Fill Dirt in Kiowa, OK

Typical retail prices for fill-dirt in Kiowa and surrounding West Oklahoma vary by supplier and haul distance, but you can expect roughly $10 to $30 per ton for the material itself. Delivery fees depend on distance and access (often $50 to $200+), and Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; standard delivery is 2+ business days with a next-day option available for an extra fee if ordered before noon CST.

Use 1 cubic yard = about 1.3 tons as a working conversion for fill-dirt. Examples: raising a 12' x 100' driveway by 6" takes about 22 cubic yards (~29 tons); a 10' x 10' patio pad at 4" needs about 1.2 cubic yards (~1.6 tons) (note Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons); leveling a 50' x 50' yard by 3" requires about 23 cubic yards (~30 tons).

Fill-dirt is good for filling low spots and building grade but is not usually a structural driveway surface on clay soils. For a durable driveway on clay we recommend compactible, low-organic fill for the subgrade plus a compacted crushed-stone base (typically 4" to 6" of crushed rock) to improve drainage and load-bearing. Ask suppliers for 'clean' or 'select' fill-dirt (low organic content) and consider mixing or overlaying with crushed stone for best results.

Kiowa's hot summers and occasional freezes can cause clay-rich fill to expand, shrink, and settle if not properly compacted and drained. Good compaction, proper moisture control during placement, and positive surface drainage will reduce cracking and settling. Vegetation or erosion control is also important after placement to keep material in place during heavy rains.

Hello Gravel drivers may be able to tailgate spread material at their discretion, but compaction is usually a separate service provided by contractors. Many contractors charge extra to compact fill-dirt with a plate compactor or roller, so plan to arrange compaction ahead of time if you need it and confirm any fees with your contractor or during checkout.

Common alternatives include bank-run (unprocessed) dirt, screened topsoil, and various crushed stone products. In general cost rank is: fill-dirt often the least expensive, bank-run and screened topsoil in the middle, and crushed stone the most expensive per ton; rough regional ranges might be fill-dirt $10-$30/ton, bank-run $15-$35/ton, topsoil $20-$50/ton, and crushed stone $25-$60/ton. Choose based on function: topsoil for planting, fill-dirt for bulk fill, and crushed stone for structural bases and drainage.

For small residential fills you often do not need a permit, but requirements vary by city and county and depend on how much material you bring in and whether you change drainage or affect easements. Before large deliveries or grading work, check with Kiowa city hall or the local county building/zoning office to confirm permit and erosion-control requirements. If you are near a floodplain, right-of-way, or a conservation area, permits are more likely to be required.

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers near Kiowa who can deliver screened or unscreened fill-dirt to residential properties. Enter your zip code on our site to see available options, review material descriptions, and request photos or screen specs from suppliers before ordering. Always confirm delivery access and any additional fees for tight access or small-lot drops.

If properly placed, compacted, and drained, fill-dirt should be stable for several years, but some settling and minor washouts are common after the first rainy seasons or freeze-thaw cycles. Expect to check and occasionally top low spots within 1 to 3 years unless you use proper compaction and a crushed-stone wearing surface. Good drainage, edging, and vegetation will reduce how often you need to add material.

Most Hello Gravel deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that need clear access, space to turn, and a stable surface to avoid getting stuck; narrow gates, low overhead lines, soft shoulders, or private bridges can restrict deliveries or require smaller trucks at extra cost. Tell us about site access when ordering (driveway width, gate height, turn radius, weight-sensitive roads) so we can match the right truck and avoid surprises. Also be aware that saturated or frozen ground and local road weight limits may affect scheduling or truck selection.

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.
