Why Ingleside Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Ingleside's city population of 9,680 sits inside a growing West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.7+ million and a steady growth rate of 1.12% annually. The local climate — about 228 sunny days annually, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b — supports active residential development and outdoor projects. As yards are regraded and building pads prepared, homeowners and contractors need dependable bulk materials to raise grades, fill low spots, and stabilize slopes. Quality fill dirt provides volume and compaction where topsoil or decorative mixes are inappropriate, and many homeowners come to this material looking for clear quantity estimates and guidance on how it will affect local drainage and long-term stability.Popular Projects in Ingleside This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Ingleside Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Ingleside.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Ingleside commonly fall in the range of about $10 to $25 per ton depending on haul distance, supplier inventory, and how much you order. Smaller orders and next-day requests push the price toward the high end, while bulk orders and local suppliers usually get the best per-ton rate. Contact our team or use the site calculator for an up-to-date quote for your zip code.
For West Texas clay soils, choose fill dirt with low organic content, a mix of fines and some sand, and well-graded particle sizes so it compacts evenly. Avoid topsoil or high-organic mixes that settle and shrink; instead look for engineered or screened fill dirt specified for structural fills. Proper moisture conditioning and compacting in thin lifts are as important as gradation for good long-term performance.
Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers around Ingleside and West Texas; most haulers deliver with tri-axle or standard dump trucks. Our minimum order is 3 tons, and typical tri-axle loads carry 10 to 15 tons depending on local truck regulations and material density. You can schedule standard 2+ business day delivery or request next-day service for an extra fee, and tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is done at the driver's discretion.
A quarter acre is 10,890 sq ft; raising it 6 inches (0.5 ft) requires about 5,445 cubic feet or roughly 202 cubic yards of fill. Using typical weights for fill dirt (about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard compacted), expect approximately 222 to 262 tons. Always order a small overage (5-10%) to allow for compaction and grading losses.
Fill dirt is fine for bulk grading and raising lot elevations but is not recommended as a finished driveway surface because it will rut and dust under vehicle traffic. Crushed stone, gravel base, or recycled concrete provide better drainage, load-bearing capacity, and long-term performance in hot, dry West Texas conditions. If you must use fill dirt under a driveway, place it as a compacted subgrade and finish with a proper stone or paving surface.
Ingleside can have clays and coastal influences that hold moisture and cause settlement or expansion; poor drainage across a fill area increases these risks. Mitigate issues with proper compaction, positive site grading, perimeter drains or swales, geotextile underlay for soft spots, and avoiding organic or wet soils in the imported fill. For critical fills near foundations or pavements, use engineered fill and consider professional geotechnical advice.
Residential fills are typically compacted in 4- to 6-inch lifts with a target near 90% of standard Proctor for structural fills, though landscaping fills can be lower. Small areas can be compacted with a vibratory plate compactor or walk-behind roller, while larger jobs use a tandem or sheepsfoot roller. For driveways, pads, or any load-bearing work, consider compaction testing by a lab to verify density.
Local permitting rules vary; small landscaping deliveries usually have no special permits, but large fills or commercial imports may trigger city or county permitting and inspection requirements. Check with the City of Ingleside and San Patricio County planning or environmental departments before scheduling a large delivery, and ask Hello Gravel to help document the material source if needed for permits. Also confirm any local landfill or soil disposal rules if you are removing existing material.
Fill dirt used for general lot filling or grade adjustment is long-lasting if properly placed and compacted, but surfaces made only of fill dirt require ongoing maintenance such as regrading, dust control, and erosion repairs. For low-maintenance driveways or patios, add a suitable surface layer like crushed stone, pavers, or pavement; this reduces long-term upkeep and replacement costs. Budget for periodic touch-ups after heavy rains or seasonal settling, especially on slopes or unprotected areas.
Prices can rise during busy construction seasons and after heavy rains that slow hauling; winter and early spring demand often increases. To save, order larger consolidated loads, schedule deliveries in off-peak windows, request quotes from local suppliers through Hello Gravel, and be flexible on delivery dates to avoid next-day fees. Combining orders with nearby projects or neighbors can also lower per-ton delivery costs.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. Request spreading at checkout and leave clear notes about drop location, obstacles, and desired spread depth; the driver will assess on arrival. For precise grading or compaction after delivery, plan to hire equipment or a contractor to finish the job.
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.
