Dirt, topsoil and gravel delivery in Pell City
Revised October 2026
Delivered prices for Cropwell, Eden, Seddon, Logan Martin Lake and Downtown Cogswell Avenue, with delivery notes for this side of town.
What the ground is like
Pell City sits on the Coosa River where it was dammed to form Logan Martin Lake in 1964, so a large share of properties are lakefront or near-lake lots with soft, eroding shoreline soil and steep banks. Away from the water the land is rolling red clay over shale and limestone with chert ridges to the north. Lake-level fluctuations and heavy rain leave low lots saturated, and many waterfront homes need fill for seawall backfill, eroded banks and sunken yards.
Getting a truck in
Lake roads around Cropwell and Logan Martin are narrow with tight, steep driveways to the water; in-town lots and newer subdivisions off US 231 are straightforward.
