Why Marshall Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Marshall, West Texas, is a growing city of 29,204 residents experiencing a 1.00% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, local projects balance long dry stretches with seasonal rains. That combination, along with steady population-driven construction and yard upgrades, increases demand for dependable bulk materials for grading, foundation prep, and landscape regrading. Homeowners seek consistent aggregates that compact predictably and support drainage; Fill Dirt meets those needs by providing economical bulk volume for raising grades, stabilizing slopes, and creating structural fill where topsoil or engineered mixes aren’t required. Choosing the right fill reduces settlement risk and keeps projects on schedule in Marshall’s climate and growing building market.Popular Projects in Marshall This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Marshall Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Marshall.
Delivered fill dirt in Marshall typically ranges depending on supplier, distance, and site access. Expect approximate delivered pricing of about $10 to $30 per ton (rough range) or roughly $12 to $40 per cubic yard; exact price depends on volume, truck access, and whether spreading is requested. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and can provide a precise quote for your zip code and site conditions.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which is common among local suppliers. Bulk discounts commonly start around 10 to 15 tons, with per-ton pricing falling as volume increases; contractors ordering truckloads will generally see the best rates. For a firm price and availability, request a quote for your specific delivery address.
Remove organic material and soft spots, then proof-roll or scarify the existing subgrade to identify unstable areas. Place fill in thin lifts (4 to 6 inches loose), moisture-condition each lift, and compact to near-spec density using a plate compactor or roller; in Marshall’s clay soils avoid compacting when the soil is bone dry or excessively wet. Consider geotextile fabric or a crushed-stone working layer where drainage or long-term stability is a concern.
Fill dirt alone is not recommended as the wearing layer for a driveway; it is best used to raise grade or backfill. For a durable driveway, place well-compacted fill dirt to establish grade, then install 4 to 8 inches of road base or crushed limestone and finish with a surface layer (¾” rock or decomposed granite) to carry traffic. A properly built base and surface can last many years in Marshall, while bare fill dirt will rut and erode quickly under vehicle traffic.
Use the volume formula: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards. For example, a 10 ft x 30 ft area (300 sq ft) filled to 6 inches (0.5 ft) requires 300 x 0.5 / 27 = about 5.6 cubic yards, which is roughly 6 to 7 tons depending on material density. Densities vary by material and moisture; use Hello Gravel’s calculator or request help for a precise estimate.
General fill dirt is often fine-grained and compacts well for bulk grade-raising but can retain water and drain poorly by itself. For improved drainage and compaction near foundations, pads, or roads, specify select or structural fill (well-graded sand/gravel or 3/4" minus) or add a drainage layer of coarse aggregate below the compacted fill. Talk to local suppliers about available gradations—regional materials vary—and choose a material matched to the project’s drainage and load requirements.
Fill dirt is primarily for filling and grading; crushed limestone or engineered road base is designed to bear loads, shed water, and interlock under traffic. For driveways and rural access roads in Marshall, use compacted road base or crushed limestone as the structural layer and reserve fill dirt for subgrade raising or leveling. Using fill dirt as the surface will lead to poor performance and higher maintenance.
Fill dirt and related materials are generally available year-round in the Marshall area, but local availability can vary with regional sourcing and demand. Heavy rains and wet site conditions can delay deliveries and make sites inaccessible, and demand spikes in spring and fall can increase lead times. Check availability and lead times for your specific zip code when you order through Hello Gravel.
Bare fill dirt surfaces will compact, rut, and erode and typically require frequent grading and additional material after storms; expect touch-ups seasonally or after heavy use. If you top the compacted fill with a proper road base and surface gravel, maintenance is reduced to periodic grading and adding 1 to 2 inches of gravel every few years depending on traffic. Hello Gravel can deliver top-up loads as needed to keep surfaces in good condition.
Local rules can affect driveways—Marshall and Harrison County may require driveway permits, culverts, or specific setback and sight-distance standards for connections to public roads. Before changing a driveway or altering road access, check with the City of Marshall public works or Harrison County offices to confirm permit requirements and any culvert or approach standards. When in doubt, ask Hello Gravel customer service for local guidance and we can recommend checking municipal contacts.

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.
