Dirt, topsoil and gravel delivery in Gardendale
Revised October 2026
Delivered prices for Fieldstown Road, Mount Olive, Shady Grove, Main Street and Moncrief Road, with delivery notes for this side of town.
What the ground is like
Gardendale sits on the edge of the Warrior coal field, where sandstone and shale ridges with thin, rocky soil alternate with narrow creek valleys. The east and northeast sides of town are rocky and hilly with ravines, while the newer growth on the west side along Fieldstown and Shady Grove roads is on cleared, graded clay. Black Creek and Fivemile Creek drain the area and flood low ground, and old coal workings are likely under some older lots.
Getting a truck in
Newer west-side subdivisions have standard streets; east-side and Mount Olive lots are often on steep or gravel roads with limited truck turnaround.
