Dirt, topsoil and gravel delivery in Calera

Revised October 2026

Delivered prices for Camden Cove, Savannah Pointe, Timberline, Waterford and Downtown Calera, with delivery notes for this side of town.

What the ground is like

Calera is named from the Spanish word for quarry, and the city sits on thick limestone that is still quarried on its edges. The land is flat to gently rolling with red clay and chert over limestone, and sinkholes are possible in the karst areas. Buxahatchee Creek and smaller branches hold water after storms. Most housing is in newer subdivisions built on cleared, graded ground where settling and poor backyard drainage are common.

Getting a truck in

Newer HOA subdivisions with standard streets and easy I-65 access; rural lots toward Chilton County are on gravel drives.
