Raising 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches is about 18.5 cubic yards (1,000 sq ft x 0.5 ft / 27). Fill-dirt typically equals about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard delivered, so plan on roughly 20 to 24 tons and add 10% extra for settling and compaction.

Fill-dirt works well for bulk elevation and general grading, but it is not the ideal final surface for drainage control. For reliable drainage near foundations in St. George's arid and flash-flood-prone environment, pair well-compacted fill-dirt with granular drainage layers (gravel or crushed rock), proper slopes, and drainage features like swales or French drains.

High temperatures do not damage fill-dirt, but unprotected fill-dirt can erode during heavy runoff or flash floods common in the region. To reduce washout risk, compact the material, use erosion controls (vegetation, riprap, or fabric), and shape grades to move water safely away from structures.

Use crushed rock (or aggregate base) for the driveway surface and wheel paths because it drains and compacts into a stable driving layer. Fill-dirt is suitable as bulk subgrade to build elevation before installing a crushed-rock base, but it should not be the top wearing surface under traffic.

Permits and engineered fill requirements depend on wall height, soil conditions, and local codes; many retaining walls over a certain height or supporting structures do require engineering and a permit from St. George or Washington County. Check local building department rules and consult a geotechnical engineer for walls that carry loads or exceed code thresholds.

As a compacted subgrade, fill-dirt can perform for many years if properly placed and compacted, but it is not intended as the driving surface. Expect some settlement over time; maintain the driveway by topping or regrading the wearing surface (crushed rock) and addressing drainage to prevent erosion.

Hello Gravel arranges material delivery; many local St. George contractors and suppliers do offer placement and compaction services, but these are separate from delivery. When ordering, request tailgate spreading in Order Notes (driver will assess safety) and contact local contractors for paid compaction and grading services.

Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are commonly made by tri-axle dump trucks; those trucks usually carry roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards depending on density, so plan project quantities and expect multiple truckloads for larger jobs.

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.
