Why Summerfield Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Summerfield is a growing community of 15,160 people located within a fast-expanding West North Carolina region. With a metro area of 2.3+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.80%, local homeowners and contractors are frequently tackling grading, yard re-sculpting, and small-scale construction projects. Summerfield’s climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—creates a mix of dry spells and storm runoff that makes proper site preparation essential. That drives steady demand for reliable aggregates: homeowners need quality fill dirt for raising grades, correcting low spots, and prepping building pads so landscaping and foundations perform well over time. Fill dirt is a straightforward, economical material for those needs. In Summerfield’s mix of rainfall and sun, using well-sourced, compactable fill dirt helps reduce ponding, prevent uneven settling, and improve drainage when placed and compacted correctly. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and trusted haulers so you get regionally sourced fill dirt, clear pricing, and scheduled dump-truck delivery. Choose your delivery date online, request tailgate spreading at checkout, and our team will coordinate local delivery to fit your project timeline.Popular Projects in Summerfield This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Summerfield Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Summerfield.
Local prices for fill dirt in the Summerfield area typically range from about $8 to $30 per cubic yard or roughly $10 to $50 per ton, depending on supplier, moisture content, and whether the material is screened or has large stones. Prices vary with local supply and demand, truck distance, and seasonal demand, so get a site-specific quote through Hello Gravel to see exact rates for your zip code.
Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons; many Summerfield deliveries qualify for free standard delivery, but charges can apply based on distance, truck access, and the supplier. Typical local delivery fees in the region run from $0 to about $150 for standard load sizes, though unusual access needs or expedited delivery may cost more—request a delivery quote during checkout for an accurate number.
Loose fill dirt in this region generally weighs about 1.2 to 1.4 short tons per cubic yard; after compaction expect roughly 1.3 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard. As a quick example, a 200 sq ft area at 4 inches deep needs about 2.5 cubic yards (roughly 3 to 4 tons). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact us with your area and depth to get an exact estimate for your Summerfield project.
For grading and structural backfill near homes in Summerfield, screened fill dirt with low organic content is usually best because it compacts more predictably and avoids future settling. For driveways you should place screened fill for bulk elevation, then cap with a structural base like crushed stone for proper drainage and longevity; unscreened fill can be fine for rough fill or landscaping berms but may contain rocks and debris that affect compaction.
The Piedmont around Summerfield often has clay-rich soils that hold moisture and can expand or shrink with wetting and freeze-thaw cycles, which increases the chance of settling or frost heave. To reduce problems use low-organic, well-graded fill, compact in thin lifts, provide good surface drainage, and avoid placing expansive clay directly against foundations or under finished pavement.
Small residential deliveries usually do not require permits, but large imports or grading that alters drainage, disturbs more than a local threshold of acreage, or affects stormwater may trigger permitting or erosion-control rules. Check with the Town of Summerfield planning department or Guilford County permits before moving large volumes, and mention potential regulatory needs when ordering so shipping and scheduling can be coordinated.
Yes. Hello Gravel partners with trusted local suppliers and hauling contractors who service Summerfield and the surrounding West North Carolina area. Enter your zip code on our site or contact our team to get supplier options, delivery availability, and referrals for local installers familiar with Piedmont soils.
Properly placed and compacted fill dirt is a long-term solution for grading but may settle slightly over the first year, especially in areas with clay soils or poor drainage. Plan for initial regrading or added material after settling, keep surface runoff directed away from fills, and top dress with gravel, sod, or erosion control to minimize washouts and reduce maintenance needs.
Fill dirt is the least expensive option for raising grade but has poorer drainage and less structural strength than crushed stone. Crushed stone provides superior compaction and drainage for driveways and bases but costs more; sand drains well but does not compact into a stable base. For driveways in Summerfield consider using fill dirt only to build grade and then a compacted crushed-stone base for the driving surface.
Next-day delivery is available through Hello Gravel for orders placed before noon CST for many areas, though same-day service is limited and depends on local supplier capacity. Most deliveries arrive by dump truck and do not require heavy equipment to offload, but if your access is tight or you need placement beyond the truck's dump range, you may need a skid steer or excavator and should note that in the order notes so the hauler can plan.
Measure the area in square feet and decide how many inches of fill you need, then use the formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to convert to tons for local fill dirt estimates, and round up to allow for compaction and settling; or use Hello Gravel's online calculator or contact our team for a quick site-specific estimate.
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.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
