Why Belton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Belton is a growing West Texas city with a city population of 39,730 and an annual growth rate of 0.80%. With 228 sunny days each year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners and builders face a climate that supports year-round outdoor work but also requires attention to drainage and soil stability. That steady regional growth drives demand for routine grading, lot prep, and foundation backfill for new landscaping and housing improvements. Homeowners seek reliable, consistent aggregates because the right fill dirt reduces future settlement, improves drainage, and creates stable bases for patios, driveways, retaining walls, and raised planting beds.Popular Projects in Belton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Belton Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Belton.
In Belton, delivered fill dirt usually ranges from about $12 to $30 per ton, depending on supplier, distance, and quality. Per cubic yard expect roughly $15 to $40 because one cubic yard of loose fill dirt generally equals about 1.1 to 1.3 tons; use 1.2 tons per cubic yard as a conservative rule of thumb. Exact pricing is available when you enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a local quote.
Belton homes typically source fill dirt from local dirt yards, landscaping suppliers, and regional aggregate haulers serving Bell County and the Temple-Belton area. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, so place an order or request a quote and we will match you with nearby vendors and contractors familiar with Belton conditions.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which is standard for residential dump truck deliveries in Belton. Delivery fees vary; many local orders have free or low-cost delivery, while long hauls or tight-access jobs may incur additional charges typically between $0 and $75. Most residential deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so check access for width, height, and turning radius before delivery and note any obstacles in your order notes.
Belton’s soils often include clay that can shrink, swell, and hold moisture, which affects settling and compaction behavior. Because of that, fill dirt in the area usually needs proper moisture control and compaction in lifts to limit future settling, and clay presence may benefit from mixing with granular material for drainage. Plan for tighter compaction specifications if you are correcting grades near foundations or fixing drainage problems.
Rules vary by project and location, so check with the City of Belton Planning or Public Works before adding large volumes of fill that change grade or affect drainage. Small landscaping fills are often allowed, but projects that alter stormwater flow, affect neighboring properties, or exceed certain heights may require a permit or plan review. Contact your local permitting office early to confirm requirements and avoid rework.
For yard leveling or driveway subgrade work in Belton, compact fill dirt in 4- to 8-inch lifts using a vibratory plate compactor for small areas, or a ride-on roller for larger jobs. Moisture conditioning is important—material should be slightly damp for best compaction results in local clay soils. If the area will carry traffic, consider specifying compaction targets and hiring a contractor with compaction testing equipment.
Measure the area in feet, multiply length by width by desired depth in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards (volume = L x W x D / 27). Convert cubic yards to tons by multiplying by about 1.1 to 1.3 (use 1.2 tons per cubic yard as a practical estimate). Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team for a project-specific estimate and margin for compaction and settlement.
If fill dirt is used as a top layer without stabilization, expect more settling, erosion, and rutting, so plan on periodic topping and regrading every 1 to 3 years depending on use and rainfall. For long-term driveway or traffic areas, place a compacted granular base (road base or crusher run) over or instead of loose fill dirt to reduce maintenance. For landscaping, add topsoil and vegetation to stabilize slopes and limit erosion in West Texas weather.
Use fill dirt for non-structural grade building, landscape backfill, and raising low spots where structural support is not required. Choose crusher run or road base for driveways and areas that need load-bearing capacity and better drainage, because these aggregates compact and lock together and perform better under traffic. For foundations, retaining walls, or areas with significant load or sensitive drainage, use engineered fill specified by an engineer for Belton’s clay soils.
Yes. Spring and fall are generally best for placing and compacting fill dirt in Belton because moderate temperatures and lower storm frequency make moisture control easier. Avoid major fills during heavy summer heat, which can make clay soils too dry and difficult to compact, and avoid rainy periods that can leave fills saturated and slow down work. Schedule deliveries with local weather in mind and allow extra time for rain delays during wet months.
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.
