Why Vanceboro Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Vanceboro (population 6,170) is a growing community with steady development as the area expands at about 2.80% annually. The town’s moderate climate — roughly 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b — supports a mix of landscaping and light construction projects. That steady growth, combined with generally temperate weather, is driving demand for basic earthwork materials. Homeowners here often need reliable fill for grading, raising low spots, preparing building pads, and creating level bases for patios and sheds. For those projects, consistent, locally sourced materials matter: fill that compacts predictably, sheds water appropriately, and integrates with native soils reduces callbacks and rework on residential jobs.Popular Projects in Vanceboro This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Vanceboro Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Vanceboro.
Fill dirt is usually cheaper per cubic yard than crushed gravel because it is a lower-spec material with fewer processing requirements. In Vanceboro, prices vary by supplier and delivery distance, but you can often expect fill dirt to cost noticeably less than similar-volume gravel. For an exact comparison for your project, request a quote through Hello Gravel since local sourcing and delivery are the main price drivers.
You can buy fill dirt locally from landscape supply yards, construction material suppliers, and contractors around Vanceboro. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers and lets you schedule delivery online, which is often the easiest option for homeowners. Check zip code availability on our site or call the team for help finding nearby suppliers.
Cost for a dump truck load depends on truck size, material amount, and delivery distance. In Eastern North Carolina, a tri-axle truck load of fill dirt commonly carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards (roughly 12 to 16 tons) and prices typically vary—request an on-site quote from Hello Gravel for the most accurate price. Rates can change with fuel, access difficulty, and whether you need spreading or special placement.
To estimate cubic yards, use the formula (area in sq ft x depth in inches) / 324. For 1,000 sq ft that would be about 6.2 cubic yards at a 2-inch depth, about 12.3 cubic yards at 4 inches, and about 18.5 cubic yards at 6 inches. For precise ordering in Vanceboro, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team to account for compaction and settling.
Prices vary by supplier and delivery, but locally delivered fill dirt in the Vanceboro area commonly ranges from around $15 to $45 per cubic yard depending on quality, volume, and hauling distance. That range can shift with seasonal demand and site access needs, so get a quote through Hello Gravel to see current local pricing. Remember minimum orders and truck capacities may affect the per-yard price.
A typical tri-axle dump truck that serves Vanceboro carries about 10 to 14 tons of fill dirt, which is roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards depending on moisture and compaction. Smaller trucks or local site restrictions can change those numbers, so confirm truck type when you order. Hello Gravel shows truck options and approximate loads when you request delivery.
No, plain fill dirt is not suitable as a planting medium because it lacks organic matter and nutrients needed for plants. Garden beds should use topsoil or a mix (commonly around 70% topsoil to 30% compost) rather than fill dirt; if you must use fill dirt for grade work, cap it with several inches of topsoil before planting. For Vanceboro's clay-prone and often wetter soils, adding organic material is especially important for drainage and plant health.
Fill dirt alone is not recommended as a driveway surface because it does not provide a stable, well-draining base and can rut or hold water. For driveways, use structural fill only where specified, compact it properly, and install a crushed-stone base (such as 3/4-inch crushed stone or #57) before any wearing surface. In Vanceboro's climate with seasonal rains, good drainage and compaction are especially important to avoid settling and erosion.
Clear and mark the delivery area, remove low-hanging branches or obstacles, and confirm there is a safe access route for a tri-axle dump truck. Flag the exact drop location and note any property lines or buried utilities; call 811 before digging or placing large amounts of fill. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to consider spreading, but know the driver will assess safety and we cannot guarantee spreading services.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color and texture can vary with regional geology, so delivered fill dirt may not match photos exactly. If the material is significantly different from your order, contact customer service promptly and we will work to resolve the issue in line with our policies. For visual preferences, note them in Order Notes before delivery and request supplier confirmation when possible.
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.
