Frequently Asked Questions - Midlothian Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Midlothian.
Yes, fill dirt is generally less expensive than topsoil in Midlothian because it is mostly subsoil with fewer organic materials. Prices vary by supplier and delivery distance in the West Texas region, so check Hello Gravel for local quotes and minimum order requirements.
Yes, fill dirt can be used to raise low spots and level surfaces, but it should be compacted in layers to avoid future settling. For final grading before planting grass, add a 2-4 inch layer of topsoil or amended soil on top to support turf growth.
No. Fill dirt is mostly inert subsoil with little organic matter, used to build up grades and fill holes, while topsoil is richer and better for planting. In Midlothian’s climate, use fill dirt for bulk grading and topsoil for lawns, gardens, and areas where plants will grow.
A clean, compactable clay-loam or sandy-clay fill is commonly used around Midlothian because it compacts well and matches local subsoil. Avoid fill with lots of debris, organic matter, or trash; request local suppliers to describe the material and note regional variations when ordering from Hello Gravel.
Costs depend on volume, supplier, and delivery distance; a typical tri-axle dump load (about 10-14 cubic yards) in the region commonly ranges from roughly $250 to $800. For an exact price for your address and the Hello Gravel minimum order (3 tons), check our online quote tool or contact the sales team.
One cubic yard of fill dirt is a stack about 3 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 3 feet high — roughly enough to cover a 9 square foot area to 4 inches deep. A tri-axle truck usually carries about 10-14 cubic yards, depending on moisture content and compaction.
Save money by ordering only the volume needed, having material delivered to a central spot, and doing spreading and compaction yourself in 4-6 inch lifts. Renting a plate compactor or small roller and compacting each layer prevents costly rework from settling later.
Grass will struggle to grow directly on bare fill dirt because it lacks organic matter and nutrients. To establish turf, place 2-4 inches of quality topsoil or a topsoil/compost mix over the fill, then seed or sod; this is especially important in Midlothian’s hot, sometimes drought-prone summers.
Stabilize fill by compacting in thin lifts, installing temporary erosion control (straw mulch, erosion blankets), and grading to direct water away from slopes and structures. For long-term stability, establish vegetation or use rock armoring depending on slope steepness and local drainage patterns.
Some hardy weeds and pioneer plants may grow in fill dirt, but most garden plants and lawns need the nutrients and structure of topsoil. For planting, amend the fill or add a topsoil layer to improve fertility, drainage, and rooting depth.
Concerns include poor drainage, future settling, contamination, and unsuitable organic content; these can lead to uneven lawns, foundation issues, or poor plant performance. Have suppliers describe material composition, follow proper compaction practices, and ask Hello Gravel for local best practices to reduce risk.
Clear vegetation and debris, set grade stakes or flags, and mark utilities before delivery; call 811 to locate underground lines. Decide delivery placement with the driver, plan for compaction equipment, and request spreading notes at checkout if you want the driver to assess tailgate spreading.
Typically, fill dirt costs less per cubic yard than crushed stone or gravel because it is less processed and has lower material costs. Choose gravel when you need drainage, a stable surface, or decorative finish, and choose fill dirt for bulk raising and backfill tasks.
The 70/30 guideline (70% existing soil mixed with 30% compost or amendment) is used to improve planting beds rather than using straight fill dirt. If you plan to use fill dirt as bulk base, add enough topsoil and compost to reach a soil mix close to 70/30 in the root zone; in Midlothian aim for at least 6-8 inches of amended soil for beds.
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.
