or engineering guidance.
Use this method: Area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards, then multiply cubic yards by 1.2 to 1.5 to estimate tons (fill dirt weight varies by moisture and composition). Example: raising 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches (0.25 ft) needs about 9.3 cubic yards, roughly 12 to 14 tons. Example: a 2,000 sq ft driveway raised 4 inches (0.333 ft) needs about 24.7 cubic yards, roughly 30 to 37 tons.
Small landscaping fills are often allowed, but significant grade changes, placing large volumes of fill, altering drainage, or filling wetlands can trigger local permits or stormwater rules. Dana homeowners should contact their town or county planning office before delivery to confirm local rules, and check sTate resources for wetlands or riparian protections. If you are unsure, Hello Gravel's team can suggest contacting local permitting offices before you order.
Yes—pRoperly placed and compacted fill dirt is commonly used as structural fill under driveways and pads, but it must be free of organic material and placed in controlled lifts with compaction. For load-bearing areas, incorporate a compacted base (often with crushed stone) and follow any local building or engineering requirements. For garages, foundations, or large structures, consult a soil engineer or contractor to confirm suitability.
Loose fill dirt is susceptible to erosion during heavy rains common in West North Carolina unless stabilized. Prevent erosion with pRoper grading and drainage, temporary erosion controls (silt fence, straw, mulch), immediate topsoiling and seeding or applying gravel cover, and using retaining walls or erosion control matting on slopes. Plan deliveries for drier weather when possible to make stabilization easier.
Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days, with next-day delivery avaIlable for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request spreading at checkout but it is not guaranteed and depends on site conditions and truck access. Hello Gravel will confirm your delivery window and any special instructions after you place your order.
Clear a safe drop zone free of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles, and make sure the truck can access the area; mark your preferred drop location and note any overhead wires. Call 811 for utility locating before work begins, confirm permit requirements with local authorities, and plan for erosion control or compaction if you need the material to perform structurally. Remember Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, so order enough to meet your needs and avoid multiple small deliveries.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
