A full tri-axle truckload usually carries about 10 to 16 cubic yards; delivery costs are often included in many local quotes but can range from $100 to $400 if charged separately. Next-day or weekend deliveries, steep driveways, or long hauls may add fees. The exact price is confirmed when you enter your zip code and delivery details.

Use this simple formula: cubic yards = (area in square feet * depth in inches) / 324. For example, to raise 1,000 sq ft by 4 inches: (1000 * 4) / 324 = about 12.3 cubic yards. For complex sites, call us for an on-site or supplier estimate to account for compaction and settling.

Hello Gravel offers an online material calculator and can connect you with local suppliers or contractors who provide on-site estimates. On-site visits are usually scheduled separately by the supplier or a contractor and may have a fee depending on scope and travel. We recommend photos and measurements first; if more accuracy is needed, request a site visit.

Permit requirements depend on the scope of work and local rules; Camp Swift is in Bastrop County, so check Bastrop County permitting and any applicable floodplain or erosion control regulations. If your property is in an incorporated city or has an HOA, additional permits or approvals may be required. Suppliers generally do not obtain permits for you but can provide delivery tickets and material descriptions that help with permit applications.

Fill-dirt is suitable for raising and filling low spots because it compacts, but it is not a durable wearing surface and can rut or wash out under traffic. For a driveway, use fill-dirt only to build to grade and then top with road base and a wearing layer such as crushed stone or gravel for drainage and longevity. The combined approach costs more upfront but lasts far longer than using fill-dirt alone.

Tailgate spreading by the driver may be available at checkout but is not guaranteed; professional spreading, grading, and compaction are typically charged separately. Expect contractor rates roughly $40 to $120 per hour for equipment and operator or a project-based fee that might translate to about $0.50 to $3.00 per cubic yard depending on difficulty. Ask local contractors for itemized quotes so you can compare with the material cost.

Some suppliers and local haulers offer haul-away of existing soil or debris, but this is commonly a separate service and not included with fill-dirt delivery. Charges depend on volume, hauling distance, disposal fees, and site access; small cleanups may be quoted per load while larger jobs are priced hourly. We can connect you with providers in the area who will include removal in their estimate.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which for fill-dirt is roughly 2 to 3 cubic yards depending on moisture and compaction.

Standard deliveries are scheduled for 2 or more business days after ordering; next-day delivery may be possible for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Weekend deliveries and emergency drop-offs depend on the local supplier’s schedule and truck availability and typically cost more. When you check out, you can select preferred dates and see available options and any extra charges.

Most tri-axle dump trucks used by our partners carry about 10 to 16 cubic yards of loose fill-dirt. On delivery day, expect the truck to require clear access (about 12 to 15 feet wide) and sufficient overhead clearance; the driver will assess safe drop locations and may tailgate dump at their discretion. If access is restricted, tell us ahead of time so we can arrange a smaller truck or alternate drop location and update the quote if needed.
