Why Grandy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Grandy is a growing community of 2,600 residents inside a broader metro area of 2.3+ million, combining suburban lots and semi-rural parcels that are driving steady home improvement and infill work thanks to a 2.80% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rainfall, homeowners here balance outdoor living with practical water management and erosion concerns. That climate mix, plus local soil variability, increases demand for quality aggregates for grading, drainage, foundation backfill, and driveway bases. Homeowners want materials that compact predictably and resist washout so patios, lawns, and retaining walls remain stable through seasonal storms. Because regional geology affects texture and performance, clear specs and consistent delivery matter for avoiding costly rework down the road.Popular Projects in Grandy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Grandy Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Grandy.
Delivery costs vary by supplier, haul distance, and order size, but expect roughly $12 to $35 per ton for fill dirt in the Grandy/West North Carolina area. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and often shows transparent delivery fees in the checkout; get a zip-code quote for exact pricing and any next-day delivery fees.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on moisture and composition. For quick examples: raising 100 sq ft by 3 inches needs about 0.9 cubic yards (roughly 1 to 1.5 tons); a 10 ft by 30 ft driveway with a 6-inch fill requires about 11 cubic yards (13 to 18 tons). Always add about 5-10% extra for compaction and waste when ordering.
For bulk grading and building up low spots choose compactable fill dirt with minimal organics (often called fill dirt or structural fill). Avoid topsoil or “clean” top dressing for structural fills—use screened, clay-free fill if you need good compaction. For driveways specifically, use fill dirt to set grade but finish with a proper aggregate base (crushed stone) for drainage and durability.
Local climate matters: West North Carolina areas can experience heavy rain and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles that increase the risk of settling and erosion. Fill dirt with high clay content can hold water and shrink/swell; sandy or well-draining fills perform better in wet spells. Proper drainage and compaction reduce weather-related problems in Grandy’s climate.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers serving Grandy; availability depends on your zip code. Standard delivery is 2+ business days, next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and our minimum order is 3 tons. Deliveries are by dump truck (typically tri-axle) and tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout.
Contractors in the Grandy area place fill dirt in 6- to 8-inch lifts and compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller, and they adjust moisture to improve compaction. They often use geotextile fabric over soft soils, install positive drainage, and edge the fill to prevent erosion. Proper testing and staged compaction are key to minimizing future settling.
Use fill dirt for general grading and raising ground elevation, but do not use it as the primary material in septic drain fields or drainage trenches. Crushed stone or clean, washed gravel is the correct choice for drainage and septic leach fields because it allows water flow and resists clogging. For structural fills where strength matters, choose engineered or compactable clean fill and follow local code requirements.
Yes. Avoid major deliveries and compaction during very wet periods—heavy rain increases the chance of poor compaction and rutting. Late spring through fall when soils are drier is usually best, but take local weather forecasts into account. If delivery is unavoidable in wet weather, plan for extra drying time and re-compaction.
Fill dirt used for grading generally needs occasional top-up and regrading as settling occurs, especially in the first year after placement. If fill supports a driveway, plan on maintaining the surface aggregate (adding and leveling gravel) every few years unless a paved surface is installed. Proper initial compaction and drainage reduce long-term maintenance needs.
Permit requirements vary by municipality and county; some grading, driveway connections, or changes to stormwater flow may require permits in Grandy or state-regulated areas. Check with your local building or planning department and any HOA before starting large fill or grading projects. Hello Gravel can deliver materials, but we do not issue permits—contact local authorities to confirm rules.
Measure the area (length x width x depth in feet), multiply to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards; multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to estimate tons (varies by moisture). Hello Gravel’s material calculator and sales team can help convert your measurements and recommend ordering 5-10% extra for compaction and waste. For precise contractor-grade projects, consider a site visit or soil test for exact density and compaction needs.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
