A single tri-axle dump truck load of fill-dirt for the Kimbolton area typically runs from about $150 to $700 delivered, depending on how many cubic yards the truck carries, the per-yard price, and delivery distance. Hello Gravel lists per-yard prices during checkout so you can see both per-yard and per-truck totals for your delivery.

Hello Gravel commonly uses tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards loose, which for fill-dirt typically equals about 12 to 16 tons depending on moisture and compaction. Smaller single-axle trucks hold less, so confirm the truck type on your quote if you need an exact capacity.

Use this quick coverage: 1 cubic yard covers about 162 sq ft at 2 inches, 81 sq ft at 4 inches, and 54 sq ft at 6 inches. These figures assume loose material; compaction will reduce coverage slightly.

Because 1 ton of fill-dirt is roughly 0.75 to 0.85 cubic yards (varies by moisture), expect about 120 to 140 sq ft at 2 inches, 60 to 70 sq ft at 4 inches, and 40 to 50 sq ft at 6 inches. For planning, use the cubic-yard coverage and convert using the density on your specific quote for best accuracy.

Fill-dirt is often cheaper per cubic yard than crushed gravel, but it is not a good substitute for a stable driveway base because it lacks drainage and load-bearing properties. For driveway subgrade or base work in Kimbolton, contractors usually recommend compacted fill plus a layer of crushed stone for durability and drainage even if the dirt itself costs less.

Standard delivery from Hello Gravel is included in many areas, but in small towns extra mileage or truck access fees can add $25 to $150. Tailgate spreading by the driver is available at their discretion and not guaranteed; hiring a local contractor or equipment rental for professional spreading and compaction typically adds $100 to $400 depending on job size and site access.

No, 2 inches of fill-dirt is not sufficient for a residential driveway. Driveways need several inches of properly compacted subgrade (commonly 4 to 8 inches of compacted material) and a separate crushed-stone wearing layer to handle traffic and prevent rutting.

Hello Gravel's platform has a minimum order of 3 tons, and standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. In rural or small communities near Kimbolton, supplier availability can affect lead time, so check availability for your zip code when you order.

Permitting rules vary: small deliveries for yard leveling rarely need permits, but large fills, major grading, or projects that change drainage may require township or county permits and possibly stormwater review. Before large deliveries in Kimbolton, contact your township or Richland County planning/building office to confirm any local permit, setback, or drainage requirements.

Many suppliers around West Ohio can supply blended mixes or provide separate loads of fill-dirt and gravel, but custom mixing usually carries an additional per-yard or blending fee.
