Fill Dirt in Rogers, AR

Fill-dirt is natural soil composed mainly of fines (sand, silt, and clay) used to raise grades, fill low spots, and backfill trenches or foundations. In Rogers it is commonly used to level yards, build up pads for sheds, and fill around foundations, but it is not the best choice where drainage or structural strength is required without proper compaction and drainage measures.

Prices vary by supplier, distance, and volume, but delivered fill-dirt in the Rogers area typically falls in a broad range depending on those factors; many customers pay roughly $10 to $40 per ton delivered as a ballpark. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and offers transparent quotes when you enter your zip code, so check pricing at checkout or contact our team for an exact delivered price.

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and quarries that serve Rogers and the surrounding Benton County area; some suppliers operate within about 20-40 miles while others deliver up to 60 miles depending on truck availability. For exact supplier names, delivery radius, and material photos for your address, enter your zip code on our site or call our team and we will match you with local options.

Rogers sits on loess and clay-rich soils that can shrink, swell, and hold water after heavy rains, so fill-dirt will behave differently than in sandy regions. Expect poorer drainage and more potential settling unless you compact in lifts, add drainage provisions, or mix with coarser material; compacting when the soil is too wet or too dry will reduce performance, so aim for moderately moist conditions.

For structural driveway bases, fill-dirt alone is not ideal; request crusher run or 3/4" minus (compacted, angular aggregate) for the base and use fill-dirt only to bring elevations to grade. For foundation backfill, ask for a compactable fill with a mix of fines and sand (engineered or clean clay/sand mix) that can be compacted in lifts. For general landscaping and lawn build-up, standard fill-dirt is fine, but cap it with topsoil in planted areas.

Use cubic yards converted to tons to estimate: a 100' x 12' driveway with 4" of material is about 14.8 cu yd, roughly 18-20 tons of fill-dirt depending on moisture. A small backyard leveling of 25' x 25' at 4" is about 7.7 cu yd, roughly 9-11 tons. For foundation backfill, a 20' x 30' slab perimeter backfilled 2' wide by 2' deep (about 100 linear feet) is about 14.8 cu yd or roughly 18-20 tons. These are approximations; moisture and compaction change weights, so use our material calculator or request a quote for a precise amount.

Spring and fall are often best in Rogers because soils are not frozen and heavy summer storms are less likely than in late spring; avoid working in very wet conditions to prevent poor compaction and tracking. Rogers has a humid climate with regular rainfall, so schedule deliveries for drier spells and compact in thin lifts to limit settling from rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles.

Small residential deliveries usually do not require a permit, but larger grading projects, excavation, or retaining walls above certain heights may trigger local permits or erosion control requirements from the City of Rogers or Benton County. Check with Rogers Building and Planning or Benton County before major earthwork, especially if your project disturbs more than one acre, alters drainage, or installs retaining structures that could require engineered plans.

Fill-dirt is best for raising grade and backfill but performs poorly as a driveway surface because it compacts to a rut-prone, low-drainage finish. Crusher run or 3/4" minus are better for driveway bases because the angular particles lock together and shed water. For erosion control, larger clean stone or river rock provides stable flow paths; fill-dirt alone is not a long-term erosion control solution unless combined with armoring or vegetation.

Properly placed and compacted fill-dirt should be installed in 6" to 8" lifts and compacted to reduce settling; homeowners can expect some settlement over the first season and may need a light top-up or regrading. In Rogers' climate, check slopes and drainage after heavy rains, regrade low spots, and seed or vegetate exposed areas to reduce erosion and future maintenance.

Common add-ons include tailgate spreading (driver may offer this at their discretion), compaction rental or contractor referrals, hauling off excess material, and specific truck types (tri-axle end-dump vs belly dump) for tight access. Request these services at checkout or call our team; note that spreading and compaction are subject to driver ability and may incur extra fees.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

Use our material calculator here: https://hellograve3dev.wpengine.com/calculator/ to enter the length, width and depth measurements of your project. It will automatically calculate the cubic yards/tons needed. If you are unsure how much to order, contact our team for guidance.

Please type in your zip code on any product screen and it will let you know if we service your area. The chances are that we do!

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
