Why Bowie Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bowie is a growing West Texas community with a city population of 9,060 and a metro area population of 2.7+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.80% annually and a climate defined by 228/year sunny days and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, local homeowners face a mix of dry spells and periodic heavy moisture. Those conditions drive steady demand for materials that help shape yards and foundations: grading, raising low spots, trench backfill, and creating stable pads for sheds or patios. Homeowners look for reliable, well-graded aggregates that compact predictably and resist erosion, since uneven settling or poor drainage can create recurring maintenance problems in Bowie soils and landscapes.Popular Projects in Bowie This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bowie Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Bowie.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days from order confirmation. Next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and tailgate spreading can be requested but is performed at the driver’s discretion.
Bowie and the surrounding West Texas area tend to be drier with soils that often include clays and caliche; this affects compaction and drainage. Low to moderate freeze/thaw activity means frost heave is less common than farther north, but you should still account for settlement and drainage when placing fill near foundations or landscaping.
Measure the area (length x width) and desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards using: cubic yards = (L x W x depth in inches) / 324. To estimate tons, multiply cubic yards by a rule-of-thumb density of 1.3 tons per cubic yard for local fill mixes and add 5-10% extra for compaction and waste; for exact numbers request the supplier’s density figure.
Local price ranges can vary, but typical Bowie-area prices for unscreened fill dirt are approximately $8 to $18 per ton (roughly $10 to $22 per cubic yard), while screened or cleaner fill dirt often runs about $15 to $30 per ton (roughly $18 to $35 per cubic yard). Prices depend on supplier, truck size, and seasonal demand, so contact Hello Gravel for an up-to-date quote for your zip code.
Most small residential deliveries do not require a permit, but large fills, changes to drainage, or work in regulated areas (floodplains, wetlands, or near property lines) can trigger city or county permitting. Check with the City of Bowie and Montague County building or planning departments before major earthwork and consult a local contractor if you are unsure.
Fill dirt sourced locally in West Texas often contains caliche and more clay fragments, which can compact well and provide stable mass but may drain slower than sandy imported fills. Imported materials can be blended to improve drainage; for projects that require rapid drainage, ask suppliers about sand or gravel blends.
Hello Gravel coordinates deliveries by local dump truck fleets; standard service is drop-and-leave but drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion. For grading, mechanical spreading, and compaction you will typically need to hire a local contractor or request additional services from your supplier ahead of delivery.
For structural work request material source information and, for larger projects, basic lab tests such as a gradation (sieve analysis) and a Proctor/density recommendation from a geotechnical firm. For homes and driveways, many contractors will also request a compaction test (in-place density) after placement to confirm the fill meets specified compaction levels.
Yes. Spring and summer are busier for landscaping and construction, which can push prices up and extend lead times; periods of heavy local rain or winter freezes can delay deliveries or truck access. It’s best to order early for big projects and check next-day availability if you need material quickly.
Contractors typically itemize labor and equipment for spreading and compaction (machine rental or hourly operator rates), plus costs for geotextile fabric (priced per square yard) and any trucking or haul-off fees. Ask for a line-item estimate and compare it to the material-only quote from Hello Gravel so you can budget for machine time, testing, and site prep.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
