Why Timber Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Timber Lake has a city population of 6,860 and sits in a moderate, steadily expanding region with a 2.80% annual growth rate. With 228/year sunny days, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and hardiness zone 8b, local yards and streets face a mix of sun and periodic wet conditions that influence how soil and aggregates perform. That steady growth means more homeowners are taking on grading, foundation backfill, driveway rebuilds, and utility trench projects. For these jobs, quality fill dirt—clean, low-organic material designed to compact well—is essential to avoid future settlement, maintain proper grades, and protect landscaping investments.Popular Projects in Timber Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Timber Lake Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Timber Lake.
Delivered fill dirt in Timber Lake commonly ranges from about $10 to $35 per ton depending on supplier, haul distance, and whether the material is screened or blended. Smaller orders, steep driveways, or long hauls can increase delivery fees; Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days.
Choose a dense, well-graded fill dirt with low organic content for structural fills and leveling in Timber Lake’s clay-prone soils. For driveways, use fill dirt only as a compacted subgrade and follow it with a crushed-stone base to prevent rutting and drainage problems.
Estimate volume then convert to tons: area (sq ft) × depth (ft) = cubic feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by 1.2–1.6 tons per cubic yard (use 1.4 tons/yd3 for a quick estimate). For example, raising 1,000 sq ft by 2 inches is about 6.2 cubic yards, or roughly 8.6 tons using 1.4 tons/yd3.
Hello Gravel drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. For reliable spreading and proper mechanical compaction in Timber Lake’s clay soils, hire a local contractor or request compaction as a separate service.
Untreated fill dirt can erode and settle in heavy rain and may expand or shrink in freeze-thaw cycles if it contains a lot of clay. Properly placed in thin lifts and well-compacted, with attention to drainage (swales, drains, or stone layers), fill dirt performs much better in Timber Lake’s climate.
Typical dump trucks used by suppliers are tri-axle or similar and carry roughly 10–14 cubic yards (actual tonnage varies by material weight). Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; standard delivery takes 2+ business days and next-day delivery is an option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees depend on distance and site access; some areas qualify for free delivery.
Fill dirt is usually cheaper per ton than crushed stone or quality topsoil, but it is not a good finished surface for driveways. For driveway repair, use fill dirt only to build or correct subgrade elevation, then cap with crushed stone or gravel designed for vehicular traffic for lasting performance.
Fill dirt can be used to build grade and backfill, but it is not a long-term erosion-control surface on steep slopes. To prevent erosion in Timber Lake’s rainy climate combine fill dirt with erosion controls like hydroseed, erosion blankets, terraces, retaining walls, or a wearing surface such as crushed stone.
Permit requirements vary by town, county, and any applicable HOA; small landscaping fills often do not need permits, but large fills, grading near waterways, or changes to stormwater patterns may. Check local building and zoning offices before ordering large volumes or altering drainage to avoid fines or remediation orders.
Fill dirt will settle the most during the first 6–12 months, with additional minor settling possible after heavy rain events; expect to regrade low spots once or twice in the first year. For long-term stability in Timber Lake, compact in lifts during installation, provide proper drainage, and cover with topsoil and vegetation or a stone surface depending on use.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
