Fill Dirt in Parks, LA

Fill-dirt is typically less expensive per cubic yard than crushed gravel because it is natural soil rather than processed rock. Local price depends on supplier, haul distance, and moisture content in West Louisiana, so get an instant quote from Hello Gravel for exact delivered pricing to Parks.

Fill-dirt is soil with few rocks used to raise grade, fill holes, and build pads, while gravel is crushed rock used for drainage, driveways, and stable bases. For Parks projects, use fill-dirt to build up low spots and gravel when you need drainage or a driving surface.

Pricing varies by local supplier, truck distance, and current demand, so Hello Gravel provides real-time quotes for deliveries to Parks. Use our online calculator or request a quote to see the delivered price for a 10-yard load to your address.

Yes, you can add fill-dirt over existing soil to raise grade, but it should be placed in thin lifts and compacted to minimize future settling. In West Louisiana's wetter, clay-prone soils, proper compaction and attention to drainage are especially important to avoid pooling or uneven settling.

Volume equals area times depth: 20 ft x 12 ft at 2 inches (0.167 ft) is about 1.5 cubic yards of fill-dirt. Because weight and compaction vary, request a quote from Hello Gravel and allow a small extra amount for settling and compaction.

Yes, fill-dirt is commonly used to level yards and fill low spots, but you should remove turf and organic debris first, add fill in thin layers, and compact each layer. Given Parks' local soil and rainfall patterns, expect some settlement and plan final grading and drainage before planting or installing hardscape.

Typical tri-axle dump trucks serving Parks deliver about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose fill-dirt (roughly 12 to 15 tons), but actual truck capacity and load size depend on the local supplier. Hello Gravel shows the truck size and estimated quantity when you order; note our minimum order is 3 tons.

Permit requirements vary by city and parish; small landscape fills are often allowed but larger fills that change drainage, affect wetlands, or are in a floodplain may require permits. Check with your local Parks or parish permitting office before ordering and contact Hello Gravel if you need help coordinating delivery details.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request it at checkout but the driver will assess safety, access, and whether it can be done on arrival. Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading, so plan on renting equipment or hiring a contractor if you need precise grading.
