Why Taylorsville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Taylorsville is a growing community of 20,350 residents within a larger regional market of 2.3+ million, and its 2.80% annual growth rate is driving steady home improvement and construction activity. With a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—local yards and building sites need materials that handle both wet winters and sun-filled summers. Homeowners and small contractors often need quality aggregates for grading, foundation backfill, drainage improvements, and landscape leveling. That demand makes fill dirt a common request: it is a cost-effective way to raise low spots, support foundations for sheds and patios, and create consistent grades before installing fences, lawns, or paving. Fill dirt works well in Taylorsville because it provides structural bulk without the organic material found in topsoil, which helps reduce settling after heavy rains and repeated freeze–thaw cycles. For projects that face 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, properly compacted fill dirt improves drainage and reduces erosion risk. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate fill dirt, offers transparent pricing, schedules delivery by dump truck with a 3-ton minimum, and provides standard delivery in 2+ business days or a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST. Our team can help you estimate quantities and choose the right type of fill dirt for your site conditions.Popular Projects in Taylorsville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Taylorsville Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Taylorsville.
Prices vary by supplier, screening, and haul distance, but delivered screened fill dirt in Taylorsville typically ranges from about $18 to $45 per ton. Exact pricing depends on your zip code, minimum order size, and whether you need additional services like spreading; get a zip-code quote for an exact price.
A 20 x 30 area raised 6 inches equals about 11.1 cubic yards of material, which is roughly 14 to 15 tons of fill dirt using a typical soil weight. We suggest ordering 5-10% extra to allow for settling and compaction, so plan on about 16 to 17 tons and remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Fill dirt is designed for raising grade and filling low spots, not as a finished driveway base. For a hilly Taylorsville driveway you will usually want a compactable base material such as crusher run or recycled base under a driving surface; fill dirt can be used behind retaining structures or to level but should be capped with a structural base for vehicle traffic.
Fill dirt can be affected by freeze-thaw cycles common in West North Carolina because it tends to hold moisture and can heave or settle when frozen and thawed. Proper compaction, drainage, and topping with a drainage-friendly base will improve performance, but fill dirt alone may require maintenance after winter seasons.
You can order bulk fill dirt through Hello Gravel, which connects you to local suppliers and schedules delivery to Taylorsville; check availability by entering your zip code. Local landscape suppliers, stone yards, and haulers in Alexander County and nearby towns like Hickory and Statesville also sell bulk fill dirt.
For drainage and structural stability, crusher run is generally the better choice for driveways and areas receiving traffic because it compacts well and sheds water. Fill dirt is useful for raising elevations or filling low areas, but it retains water and should be covered with a compactable, well-draining base for long-term stability.
Experienced local contractors can compact fill dirt without geotextile fabric for many projects, especially on stable ground. In West North Carolina's hilly and variable soils, geotextile fabric is often recommended for added separation and long-term stability, particularly over soft subgrade or on slopes.
Fill dirt used as the top driving surface is not ideal and will typically require repairs or regrading within a few years under regular vehicle traffic. If fill dirt is used only as a subfill and properly compacted and covered with a structural base like crusher run or asphalt, the overall system can last many years with routine maintenance.
Typical delivered prices in the Taylorsville area range from about $18 to $45 per ton for screened fill dirt, depending on supplier, screening level, and haul distance. For an exact delivered price enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote so the local supplier and truck costs are included.
Permit needs depend on the scope of your project and local rules: small residential fills often do not require permits, but larger grading, changes to drainage, or work in stream/regulated areas typically do. Check with the Town of Taylorsville and Alexander County planning or building departments before you start, and get erosion control or grading permits if required.
Clear the drop area of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles and mark any underground utilities before delivery. Give the driver clear directions and indicate where you want the material placed; request tailgate spreading at checkout if desired, but note the driver will decide if spreading is safe and feasible on arrival.
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.
