Fill Dirt in Minco, OK

Fill-dirt in Minco generally refers to locally sourced soil used to raise grade, fill low spots, or build up subgrades. It usually contains a mix of fines, sand, and small rock rather than a clean topsoil, and it is intended as structural or leveling material rather than planting soil.

For 100 square feet: 2" is about 0.62 cubic yards (roughly 0.7 tons), 4" is about 1.23 cubic yards (roughly 1.5 tons), and 6" is about 1.85 cubic yards (roughly 2.2 tons). These are estimates using a common local density; order slightly more to allow for compaction and settling.

Prices vary with local supply, trucking distance, and moisture, but in West Oklahoma you can expect delivered fill-dirt to commonly fall in the approximate range of $8 to $20 per ton. For an exact cost for your address and quantity, get a quote through Hello Gravel since rates and delivery fees can change by zip code.

There is no single national gradation for fill-dirt; local projects often use terms like 'borrow', 'select fill', or 'structural fill'. For engineered work in Oklahoma you may see project-specific specs from a geotech or references to Oklahoma DOT language; for landscaping, fill-dirt typically contains mostly fines with some sand and small gravel.

Small residential deliveries usually do not need a permit, but larger grading jobs, changes to drainage, or work in regulated areas may require permits or erosion control plans from Grady County or the City of Minco. Contact Minco City Hall or Grady County planning before major grading to confirm local rules and avoid fines.

Hot, dry summers can make fill-dirt loose and dusty unless watered and compacted, while occasional freeze-thaw cycles in winter can cause minor heaving if the material is wet or poorly compacted. Proper staged compaction and moisture control during placement helps reduce settling and seasonal movement in Minco's climate.

Common alternatives are crusher run/road base (crushed stone mixed with fines) and topsoil for planting. Crusher run is better for driveways because it compacts and drains well but costs more than fill-dirt; topsoil is best for lawns and gardens but is not suitable as a structural subbase. Choose based on function: fill-dirt for bulk grade work, crusher run for a stable driveway base, topsoil for planting.

Hello Gravel typically uses tri-axle dump trucks; the minimum order is 3 tons. Rural Minco properties may face narrow driveways, low branches, weight-restricted county roads, or delicate culverts that can require rerouting, offloading further from the drop point, or additional fees. Share photos and access notes at checkout to help us match a suitable hauler and avoid surprises.

Remove organic topsoil, put fill-dirt in 4- to 6-inch lifts, and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller until it is firm. For driveways or structures, follow any engineer or contractor specifications; aim for staged compaction and proper drainage to avoid future settling in Minco's soils and seasonal weather.

When properly placed and compacted as a subgrade under a crushed stone base and pavement, fill-dirt can perform for decades. If used as a surface layer or poorly compacted, expect settlement and minor replenishment or grading within 1 to 5 years, especially after heavy rains or freezing cycles.

Local suppliers and haulers serving Minco are usually based in Grady County and nearby towns like Chickasha and El Reno; availability depends on seasonal demand and quarry schedules. Hello Gravel can check local inventory and typically offers standard delivery in 2+ business days or next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST when local suppliers have stock.

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.
