Why Plano Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Plano has a city population of 285,461 and sits inside a metro area of 2.5+ million people. The region is growing at about 0.70% annually and falls in USDA hardiness zone 8b, with 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall. That mix of steady growth, ample sunshine, and seasonal rain creates ongoing demand for residential construction, yard regrading, and landscape upgrades. Homeowners in Plano often need dependable bulk materials for grading lots, backfilling foundations, and preparing bases for driveways and patios. Fill dirt is a practical, cost-effective material for those tasks because it fills low spots, brings sites to grade, and provides a stable mass to support finishing layers. Reliable supply and clear delivery scheduling are essential for keeping local projects on track.Popular Projects in Plano This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Plano Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Plano.
In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, delivered clean fill dirt usually runs in a low to moderate price range depending on source, volume, and truck access. Expect a wide range, so contact Hello Gravel with your zip code for an exact per-cubic-yard or per-truck quote and to see available local suppliers.
Calculate volume by multiplying length x width x depth. For example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway raised 6 inches (0.5 ft) requires about 3.7 cubic yards; always add 10-20% for compaction and waste and use our material calculator or contact our team to confirm.
Select or structural fill (a clean mix with low organic content and some fines) compacts reliably and is generally the most cost-effective option for subgrade work. Be cautious of native expansive clays common in North Texas; for a long-lasting driveway, many contractors prefer compacted select fill under a crushed-rock base rather than relying on raw topsoil or organic fill.
Fill dirt can be used to bulk-fill behind a retaining wall, but it is not a substitute for free-draining backfill immediately behind the wall. For the first 12-24 inches behind the wall use crushed stone or granular drainage material to prevent hydrostatic pressure, and place fill dirt further back only after proper drainage and compaction are in place.
No — placing decorative gravel directly on loose fill dirt usually leads to sinking, mixing, and poor drainage over time. For long-term performance, install a compacted base (select fill or crushed rock) and a geotextile fabric if needed before adding decorative gravel to keep materials separated and stable.
Fill dirt is cheaper per cubic yard when you need to raise grade or fill holes, but crushed stone is worth the investment for driveway base and drainage because it compacts and drains better. The cost-effective choice is often a combination: compacted fill dirt to bring grade up, then a crushed-stone base for the driving surface.
Fill dirt itself is not a stabilized, hardening product. If you want a hardened surface, look for polymer-stabilized aggregates or permeable pavers sold by local suppliers in the Dallas area; contact our team and we can check local availability and delivered pricing for those specialized materials.
One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet and will cover about 81 sq ft at 4 inches deep, 54 sq ft at 6 inches, or 162 sq ft at 2 inches. A 50 lb bag of loose fill is roughly 0.02 cubic yards, so it will cover about 1.5-2 sq ft at a 4-inch depth; for larger jobs order by the cubic yard.
Clean, inorganic fill dirt (low in organic matter) is less attractive to pests than topsoil or mulch, and proper grading away from foundations helps deter ants and other pests. Avoid bringing in organic-rich soils near foundations and maintain good drainage to reduce moisture that attracts pests.
Pea gravel on a loose fill-dirt base is prone to migration, sinking, and poor drainage, especially with North Texas storms and seasonal wetting. Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes or high-traffic areas unless you install a compacted base and edging; for heat concerns, darker gravels will retain more heat than lighter stones, so choose material accordingly.
Minimum orders start at our 3-ton minimum (roughly 2.5-3 cubic yards depending on material density); standard delivery is usually 2+ business days and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Note truck access and placement instructions in Order Notes, request tailgate spreading at checkout if desired (driver discretion), and contact our sales team with questions about volume, compaction needs, or site access.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
