Why Laurel Springs Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Laurel Springs has a city population of 5,000 and is part of a growing regional market with a metro area population of 2.3+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.80%. With a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and hardiness zone 8b—local homeowners are steadily taking on grading, drainage, and yard-revamp projects as the area expands. That steady growth drives demand for dependable bulk materials that deliver consistent compaction and long-term stability. Homeowners choose quality aggregates to avoid settlement, control runoff, and create level bases for patios, driveways, and raised garden beds. For DIYers and contractors alike, knowing the right material and quantity matters: using the pRoper fill dirt helps prevent future rework and protects landscaping investments in Laurel Springs’s climate. Fill Dirt is typically natural subsoil with low organic content, ideal for building up low spots, backfilling trenches, and preparing bases for hardscape and structures. In a place that sees 34.00 inches of rain annually, pRoperly compacted fill dirt improves drainage and reduces erosion compared with loose, uncompacted soils. Hello Gravel connects Laurel Springs homeowners with local suppliers and professional dump fleets to deliver regionally sourced fill dirt on a schedule that fits project timelines. We provide clear pricing, delivery options, and material guidance so you get the right fill dirt, the right amount, and a reliable delivery for your job.Popular Projects in Laurel Springs This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laurel Springs Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Laurel Springs.
Prices vary by supplier, distance, and site access, but delivered fill dirt in West North Carolina commonly falls in a broad range depending on local quarries and hauling. Expect to see a range rather than a single rate; call our team or check your zip code on Hello Gravel to get current, location-specific pricing and delivery fees. Keep in mind minimum orders (Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons) and that rural deliveries can have extra charges.
For landscaping and raising grades, standard fill dirt that contains fines and native soil is usually fine as a bulk fill below topsoil. For driveways, choose compactible, clean structural fill or consider crushed stone/crusher-run as the top or base layer—plain fill dirt alone is prone to rutting and poor drainage. Ask suppliers for “structural” or “engineered” fill if you need load-bearing capacity for driveways or pads.
Fill dirt can help raise grades in wet or clay sites, but native fill with a lot of fines may hold water and compact poorly in wet conditions. In areas with heavy rain or clay subsoils, we often recommend combining fill dirt with drainage solutions (gravel layers, french drains) or using granular base material for load-bearing areas. Always assess a test section or consult a local contractor if drainage or long-term stability is a concern.
Estimate the area of your driveway (width x length). For a typical 2-car driveway (about 20 ft wide by 20-24 ft long), raising it 6 inches (0.5 ft) requires roughly 7.5 to 9.0 cubic yards, which converts to about 10 to 12 tons of fill dirt using a common conversion of about 1.3 tons per cubic yard. Use your exact measurements to calculate volume: (square feet x depth in feet) ÷ 27 = cubic yards, then multiply by ~1.3 for tons.
Most aggregate suppliers and haulers connected through Hello Gravel deliver material and may offer limited services like tailgate spreading at the driver’s discretion, but full compaction and installation are typically done by local contractors. Compaction costs vary by method and region; expect contractors to charge hourly or by job for equipment rental (plate compactors, rollers) and labor. Contact our team to request local installer referrals and get estimates for combined delivery plus compaction work.
PRoperly used, fill dirt can help regrade a slope to slow runoff, fill low spots, and prepare for erosion-control measures, but it is not a standalone erosion-control solution. For lasting results on slopes in West North Carolina, combine fill dirt with grading to direct water, install terraces or retaining walls, add erosion-control matting, and use vegetation or rock aprons at outlets. Consider geotextiles and drainage features where water concentrates to prevent wAshouts.
Use fill dirt as bulk structural fill below final grades—it is cost-effective for raising elevations but not suitable as a finished surface for planting or driving. Use crushed stone or crusher-run for driveway bases and building pads where drainage and compaction are critical, and finish with topsoil where you plan to plant lawns or gardens. Often projects need a combination: structural fill for volume, crushed stone for the base, and topsoil on top for landscaping.
Permit and HOA requirements can vary by town, county, and community covenants, so check with your local planning department and HOA before large grading or driveway changes. Small, minor infill jobs often do not require permits, but regrading that changes drainage, affects wetlands, or alters curb cuts or driveways may trigger permit needs. If in doubt, call your county planning office or your HOA board to confirm any rules before ordering large amounts of fill dirt.
Expect some settlement after initial placement—most settling happens in the first 6 to 12 months—so plan to monitor and add material or regrade as needed during that time. For low-traffic driveways with a pRoper base, maintenance like adding a fresh layer of gravel or regrading may be needed every 2 to 5 years depending on rainfall and traffic. Regularly checking drainage and repairing ruts after heavy storms will extend the life of the surface.
Delivery pricing depends on haul distance from the supplier, truck size and route, site access, and any special handling (tight access, steep driveways, or spreading requests). Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons; rural or remote deliveries often carry extra fees to cover longer travel or fewer nearby suppliers. Use our zip-code lookup to see exact pricing and delivery options for your address.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
