Fill Dirt in Moore, OK

In Moore (West Oklahoma) fill-dirt commonly ranges from about $8 to $15 per ton and $10 to $20 per cubic yard delivered. Prices depend on where the material is sourced, truck distance, and whether the load is loose or compacted; check your zip code for exact pricing.

A single tri-axle dump truck (about 10–12 cubic yards) delivered to a Moore residential driveway typically costs between $250 and $700 all together. Final cost depends on truck size, distance from the pit, driveway access, and any small-load surcharges.

To cover 1,000 sq ft you need roughly 6.2 cubic yards at 2u0022, 12.4 cubic yards at 4u0022, and 18.5 cubic yards at 6u0022. Using a typical conversion of about 1.2 tons per cubic yard, that’s about 7.5 tons, 14.8 tons, and 22.2 tons respectively (estimates).

Many local drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if driveway access and safety allow, but full grading and compaction are usually separate services done by contractors. Expect basic tailgate spreading to be free or a small courtesy, while professional grading/compaction commonly runs $75 to $200 per hour or $200 to $800 per small job depending on equipment and scope.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; many local suppliers follow similar minimums but some will deliver smaller loads for an added small-load fee. Small-load delivery surcharges in Moore typically range from $50 to $150 depending on distance and truck routing.

Yes, fill-dirt is generally cheaper than crushed rock or gravel, but it is not a good long-term driveway base because it doesn’t drain or lock together like crushed stone. For a stable, long-lasting driveway base in Moore’s soils, crushed rock is usually recommended; use fill-dirt for leveling low spots or raising grade where drainage and load bearing are not primary concerns.

Standard deliveries in the Moore area usually require at least 2 business days’ lead time, and next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST with an extra fee. Seasonal demand (spring and fall) can increase lead time, so book early for larger jobs.

For a 20-foot-wide driveway that is 50 feet long (1,000 sq ft), expect to pay roughly $600 to $2,000 total for materials, delivery, and basic grading depending on depth needed, material price ($10–$20/yd3), delivery distance, and local grading rates. A simple top-fill at 4u0022 will be near the lower end; deeper rebuilds, compaction, and improved base stone will increase costs.

In most cases a delivery of loose fill-dirt does not require a permit, but significant regrading, raising lot elevation, or changing drainage patterns may need city permits or HOA approval in Moore. Always check Moore city codes, call planning or your HOA, and mark utilities via 811 before work begins to avoid violations and utility damage.

Basic grading and light compaction for a small yard in Moore typically costs $250 to $800, while larger jobs or those requiring heavy compaction and finish grading can run $800 to $2,000. Contractors usually charge by the hour ($75–$150/hr) or give a flat price based on job size and equipment needed.

Many suppliers and Hello Gravel can provide an initial estimate from measurements or photos sent online; this is often enough for material quoting. For bigger jobs or exact pricing (including spreading/compaction), an on-site estimate may be recommended to confirm access, slope, and material needs.
