Why Fletcher Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fletcher, with a city population of 17,290 and part of a metro area of 2.3+ million residents, is experiencing steady residential growth at a rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and plant hardiness zone 8b—supports active landscaping and ongoing yard and home projects. That steady growth, combined with moderate precipitation, increases demand for dependable site materials for grading, foundation backfill, and lawn restoration. Homeowners in Fletcher often look for fill materials that compact reliably, resist washout during seasonal rains, and match regional soil characteristics to avoid future settling or erosion. Fill dirt is an economical, low-organic material used to raise grades, fill depressions, and create a stable base for patios and driveways. In Fletcher’s climate—with 34.00 inches of rain annually—properly screened, well-draining fill dirt that is compacted in layers reduces erosion risk and keeps projects on schedule. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate fill dirt, schedules delivery with professional dump trucks, and offers online ordering so you can plan deliveries around weather and contractor timelines. We require 2 business days for standard delivery, and next-day options are available for orders placed before noon CST, making it easier to get the right material on site when you need it.Popular Projects in Fletcher This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fletcher Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Fletcher.
Fill dirt is subsoil used to raise grades or fill low spots; it typically contains little organic material and is not intended for planting. In Fletcher and the West North Carolina foothills, homeowners use fill dirt for lot grading, septic backfill, and to build up driveways before adding a gravel base.
As a ballpark, delivered fill dirt in Fletcher commonly falls in a range of about $10 to $30 per ton depending on source, truck access, and moisture. Prices change with local supply and hauling distance, so check your zip code on Hello Gravel for an exact, up-to-date quote.
Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons; delivery is usually by tri-axle dump truck (typical payload 12 to 18 tons). Many areas offer free standard delivery, but small orders, tight access, or next-day requests can incur extra fees—your checkout quote will show any delivery charges.
For sloped driveways in the Fletcher area, use compactible, well-graded fill with minimal organic material and good coarse fraction to shed water. Avoid high-clay fill alone; pair fill dirt with a compacted crushed-stone base, proper drainage swales, and geotextile where erosion is a concern to reduce washouts during heavy rains.
Fletcher sits in the foothills where clay content, seasonal freeze-thaw and concentrated rain events can influence performance. Choose fill dirt that compacts well, account for local drainage patterns, and plan for erosion control; if you suspect high clay or unstable native soils, consider engineered fill or geotechnical advice.
Measure the area and depth you want to fill (length x width x depth) to get cubic yards (divide cubic feet by 27). Use a conversion factor for fill dirt of roughly 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard depending on moisture and compaction; for example, 10 cubic yards x 1.3 tons/yd3 = about 13 tons. Always add 5-10% for compaction and waste and use Hello Gravel's calculator to get a precise estimate.
Major grading, changes to drainage, septic backfill, or land-disturbing activities may trigger local permits or erosion-control requirements in Henderson County. Check with the Town of Fletcher and Henderson County planning offices before large fills; follow required sediment-control best practices, especially because local rains can mobilize loose fill.
Properly placed and compacted fill dirt used as bulk fill with an engineered gravel base can last many years, but it should not be the wearing surface. Expect periodic maintenance of the gravel driving surface, attention to drainage, and occasional regrading after heavy storms; poor drainage or inadequate compaction will shorten lifespan.
Crushed stone or crusher run is a better choice for driveway subbase and surfaces because it compacts and sheds water; base gravel (AASHTO No. 3 or No. 2) provides structural support and drainage. Topsoil is for planting and should not be used where structural fill is required; choose the material based on whether you need structural support, planting medium, or erosion resistance.
Drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. Prepare the site with clear access, mark the preferred dump area, and ensure overhead lines and steep slopes are clear; for large fills or precise placement, plan for equipment to spread and compact the material after delivery.
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.
