Why Marston Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Marston has a city population of 920 and sits within a fast-growing region with a metro area population of 2.3+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate — about 228 sunny days per year and a hardiness zone of 8b with an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches — supports both established yards and new development. As the community develops, homeowners and contractors increasingly need reliable bulk materials for grading, foundations, and landscaping. Quality fill dirt is often sought because it provides a low-organic, compactable base that minimizes settling, improves drainage control, and delivers consistent support for patios, driveways, and raised beds in Marston's mix of sun and seasonal rain.Popular Projects in Marston This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Marston Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Marston.
Delivered fill dirt in the Marston area commonly ranges based on distance, volume, and supplier avaIlability; expect a ballpark of about $8 to $25 per ton delivered, with smaller orders toward the higher end. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, charges may include a flat delivery fee for long hauls, and the best way to get an exact price is to enter your zip code or request a quote.
For driveways and pads in Marston's clay-prone soils, choose low-organic, screened fill dirt (often called clean fill) and avoid topsoil or high-organic mixes. For structural bases you’ll usually combine screened fill with a granular layer (crushed stone) or use engineered structural fill to improve drainage and load-bearing under freeze-thaw conditions.
Measure the area in feet and the depth you want to raise in inches, then use: cubic yards = (area in ft2 x depth in inches) / 324. Convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by about 1.2 to 1.5 for fill dirt (depending on moisture and compaction); for example, a 20x30 ft area raised 6 inches is ~11 cubic yards, roughly 13 to 17 tons.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers serving Marston and West North Carolina; standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, with next-day avaIlable for orders placed before noon CST subject to an extra fee. Exact suppliers and lead times vary by zip code and seasonal demand, so check avaIlability on our site or contact our team for a tailored quote.
Fill dirt with a high clay content can retain water and be prone to heaving and settling during freeze-thaw cycles and wet summers common in West North Carolina. PRoper grading, compaction in lifts, and adding granular drainage layers or a crushed-stone cap will reduce moisture problems and improve long-term performance.
For raising grade cheaply, fill dirt is economical, but it does not provide the drainage or strength needed for a durable driveway base. Crushed stone or engineered structural fill is recommended under the driveway surface because it compacts well and sheds water, which extends service life in Marston’s climate.
Permit and zoning rules vary by project size and location; small residential top-ups often do not need a permit, but substantial grading, changes to drainage, or importing large volumes can trigger county or town permits. Contact Anson County planning or the Marston town office before ordering and check any HOA rules to confirm requirements.
Contractors in the Marston area usually place fill dirt in 4 to 8 inch lifts and compact each lift with a plate compactor or a walk-behind roller for small jobs, and with a vibratory or tandem roller for larger areas. For structures or driveways they may also perform a compaction test to confirm the fill meets the specified density.
Fill dirt used as general grade or to raise ground will perform fine for yards but can settle over months to years, especially if not compacted or if drainage is poor. Expect occasional regrading or spot additions, and consider topping with topsoil and turf for lawns or replacing the base with crushed stone for high-traffic driveways to reduce long-term maintenance.
Pricing reflects the material cost per ton, hauling distance and truck fees, and any added services like screening, stockpile compaction, or on-site spreading. Compacted or processed fill that meets engineering specs typically costs more, and optional tailgate spreading is assessed case-by-case by drivers; request full quotes to compare loose material versus delivered, compacted options.
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.
