Why Efland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Efland is a growing community with a city population of 4,250 and sits inside a metro area with a population of 2.3+ million that is expanding at a growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate is moderate—about 34.00 inches of rain each year, 228 sunny days, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—which supports steady residential development and outdoor projects. That steady growth and comfortable weather patterns create steady demand for practical earthwork: driveway builds, yard re-grading, raised garden beds, pool pads, and foundation backfill. Homeowners look for fill dirt that compacts well, minimizes settling, and helps manage runoff during heavy rains. Choosing the right fill dirt up front reduces future repairs, keeps grading smooth, and helps landscaping perform through Efland's seasonal wet and dry cycles. Regional sourcing also helps match material to local soil characteristics so work blends with existing ground conditions.Popular Projects in Efland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Efland Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Efland.
Typical delivered prices for unscreened fill dirt in small towns around Efland usually fall in a broad range because of local variables. Expect roughly $25 to $60 per cubic yard (about $12 to $30 per ton) for most orders, though small loads, long hauls, or specialty material can push the cost higher. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and provides upfront pricing at checkout so you can see exact cost for your zip code and delivery options.
Price depends on distance from the supplier to Efland, the size of your order, and truck access at the drop site. Other factors include material type (clean fill vs mixed dirt), seasonal demand, disposal or screening needs, required permits or testing, and any special handling like rock removal or tight access that slows unloading.
Homeowners in Efland typically use fill dirt for raising yard grades, backfilling around foundations and utilities, leveling low spots, and prepping areas for landscaping. For structural bases—like driveways, garage pads, or building pads—contractors often prefer compactable structural fill or crushed stone instead of plain fill dirt; consult a builder or engineer for those applications.
Yes. Efland sits in the Piedmont where heavy rain events and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles can cause saturation, erosion, and some movement in loose fill. Proper placement, compaction, and attention to surface drainage reduce those risks—especially on slopes or where clay-rich soils hold water longer.
Clay-heavy fills common in the Piedmont tend to hold moisture, experience more shrink-swell with wet/dry cycles, and can consolidate slowly, while sandier fills drain and compact more predictably. Best practice is to place fill in thin lifts and mechanically compact each lift; plan on some settlement and order 5% to 10% extra material to allow for compaction and grading.
Possibly. Small top-up loads for routine yard grading often don’t require permits, but any work that changes drainage, affects a septic system, or alters a driveway or slope may need Orange County permits or HOA approval. Check with Orange County planning and your HOA before ordering, and contact Hello Gravel if you need help finding local permitting contacts.
Hello Gravel works with locally sourced suppliers around West North Carolina to provide fill dirt in the Efland area. Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST and depending on local supplier availability, but lead times can range from 2 to 7 business days during busy seasons.
Use this quick guide: a 20' x 20' garage pad at 6" depth is about 8 cubic yards (roughly 10–12 tons); a 2-car driveway 20' x 24' at 6" is about 18 cubic yards (20–25 tons). For quick math, 1,000 sq ft covered to 1" depth equals about 2.78 cubic yards. Always round up 5%–10% for compaction and waste, and use Hello Gravel's calculator for precise estimates.
Confirm truck access and a clear drop zone before delivery, mark utilities and any low-clearance obstacles, and note that tailgate spreading can be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver’s discretion. Schedule deliveries during a dry window if possible, remember the 3-ton minimum with Hello Gravel, and contact our team if you need advice on placement or recommended material for your project.
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.
