Why Angleton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Angleton is a growing West Texas city with a population of 30,347, sitting inside a metro area of 2.3+ million and expanding at a rate of 1.80% annually. With 228 sunny days a year, an average of 33.00 inches of rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners and builders face a mix of sun-driven drying and occasional heavy rains that influence soil stability and landscaping choices. That steady population growth and ongoing residential development are driving demand for basic site-preparation materials—grading, raising low spots, and preparing building pads—so homeowners increasingly seek reliable aggregates that match local soil conditions and drainage needs. Quality fill materials help prevent settlement, direct water away from foundations, and create a stable base for patios, driveways, and retaining walls, which is why good fill dirt matters in Angleton projects. Fill Dirt is a practical choice for many Angleton jobs because it is typically composed of subsoil with low organic content that compacts well and resists washout in our sun-and-rain climate. In a place that gets both intense sun and periodic rainfall, compactable fill dirt provides stable support for regrading, foundation backfill, and building up low areas before final topsoil is added. Hello Gravel connects homeowners with local suppliers and haulers who understand Angleton’s soils and climate, offering transparent pricing, scheduled dump-truck delivery, and guidance on quantities and delivery timing (standard 2+ business days; next-day option available before noon CST for an extra fee). Tell our team about site access and desired delivery date so suppliers can match the right fill dirt for your project.Popular Projects in Angleton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Angleton Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Angleton.
Fill dirt is native soil used to raise or level ground; it usually contains fines and clay and has little organic matter. In Angleton you commonly use it for grading, raising low spots, backfill around foundations, and creating pads before a structural base is added. It is not usually a finished surface for driveways or landscaping without a top layer of gravel or topsoil.
Prices vary by supplier, truck size, and distance, but a typical delivered range for basic fill dirt in the Angleton area is commonly between $15 and $40 per ton. Exact pricing depends on local availability, moisture content, and load minimums; get a quote through Hello Gravel to see live pricing for your zip code.
A good rule of thumb is about 1.2 to 1.4 short tons per cubic yard for fill dirt; Hello Gravel uses 1.3 tons per cubic yard for estimates. To convert: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324, then multiply cubic yards by 1.3 to get tons. For example, 1,000 sq ft at 6 inches is about 18.5 cubic yards or roughly 24 tons.
Plain fill dirt can help build grade but may not perform well on its own over expansive clay because it can settle or retain moisture. For projects where compaction and stability matter (driveways, foundations, slabs), contractors often prefer engineered fill or a compactable base like crush-and-run. If you use fill dirt, choose clean, low-organic material and plan for proper compaction and drainage.
Fill dirt with high clay content drains slowly and can hold water after heavy rain, which is a concern in Angleton’s coastal plain climate. To improve drainage, use granular fill or mix-in sand, install proper grading and swales, and consider sub-surface drains or gravel layers under areas that need to shed water quickly. Expect some settling after heavy rains and plan follow-up grading.
First compute cubic yards using: (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. Then convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by about 1.3. For example, a 20 ft x 40 ft pad at 8 inches is 800 x 8 / 324 = about 19.75 cubic yards or roughly 26 tons.
Hello Gravel has a minimum order (typically 3 tons) and standard delivery is scheduled 2+ business days with a next-day option for orders before noon CST for an extra fee. Access restrictions that may add fees include narrow driveways, low overhead wires, soft ground that prevents truck access, long offload distances, or permits required for street blocking—note these when ordering so the hauler can plan.
Fill dirt is suitable for grading and raising elevations but is not ideal as a structural driving surface. For driveways and structural pads in Angleton, contractors usually recommend engineered fill or crush-and-run because those materials compact better and provide a stable base. Use fill dirt beneath those engineered layers only after proper testing and compaction.
Place fill dirt in lifts of no more than 6 to 8 inches and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller to reach specified density. Moisture conditioning helps: slightly damp soil compacts better, but avoid working saturated soil after heavy rain. For critical projects, have a contractor or geotechnical report specify lift thickness and compaction targets.
City or Brazoria County requirements may apply for large grading changes, drainage alterations, or work near floodplains and easements. Before major grading or changing lot drainage, contact the Angleton Building Department or county offices to check permitting and setback rules. Simple backyard raises under a few cubic yards usually do not require permits, but always confirm locally.
Expect some initial settling over the first year, especially after heavy rains, and plan for final grading and additional top-off loads if needed. For landscaped areas, add topsoil and seed or sod after settling; for functional areas, monitor drainage and regrade low spots as required. Proper compaction and drainage control will reduce long-term maintenance and improve longevity.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
