Why Clear Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Clear Lake sits within a growing West Texas region with a city population of 993,588 and a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually. With 228/year sunny days, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners face weather that combines heat, strong sun, and occasional heavy rains. That climate drives demand for reliable grading, drainage, and site-prep materials that stand up to seasonal runoff and long, dry summers. Homeowners and small contractors alike look for predictable, low-organic aggregates to minimize settling, control erosion, and make landscaping or foundation work easier to finish on schedule.Popular Projects in Clear Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Clear Lake Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Clear Lake.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Clear Lake vary with quantity, truck access, and supplier availability. Expect a typical delivered range of about $12 to $35 per ton for fill dirt in the West Texas/Clear Lake area, with lower per-ton rates for larger orders and higher rates for tight access or small loads. For an exact, up-to-date price for your zip code, use our checkout or contact Hello Gravel for a local quote.
A standard tri-axle dump truck commonly used by our suppliers holds roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards of fill dirt, which is about 13 to 18 tons depending on moisture and soil type. Delivered cost per truck in Clear Lake typically ranges from about $250 to $700; optional spreading by the driver may be possible but is not guaranteed and can add $100 to $400 or more depending on labor and site difficulty. For a firm price, request a truckload quote and note any spreading requirements at checkout.
Costs depend on driveway length and the depth of fill. As an example, for a 20 ft wide by 100 ft long driveway with 4 inches of fill dirt you need about 24.7 cubic yards (roughly 32 tons). Expect material and delivery for the fill dirt in Clear Lake to run roughly $400 to $1,200, and compaction plus crushed base and final gravel to add $800 to $2,500 depending on access and contractor rates; get a local quote for exact pricing.
Use 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet and a practical conversion of about 1.3 tons per cubic yard for fill dirt (typical local estimate). For 1,000 sq ft: 2 inches = 6.17 yd3 ≈ 8.0 tons; 3 inches = 9.25 yd3 ≈ 12.0 tons; 4 inches = 12.33 yd3 ≈ 16.0 tons. These are estimates; request a waste factor (10-15%) and confirm the local conversion if material is very wet or rocky.
For short-term coverage you can add surface gravel directly, but for a long-lasting driveway or grade work you should remove organic/topsoil, place compacted structural fill as needed, and install a crushed stone base before the surface gravel. Clear Lake soils often have clay and drainage issues, so contractors commonly recommend compacted fill and a 4-6 inch crushed base (crusher run or similar) to prevent rutting and settlement. If you are raising grade or filling holes, use clean fill dirt or structural fill and compact it in lifts.
Regulations vary by municipality and HOA; Clear Lake addresses may fall under city or county jurisdictions with different rules. Common restrictions include grading permits, drainage and runoff controls, impervious cover limits, and HOA rules about front-yard landscaping or visible gravel. Check with your city building department and your HOA before making major changes to avoid required permits or fines.
Many suppliers and contracted haulers can offer limited tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on access and safety. Full spreading and compaction are usually performed by local landscapers or contractors; expect labor or contractor fees from roughly $50 to $150 per hour, or a flat job rate commonly in the $200 to $600 range depending on scope. Renting a plate compactor typically costs $50 to $150 per day if you prefer to compact yourself.
Yes. Heavy rain, hurricane season, and peak construction times can reduce supplier availability, slow delivery windows, and push prices higher. Spring and late summer storms in the Clear Lake region can cause short-term delays and require flexible scheduling. We recommend ordering early and checking lead times in your zip code for planned projects.
For drainage and long-term stability in the Clear Lake area, contractors usually recommend structural fill (clean sand or granular fill) to build grade and crushed stone base (crusher run or 3/4-inch minus) under the surface layer. Avoid high-clay fill where drainage is needed; top with well-graded crushed stone (#57 or crusher run) and compact properly to reduce settlement. Adding a geotextile fabric over soft spots can improve performance on coastal clay soils.
Yes—Hello Gravel coordinates local suppliers who can provide on-site quotes and same-week delivery when inventory and truck schedules allow. Suppliers typically need your delivery zip code, square footage, desired depth, any access constraints (driveway width, overhead wires, gate height), and preferred delivery date. For next-day delivery options, place orders before the local cutoff (often noon CST) and be prepared for an additional fee.
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.
