Fill Dirt in Kirbyville, TX

A typical tri-axle dump truck used by Hello Gravel carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill dirt. Delivered price to Kirbyville usually varies with local supply and distance, but expect a delivered range of roughly $250 to $600 per truckload; exact pricing is shown after you enter your zip code. Note our minimum order is 3 tons, so smaller deliveries may be quoted by weight or in partial loads.

To cover 1,000 sq ft at 2 inches deep you need about 6.2 cubic yards of fill dirt (1000 * 2/324 = 6.17). We recommend ordering about 10% extra to allow for settling and compaction, so plan on roughly 7 cubic yards. For a firm price including delivery to Kirbyville, enter your zip code or contact our sales team.

Fill dirt is one of the least expensive bulk materials and Hello Gravel can deliver it in Kirbyville, but plain fill dirt alone is not a durable surface for driveways. For a low-budget approach, use compacted fill dirt as a sub-base then top with crushed stone or crusher-run for a driving surface. We can deliver the fill dirt and recommended base materials; request both in checkout and ask about local spreading and compaction options.

Cost depends on the driveway length and how deep you need the base. For example, a 20 ft by 50 ft driveway (1,000 sq ft) with a 4-inch compacted fill dirt base needs about 12.4 cubic yards of material; material plus delivery for that volume in Kirbyville will commonly fall in the range of $300 to $900, and base grading/compaction by a contractor is typically $400 to $1,500 depending on access and site work. For an accurate quote, provide the driveway length, desired base depth, and your Kirbyville zip code so we can price material and delivery.

One tri-axle load of about 10 to 12 cubic yards will cover roughly 1,620 to 1,944 sq ft at a 2-inch depth (1 yd covers 162 sq ft at 2 in). How many driveways that equals depends on each driveway's size; for example, it will cover about one average 2-car driveway (roughly 1,000–1,600 sq ft at thin depths) or portions of several smaller jobs. Per-truck prices delivered to Kirbyville typically range from about $250 to $600, but exact rates depend on availability and your zip code.

No, a 2-inch layer of fill dirt is generally not sufficient for a residential driveway because it won't provide enough structural support or drainage. Better options are 4 to 6 inches of well-compacted fill or road base for a sub-base, topped with 2 to 3 inches of crushed stone or crusher-run for the driving surface. If you want a more permanent surface, consider thicker base layers or stabilized materials; we can deliver the required quantities to Kirbyville and help estimate volumes.

Fill dirt does not harden like concrete and is not a substitute for a stabilized surface. For a surface that behaves more like concrete, consider asphalt, concrete, or bound aggregates such as soil stabilizer-treated base or polymer-stabilized road base. Hello Gravel can deliver suitable base materials like crusher-run, road base, or gravel to Kirbyville that work with local contractors or stabilization products.

Fill dirt is a structural, inexpensive soil used to raise grades or fill low spots and is not a decorative black gravel like Texas black or Blackstar. If you need decorative black gravel for landscaping or driveways in Kirbyville, we can source and deliver those decorative aggregates separately — check the product pages or add a note at checkout to request dark-colored gravel options. Remember that fill dirt and decorative gravels serve different purposes and are priced differently.
