Why Dallas Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dallas is a city of 1.1+ million residents inside the larger Dallas-Fort Worth metro area of 2.7+ million, and it is growing at about 0.40% annually. The region sits in hardiness zone 8b, averages 228 sunny days per year, and receives 34.25 inches of rain annually. Those climate and growth factors drive steady homebuilding, landscaping, and drainage projects across the metro. As yards are graded, foundations backfilled, and driveways rebuilt, homeowners and contractors need dependable bulk material to control settling, prevent erosion, and establish consistent grades. Fill dirt is often the go-to material for creating a compactable subgrade for lawns, patios, retaining walls, and structural backfill, helping projects meet compaction needs and avoid future uneven settling.Popular Projects in Dallas This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dallas Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Dallas.
In Dallas-Fort Worth, delivered fill dirt usually runs about $10 to $25 per ton, depending on supply, distance, and volume. Local sourcing, trucking distance, and whether the material is screened or contains large rocks influence price, so check your ZIP code for exact quotes through Hello Gravel.
Hello Gravel connects you with multiple Dallas-area suppliers and haulers that carry fill dirt; our platform shows local options once you enter your ZIP code. Minimum orders are commonly 3 tons (our platform minimum), but some suppliers or site conditions may require larger loads (5 to 10 tons) or a truckload minimum — confirm at checkout or with our team.
Standard delivery through Hello Gravel is 2+ business days and often included in the quoted price; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Same-day delivery is rarely available and usually carries a higher charge and limited time windows — contact our team to check availability for your address.
Because fill dirt density varies, use a working conversion of about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt in Dallas. For planning, pick a middle value (1.4 tons per cubic yard) and order a bit extra (10% to 15%) to account for compaction and settling.
Many Dallas projects that change drainage or regrade more than a few inches can trigger city permitting or HOA approval requirements. Check the City of Dallas building and drainage rules and your HOA guidelines before placing large fill orders; when in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or your local permitting office for guidance.
Fill dirt can compact well in Dallas clay soils if installed properly, but Dallas clay holds moisture and may need staged compaction. Contractors typically place fill in 4- to 6-inch lifts and use a plate compactor for small areas or a vibratory roller for larger pads, with moisture conditioning as needed to reach good density.
Neither screened nor clean fill dirt is an ideal final driveway surface in Dallas; screened fill dirt compacts more uniformly and is better for grading and top fills, but it tends to hold water and can rut under vehicle traffic. For driveways, use a proper base of compacted crushed stone or crushed rock with fill dirt only for subgrade or minor leveling, and add a wearing surface designed for drainage and traffic.
Dallas contractors typically spread fill dirt in thin lifts (4 to 6 inches), compact each lift, and shape the area to provide positive drainage away from foundations. They also remove organic topsoil where required, use laser or string grading for accuracy on pads, and stabilize slopes with seed, sod, or erosion control fabric if needed.
Yes — adding fill can change surface drainage and increase runoff, which may create erosion or affect neighboring properties and stormwater systems in Dallas. Use best practices like maintaining positive flow away from structures, installing silt fencing or erosion control during work, and check local stormwater rules before major fills.
If left as the wearing surface, fill dirt on driveways or parking pads will usually degrade quickly under traffic and weather — often needing touch-ups within 1 to 3 years depending on use and drainage. Proper compaction, a structural base (crushed rock), and a surface layer designed for traffic significantly extend life and reduce maintenance.
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.
