Why Harris Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Harris has a city population of 367 and sits inside the West North Carolina metro area of 2.3+ million. The surrounding region is growing at 2.80% annually and enjoys 228 sunny days per year, with 34.00 inches of annual rainfall and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b. That mix of steady growth and moderate climate is driving local construction and landscaping — infill yards, driveway repairs, patio grading, and small additions are increasingly common. Homeowners in Harris pick quality aggregates to control erosion, create stable base layers, and build up grades before installing topsoil or paving. Fill Dirt is a practical choice for raising low spots, backfilling foundations, and creating consistent subgrades that reduce settling on new projects as the metro develops.Popular Projects in Harris This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Harris Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Harris.
Delivered price varies by supplier, haul distance, and order size; in West North Carolina you should expect regional variation. As a rough guide, many homeowners see prices that fall within a broad range, but the best way to know is to get a quote from Hello Gravel for your Harris zip code since volume, access, and source all affect cost.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that service Harris, NC; avaIlability depends on your exact zip code and supplier schedules. Typical minimum orders are about 3 tons, deliveries are made by dump truck, and delivery fees vary by distance and site access; request an online quote to see supplier-specific minimums and any waived delivery fees.
Piedmont and nearby Appalachian soils often include clay and silt that hold water, and Harris sees seasonal heavy rain that can increase settling and drainage issues. That makes pRoperly compacted, well-drained fill essential; use engineered base materials for driveways and plan drainage to avoid puddling and slope failures.
Permitting and HOA rules vary by county and neighborhood; small grading jobs often do not need a permit, but raising grades near pRoperty lines, altering stormwater flow, or building retaining walls commonly require local permits. Check with your county planning office and your HOA covenants before ordering fill dirt to avoid fines or rework.
Place fill in lifts of 4 to 6 inches and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller until you reach the specified density; moisten overly dry material slightly to aid compaction but avoid working overly wet soil. For retaining wall backfill, use free-draining backfill (clean crushed stone or granular fill) or a mix specified by an engineer and include geotextile and drainage pipe where required to reduce hydrostatic pressure and settlement.
Fill dirt density varies, but a common conversion contractors use is about 1.2 tons per cubic yard for typical compactable fill dirt. To estimate: calculate cubic yards as area (sq ft) times depth (ft) divided by 27, then multiply by about 1.2 to get tons (for example, a 1,000 sq ft area at 4 inches deep is about 12.3 yd3, roughly 14.8 tons).
Fill dirt alone is not a durable wearing surface; in Harris’s freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rains it will settle, rut, and erode unless capped with a stable gravel or crushed stone surface. Expect initial settling that requires regrading or topping, routine adding of surface material, and good drainage design to limit erosion and potholes.
Fill dirt is the least expensive and good for raising grade and backfill but is not suitable as a driveway surface; crusher run and recycled concrete form much stronger, better-draining bases and surfaces that resist rutting and erosion. For a long-lasting driveway, contractors typically use fill dirt only where needed for subgrade leveling and then build a base of crusher run or recycled concrete topped with suitable surfacing.
Inspect for organic matter, roots, debris, high clay content, and visible construction waste; organic-rich or debris-laden fill will decompose and settle and clay-heavy fills drain poorly. If you suspect contamination from past industrial use, have a lab test for heavy metals and other contaminants and ask suppliers about the material source before delivery.
Best times are drier months in spring, summer, and early fall when ground conditions allow pRoper compaction and less site disturbance. Avoid scheduling large deliveries during heavy rain or frozen ground; Hello Gravel offers standard 2+ business day scheduling and next-day options where avaIlable, so plan deliveries around dry windows to reduce tracking, mud, and the need for additional rework.
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.
