Why Poth Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Poth, West Texas, is a small but growing community of 2,094 residents. With a steady 1.10% annual growth rate and a semi-arid climate—about 220 sunny days a year and 32.91 inches of rain—homeowners and contractors are regularly updating yards and properties to manage drainage, grading, and new construction. That combination of steady growth, outdoor-friendly weather, and West Texas terrain drives demand for reliable aggregates. Homeowners seek quality fill dirt to level lots, build pads for sheds and additions, backfill foundations, and correct low spots so water runs away from structures. Choosing properly screened, locally sourced fill dirt helps ensure good compaction, reduces settling, and limits erosion in Poth’s climate.Popular Projects in Poth This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Poth Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Poth.
Prices vary by supplier, haul distance, and material quality, but delivered fill dirt in West Texas commonly runs in the low tens to a few dozen dollars per cubic yard. A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 12-14 cubic yards loose, so a single truckload can range widely depending on distance and local rates. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order (3 tons) and can show exact pricing after you enter your zip code and delivery location.
Fill dirt is usually cheaper for bulk lifting and rough grading because it is intended as inexpensive structural fill. Use fill dirt to bring your yard to grade, then add topsoil for planting or a layer of gravel for a finished surface depending on use. For a residential lot in Poth, order fill dirt to raise grade and then order topsoil or decorative gravel for the finished layer.
Yes, fill dirt is commonly used to level yards. Calculate volume by multiplying area (square feet) by desired depth (feet) and dividing by 27 (cubic feet in a cubic yard); allow an extra 10-20% for settlement and compaction. For help with your exact quantity, use our material calculator or enter your address to get a delivery estimate for Poth.
Fill dirt is usually low in organic matter and not ideal as a planting medium, so grass and most plants perform poorly if placed directly on it. We recommend covering fill dirt with 4-6 inches of good topsoil or amending with compost before seeding or sodding. In West Texas' dry climate, topsoil and proper irrigation will greatly improve establishment.
A 20x20 area raised 6 inches needs about 7.4 cubic yards (20 x 20 x 0.5 ft = 200 cubic feet; 200 / 27 = 7.4 cu yd); round up to 8-9 cu yd to allow for compaction and settling. Hello Gravel can deliver that amount to Poth; request tailgate spreading at checkout but note spreading is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. If you need spreading, mention it in Order Notes and our team will coordinate with the hauler.
Before delivery, mark the work area, call 811 to locate utilities, and confirm there are no local permits required through Atascosa County or Poth city offices for your project. Grade slopes to maintain drainage away from buildings and plan for compaction in lifts (usually 4-6 inch lifts compacted) if structural stability is needed. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery only; we do not provide full site-prep services, so hire a local contractor for trenching, compaction, or permit work if required.
Yes, compacted fill dirt can serve as the subgrade for a gravel driveway. For West Texas, a common approach is 4-6 inches of compacted fill dirt or structural fill, then 3-4 inches of crushed stone base and a 2-3 inch wearing layer of gravel, with compaction after each layer. If your soil is very soft or clayey, consider a thicker compacted base or a geotextile fabric to reduce rutting.
One cubic yard is a 3-foot by 3-foot by 3-foot cube and will cover 100 square feet at 0.33 inch depth or about 27 square feet at 4 inches depth. A tri-axle dump truck typically carries about 12-14 cubic yards loose, so a small yard project of 8-10 cu yd can usually be handled with one truck. Remember Hello Gravel's minimum order and factor in extra for compaction and settling.
Two inches of gravel is generally too thin for a driveway and will wear quickly in West Texas conditions. Aim for at least 4-6 inches of compacted gravel overall (including base and wearing course) on top of a well-compacted fill dirt base for a residential driveway. Proper compaction and appropriate stone sizes help prevent washouts and rutting in Poth's dry climate.
Costs vary with driveway width, depth, material choice, hauling distance, and labor rates, but a rough ballpark for materials and delivery for a typical 10-foot-wide, 100-foot driveway might be a few hundred to a few thousand dollars for materials, with installation labor adding further cost. For an accurate price in Poth, use Hello Gravel to get local material and delivery quotes and then get a few local contractor bids for spreading and compaction. We can show estimated materials and delivery costs once you enter your zip code and project dimensions.
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.
