Dirt removal and grading delivery in Hueytown, AL

Get rid of a pile, strip a lot, spread what you ordered, fix the grade. Delivered to Dolomite, Pleasant Ridge, Virginia Estates and the rest of Hueytown.

Haul-off jobs in Hueytown are pool digs, footing spoil, and lots that were graded toward the house instead of away from it. Clean clay is cheap to get rid of because other jobs want it as fill. Dirt mixed with roots, stumps or concrete costs more. A regrade around Dolomite usually runs a half day to a day of skid steer time.

Dirt removal and grading jobs in Hueytown

Hueytown sits on the coal-bearing sandstone and shale hills of western Jefferson County; several subdivisions, including Virginia Estates and Edenwood, were built on former coal mining land, so old spoil and settling ground are likely. Red clay with rock close to the surface covers the ridges, and Valley Creek and smaller branches hold water in the low areas. Tornado damage in 1998 and 2011 left rebuilt lots with disturbed, uneven grading.

What it is for

  • Hauling off the spoil from a pool, basement or footing dig
  • Stripping and removing an old lawn or a bad layer of fill
  • Spreading and leveling delivered dirt
  • Regrading a yard so water runs away from the house

This is not junk removal. Dirt mixed with construction debris, concrete or trash is a different job and a different price; say what is in the pile.

Getting the truck in

Mostly 1950s to 1980s neighborhoods with moderate street widths; some ridge lots have steep driveways and the Concord side has rural roads with gravel drives.

Questions people ask

How much does it cost to haul off dirt?

Around Birmingham, $150 to $500 per truckload including loading, depending on access and whether the dirt is clean. A pool dig is usually three to six loads.

Can I get rid of dirt for free?

Sometimes. Clean clay fill is wanted by people building pads, and a hauler who has a job nearby may take it cheap. It still costs money to load and haul. Dirt with roots or debris in it is never free.

Can a dump truck reach my spot in Hueytown?

Mostly 1950s to 1980s neighborhoods with moderate street widths; some ridge lots have steep driveways and the Concord side has rural roads with gravel drives. Say what the access is like on the quote form and the price will allow for the right size truck.
