Why Goldthwaite Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Goldthwaite is a small but active community of 3,010 residents where steady local growth (0.25% annually) and West Texas conditions shape how homeowners build and maintain yards and properties. With 230 sunny days a year, 33.35 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8a, projects range from driveway and foundation repairs to grading and raised-bed landscaping. That combination of sun, seasonal rain, and local clay and loam soils increases demand for quality aggregates that compact well and move water predictably. Both DIY homeowners and local contractors need predictable compaction and consistent gradation for long-term stability. Homeowners choose reliable fill dirt to raise low spots, backfill foundations, set posts, and create proper drainage, because poorly sourced material can settle unevenly, hold moisture, or introduce organic matter that decomposes over time.Popular Projects in Goldthwaite This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Goldthwaite Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Goldthwaite.
Prices vary, but expect delivered fill dirt in Goldthwaite and surrounding West Texas to range roughly $10 to $25 per ton depending on local supply, truck access, and distance. Rural deliveries or short-notice requests can add fees, so get a quote through Hello Gravel for a firm price.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers serving Goldthwaite; specific carrier names vary by zip code. Minimum orders for residential deliveries usually start at 3 tons, while full-truck or contractor loads commonly begin at 10 to 12 tons depending on truck type.
For driveways and grading in Goldthwaite's clay-heavy soils, a well-graded fill dirt with some sand or granular material blended in performs better than pure clay because it drains and compacts more predictably. For final driveway surfaces consider placing a layer of road base or crusher run on top of compacted fill to improve drainage and limit rutting in the hot, dry climate.
To raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches you need about 9.3 cubic yards, which converts to roughly 11 tons of fill dirt using a common estimate of 1.2 tons per cubic yard. We recommend ordering a small extra amount (10 to 20 percent) to allow for compaction and any grading adjustments.
Plain fill dirt is useful for raising low spots, but it is not the best material for improving drainage because it often contains fine particles that retain water. For slopes in Goldthwaite, combine compacted fill with engineered drainage measures such as gravel trenches, perforated pipe, or a drainage blanket and add vegetation or erosion-control matting to stabilize soil.
Compact fill dirt in thin lifts of 4 to 6 inches using a plate compactor for small areas or a small vibratory roller for larger jobs, and aim for firm, even compaction. Contractors may condition moisture before compacting; for structural fills or building pads, require compaction testing or follow engineer specifications.
If properly compacted and covered with topsoil, gravel, or vegetation, fill dirt under lawns, pads, or paved surfaces usually needs little replenishment beyond minor settling in the first year. Exposed loose fill on slopes or temporary piles may erode in storms and could need touch-ups after heavy rains.
Fill dirt is best for raising grade and general bulk fill; it compacts but may not drain well. Crusher run and road base are crushed stone mixes that compact tightly and provide a stable, draining base for driveways. Topsoil is for planting and should not be used as structural fill or driveway base.
Yes. Check with Goldthwaite City Hall and Mills County for any grading, building pad, or septic permit requirements, and review your HOA covenants for restrictions on visible stockpiles or changes to yard grade. When in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or local authorities before delivery.
Deliveries are usually made by tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10 to 15 tons; driveway width of about 12 feet and 14 feet of vertical clearance are good rules of thumb. Rural Goldthwaite addresses may incur extra charges for long drives, narrow access, or off-road dumping, and drivers will assess tailgate spreading requests on arrival.
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.
