Why Plymouth Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Homeowners in Plymouth are working in a region closely tied to the West North Carolina growth corridor around Northasheboro, which has a city population of 5,160 and a metro area population of 2.3+ million. That area is expanding at 2.80% annually and features a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and plant hardiness zone 8b—which supports steady residential development and landscaping activity. As yards are regraded, driveways reshaped, and foundation pads prepared, demand for reliable aggregate rises. Many homeowners prioritize materials that compact well and contain low organic content so they can reduce settlement, control erosion during seasonal rains, and lay a stable base for patios, sheds, and planting beds.Popular Projects in Plymouth This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Plymouth Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Plymouth.
Fill dirt is generally a mix of native soils with clay, silt, and some sand and fines; color and texture vary based on local coastal plain geology around Plymouth. It is used to raise grades, level yards, backfill foundations, and fill low spots where structural stability is not critical, often covered with topsoil or gravel for finished surfaces.
Typical delivered prices in the Plymouth area usually range roughly $10 to $20 per ton, depending on supplier, distance, moisture, and seasonal demand. That converts to about $12 to $24 per cubic yard using common soil weight assumptions, but actual cost can vary; check our checkout for a Zip-code specific quote and remember Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons.
Many regional suppliers deliver a minimum that depends on truck size: Hello Gravel lists a 3-ton minimum, while typical tri-axle trucks carry about 10 to 12 tons so many deliveries are whole-truck loads. If you need less than a full truck, smaller loads may be available for an extra fee or from local haulers; use our order tool to see supplier-specific minimums for your zip code.
Fill dirt with significant fines and clay is not ideal for persistently wet areas because it can hold water and settle; in high water table or poorly drained coastal plain soils, granular materials (sand, stone) or engineered fill are usually a better choice. If you must use fill dirt, plan for proper drainage, geotextile separation, and professional compaction to reduce long-term settlement and saturation issues.
To raise a 1/4 acre (about 10,890 sq ft) by 6 inches requires roughly 5,445 cubic feet, or about 202 cubic yards of material. Using a typical conversion of 1.2 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard, expect about 240 to 265 tons of fill dirt, plus a 5-10% allowance for settlement and compaction when ordering.
Local rules vary: small landscape fills are usually allowed, but large volume fills, grading that changes drainage, or work in floodplain/wetland areas may trigger permits from Plymouth, Washington County, or state agencies. Before large deliveries, check with Plymouth city planning or Washington County soil and erosion control, and with N.C. Division of Coastal Management or N.C. DENR if wetlands or floodplains are involved.
For driveways in Plymouth's humid, seasonal climate, use a well-graded granular base (crusher run or a mix of stone and coarse sand) that compacts well and sheds water rather than fine, clay-rich fill dirt. For general landscape fill, a locally sourced fill dirt with some fines is acceptable if you plan to top with topsoil and ensure drainage; avoid heavy clay fills where standing water is likely.
Compacted fill dirt can perform well for backfill and non-structural grading but may settle over months to years, especially after heavy rains common in eastern North Carolina; plan on some settlement and occasional top-up. Good drainage, proper compaction during installation, and surfacing (topsoil, gravel, or pavement) will reduce maintenance and extend longevity.
Contractors estimate by calculating required compacted volume, applying a bulking or swell factor (typically 10-25% depending on material moisture), and adding a waste allowance of 5-10%. Pricing combines material cost per ton, haul distance and truck type, spreading and compaction labor, and any testing or permit costs; use our quote tool for site-specific estimates and tell us about access, drainage, and desired finish to improve accuracy.

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.

After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
