Why Paradise Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Paradise homeowners (city population 6,990) are seeing steady demand for site work and landscaping as local development keeps pace with the wider West Texas region (metro area population 2.5+ million). With a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a semi-arid climate that records 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, simple grading, drainage, and foundation prep are common needs. Homeowners and small contractors alike turn to reliable aggregates to level yards, raise low spots, build berms, and backfill foundations. Because local geology affects fill characteristics, residents prefer locally sourced materials that match soil behavior and drainage expectations for long-term stability.Popular Projects in Paradise This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Paradise Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Paradise.
Prices vary by supplier and truckload, but in the Paradise, TX area a typical range is roughly $8 to $30 per ton or about $10 to $40 per cubic yard depending on screening, delivery distance, and seasonal demand. Exact price depends on local availability, whether the material is screened, and delivery fees; check your zip code on Hello Gravel for a precise quote. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day available before noon CST for an extra fee.
Use volume first: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) = cubic feet, divided by 27 gives cubic yards. In West Texas, 1 cubic yard of fill dirt commonly weighs between about 1.1 and 1.4 tons depending on moisture and composition, so multiply cubic yards by 1.1–1.4 to get tons. For example, raising a 1,000 sq ft area by 3 inches (0.25 ft) equals 9.26 cu yd, roughly 10–13 tons of fill dirt.
Fill dirt is commonly used in West Texas for building grade and filling low spots, but local soils like clay and caliche affect drainage and compaction. Fill dirt is fine for bulk raising and backfill, but if you need a stable, well-draining surface for a driveway or pad you should cap it with crusher run or crushed stone; consult a local contractor for site-specific concerns. Expect more movement with heavy clay soils and take erosion control measures during seasonal rains.
Screened fill dirt is sifted to remove rocks, roots, and large clods, so it compacts more evenly and is better for landscaping and finish grading; screened material typically costs more than unscreened. Unscreened fill dirt is cheaper and fine for rough fill where appearance and fine compaction are not critical. Ask for your preference in the Order Notes at checkout and Hello Gravel will connect you with local suppliers offering both options when available.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers that service the Paradise, TX area; available suppliers and whether they offer screened vs unscreened material depend on regional stock. Minimum orders through Hello Gravel start at 3 tons, but individual suppliers or larger delivery trucks may have higher minimums—your checkout quote will show any supplier minimums and fees. If you need larger quantities or specific screening, contact our team early so we can match you with the right local supplier.
Use fill dirt to raise grades, fill low spots, and as general backfill where structural surface strength is not required. For driveway bases and finished surfaces in West Texas you want crusher run or crushed stone because those materials compact tightly, shed water, and resist rutting. A common approach is fill with fill dirt where needed, then install a compacted crusher-run base and a final wearing course of crushed stone for durability.
Contractors typically clear vegetation, remove organics, and proof-roll the site to identify soft spots before placing fill dirt. They place fill dirt in lifts (commonly 6 to 8 inches), moisture-condition each lift as needed, and compact with a plate compactor or roller to reduce future settlement. For deep fills or where loads will be applied, contractors may perform geotechnical testing or bring in engineered backfill and compaction standards.
Fill dirt can do the job long-term if it is properly compacted and protected, but some settlement is normal in the first year as material consolidates. Expect to add a little more material and regrade low spots after heavy rains or freeze-thaw cycles, and keep erosion control (mulch, seeding, or silt fences) on newly placed fills until vegetation or surfacing is in place. For driveways, top with crusher run or crushed stone to reduce maintenance and surface erosion.
Rules vary—small landscaping deliveries usually don’t require permits, but large volume imports, changes to drainage, or grading that affects neighboring properties can trigger county or city permitting and HOA restrictions. Check with Paradise city hall, Wise County, and your HOA before ordering large loads, and document any permit requirements when planning delivery. Hello Gravel recommends contacting local authorities early to avoid delays and speaking with our team if you need guidance.
Yes: West Texas weather affects delivery and installation. Deliveries are easier in dry conditions; heavy rains can make access muddy, increase erosion risk on fresh fills, and may delay spreading. Schedule deliveries with seasonal weather in mind, request tailgate spreading at checkout if desired (driver discretion), and use erosion control measures immediately after placement to limit washouts.
Hello Gravel arranges delivery through local contracted haulers; standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion—request it at checkout and note site access details, but spreading isn't guaranteed; for guaranteed spreading or detailed placement hire a local contractor. Our checkout shows delivery options, minimums (3 tons), and any extra fees for special services.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
