Fill dirt is usually less expensive per cubic yard than crushed gravel because it is a common, low-spec material. However, cheaper does not mean better for all uses: crushed gravel or aggregate is typically the right choice for a driveway because it drains and compacts to support traffic, while fill dirt is used for raising grade or backfill. Choose material based on function, not just price.

Use fill dirt when you need to raise grade, build up planting beds, or backfill trench work—its finer particles make it easier to grade and seed. Use crushed gravel or road base when you need structural support, drainage, and compaction for driveways or pads. If you need both (for example, raise a yard then install a driveway), order screened fill dirt for the leveling and crushed rock for the driveway base.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Delivery fees depend on distance and supplier; many areas have free delivery or fixed delivery fees—check your zip code at checkout for exact cost and available dates.

Many local suppliers around New Chapel Hill offer screened or “clean” fill dirt suitable for residential grading and landscaping, but availability depends on local quarries and seasonal supply. Suppliers rarely provide formal lab soil tests as part of a standard delivery; if you need certified soil testing for structural work or permitting, arrange a geotechnical test separately or request guidance from our sales team. We can note product descriptions (screened, low-organic) on your order so you know what to expect.

A quick rule is: cubic yards = (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For example, raising a 1,000 sq ft area by 3 inches needs about 9.3 cubic yards. Suppliers or Hello Gravel can sometimes provide onsite or photo-based estimates for larger jobs—contact our team with property dimensions and photos for a more accurate recommendation.

Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver’s discretion and can be requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. Mechanical spreading and proper compaction are typically separate services provided by local contractors and usually carry an additional fee. If you need spreading or compaction, request it up front so we can coordinate local contractors or note driver limitations on delivery.

Local rules vary: some municipalities, counties, or HOAs have restrictions on raising grade, drainage changes, or importing large amounts of soil. Hello Gravel and our suppliers can provide delivery receipts and weight tickets, but we do not handle permits. Check with New Chapel Hill city hall, your county permitting office, or your HOA before ordering, and contact our team if you need documentation to support a permit application.

Common options in the Texas region include general fill (may contain fines and some organics), screened/clean fill (reduced debris and roots), sandy fill, and compactable clay fill. For foundation backfill and structural fills, compactable, low-organic screened fill is best; for general landscaping or raising lawn grades, screened or common fill is acceptable but you should cap it with topsoil for planting. Local geology affects exact material makeup, so request product descriptions when ordering.

Hello Gravel accepts major credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay through our secure checkout. To change or cancel an order, contact our team as soon as possible; modifications are easiest before the order is processed and dispatched.
