Fill-dirt is usually higher in fines and can hold moisture, so on Fayetteville's clayey Ozark soils it may drain slowly and be prone to settling and erosion if not profiled and compacted correctly. For good long-term performance, pair fill-dirt with proper compaction, positive drainage (swales or French drains), and a granular base where traffic or structures are present. Expect wetter months to slow compaction work and protect fresh fills from heavy rains to limit erosion.

For structural fills under foundations and building pads, local engineers and inspectors commonly reference compaction to about 95% of standard Proctor; driveway subgrades are often specified at 90-95% depending on the project. A geotechnical report and field compaction tests (nuclear or sand cone) signed by the testing firm are usually required for permits; check with the Fayetteville Building Inspection office or your project engineer for the exact spec for your permit.

Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For 50 x 100 ft at 6 inches: 5,000 x 6 / 324 = about 92.6 cubic yards. Fill-dirt typically weighs about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard when compacted, so plan on roughly 100 to 120 tons and add 5-10% for settlement and compaction loss.

Crusher run or compactable crushed stone is a better choice for steep or sloped driveways because the angular stone locks together, sheds water more effectively, and resists rutting and erosion. Fill-dirt can be used to raise grades or fill voids but performs poorly as a finished driving surface on slopes. For sloped driveways, use engineered base layers, drainage measures, and a crushed surface for long-term stability.

Typical constraints include narrow or tree-lined residential streets, low overhead wires, gates and fences, steep or soft driveways that trucks cannot safely enter, and turning restrictions near the University of Arkansas and downtown Fayetteville. Hello Gravel uses tri-axle dump trucks for most loads; provide photos, gate codes, and clear instructions at checkout and the dispatcher will confirm if tailgate spreading is possible, but final decisions are at the driver's discretion.

If the driving surface is plain fill-dirt, expect frequent grading and poor longevity—seasonal ruts and erosion are common. A properly built driveway with compacted subgrade, crusher-run base, and a gravel top can last decades with routine care: regrading after heavy rains, adding fresh stone every 3-7 years, and spot repairs as needed. Good drainage and periodic topping are the most important maintenance tasks in Northwest Arkansas's wet climate.

Hello Gravel coordinates deliveries and can flag orders for testing needs, but certified compaction tests and signed reports are provided by third-party geotechnical firms or your contractor. If your project requires documentation, tell our team when you order so we can help schedule a supplier and confirm whether local partners can accommodate pre-placement samples or testing arrangements.

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.
