Why Lucama Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lucama (population 4,540) is part of a growing regional footprint, with nearby development driven by a 2.80% annual growth rate. The area sees a moderate climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rain annually—and sits in hardiness zone 8b, which supports a wide range of landscaping and construction activity. That combination of sun, seasonal rain, and steady growth is driving demand for site preparation and grading work: homeowners are repairing drainage, leveling lots for new landscaping, and preparing pads for sheds and patios. For these projects, quality aggregates matter because poorly sourced material can settle, wash out, or undermine finished surfaces over time.Popular Projects in Lucama This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lucama Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Lucama.
Prices vary by supplier and distance, but in West North Carolina expect fill dirt material to run roughly $10 to $25 per cubic yard. A typical tri-axle truckload (about 10–14 cubic yards) often translates to $100 to $350 for material, plus delivery which can add $100 to $300 depending on haul distance and site access. For an exact price for Lucama, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a local quote.
Most tri-axle dump trucks that serve Lucama carry about 10 to 14 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. Depending on moisture and soil density, that volume generally equals roughly 8 to 15 tons of fill dirt. If you need a precise tonnage for permits or compaction calculations, ask your Hello Gravel quote for the truck type and local density estimate.
Hello Gravel works with multiple local suppliers and haulers that service Lucama and Wilson County; availability and delivery fees depend on your exact zip code and site access. In general, expect standard delivery to be included or modest for nearby loads, while longer hauls or tight access can add $100 to $300. The fastest way to see which local suppliers deliver and the delivery fee is to check your address on Hello Gravel or request a quote.
Big-box stores sometimes offer bulk soil delivery but coverage in rural Lucama is inconsistent and fees can be higher for longer rural hauls. Their per-unit price for bagged or palletized soils is often higher than bulk local fill dirt, and they may not offer full truckloads or same delivery windows as local haulers. For most Lucama homeowners doing larger fills or leveling, local suppliers found through Hello Gravel are usually more flexible and cost-effective.
Cost depends on driveway width and desired depth. For example, a single-car driveway 20 feet long and 10 feet wide (200 sq ft) with a 4-inch compacted gravel surface needs about 2.5 cubic yards of material; at $10–$25/yd3 for fill dirt and $30–$60/yd3 for gravel, material costs alone might run $75 to $200 for fill and $75 to $150 for gravel, plus delivery and any spreading/compaction labor. For a complete, site-specific estimate for Lucama including hauling and optional contractor work, request a Hello Gravel quote and note driveway dimensions and access.
Two inches of gravel is generally too thin for a driveway in Lucama's climate and soils; it may wash away or rut under vehicle loads. We recommend at least 4 inches of compacted gravel for light residential use and 6 inches or more over a properly prepared fill dirt or base for heavier use. Also prepare a stable fill dirt base and consider geotextile fabric or edge restraints for longer-lasting results.
Delivery is often priced per truckload or included with material for nearby hauls; spreading (tailgate or machine grading) is commonly a separate charge. Expect machine grading or site spreading by a contractor to run from about $50 to $250 or more depending on job size, access, and equipment needed; tailgate spreading by a driver may be offered at their discretion and could incur a small fee. Because Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with local haulers, request spreading as an add-on in checkout and confirm the driver's ability upon arrival.
Permits and HOA rules vary: small topping or minor yard leveling in Lucama usually does not require county permits, but larger grading, significant elevation changes, drainage alterations, or work in floodplain areas often do. If you belong to an HOA, check your covenants for driveway or landscape changes before ordering. For county permits, contact Wilson County Planning and Inspections or your local town office to confirm requirements for your specific project.
For very small jobs (under about 0.5 cubic yards), bagged fill dirt is convenient despite a higher per-volume price. For moderate amounts (roughly 0.5 to 3 cubic yards), a pickup or small trailer haul can be economical if you have a vehicle and time. For larger volumes (more than a few cubic yards) bulk delivery through Hello Gravel is usually the most cost-effective and easier option; remember Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, so compare options before ordering.
Measure the area in square feet (length x width) and decide the required depth in feet, then use this formula: (square feet x depth in feet) / 27 = cubic yards. Add 5 to 10 percent for compaction and settlement for leveling jobs, and up to 20 percent when working with loose fills or heavy compaction. If you prefer, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or send your measurements to our team for help with an accurate Lucama-specific estimate.
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.
