Why Canadian Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Canadian is a West Texas town of 3,160 and part of a metro area of 2.7+ million. With a steady annual growth rate of 1.00% and a climate that averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain per year in USDA hardiness zone 8b, homeowners and local contractors are increasingly taking on grading, yard rework, and foundation backfill projects. That steady growth and seasonal precipitation pattern creates demand for dependable bulk materials that provide stable compaction, reliable drainage, and predictable performance. Homeowners seek quality Fill Dirt to raise low spots, support new patios and driveways, and provide a consistent base for lawns and landscaping—reducing the chance of future settlement and rework when installed correctly.Popular Projects in Canadian This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Canadian Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Canadian.
Yes. In West Texas markets like Canadian, fill dirt is generally less expensive per ton than decorative or crushed gravels because it is a basic soil product with less processing. Prices still vary by local supplier, haul distance, and season, so request a quote on Hello Gravel to see current local pricing.
Fill dirt is primarily soil, often with clay, silt, or locally common caliche, used to raise grades and backfill. Gravel is crushed rock or rounded stone used for drainage, structural base, and wearing surfaces; unlike gravel, fill dirt does not provide reliable drainage or a stable driving surface without further preparation.
Fill dirt in the Canadian area often reflects West Texas soils and may contain caliche nodules, clay, and sand. Expect variations in color and texture by supplier; you can add color preferences in your order notes, but exact matches are not guaranteed due to regional sourcing.
Hello Gravel commonly uses tri-axle dump trucks that carry about 10 to 12 tons of fill dirt per load, depending on local truck rules. Cost depends on the supplier price per ton and delivery distance; for example, if local fill dirt is $20/ton, a 10-ton load would be about $200 plus delivery—request a quote for exact pricing.
Multiply area by depth to get cubic feet, then convert to cubic yards. For example, 1,000 sq ft at a 6-inch depth equals 500 cubic feet, or about 18.5 cubic yards; that typically weighs roughly 22 to 28 tons depending on moisture and local soil composition—use Hello Gravel's calculator for a precise estimate.
It depends on the driveway length, width, and how much grade you need to raise. As an example: a 20 ft by 20 ft area at 4 inches deep requires about 6 cubic yards (roughly 7 to 9 tons); for an accurate quantity, measure your actual length and desired fill depth and use our material calculator or request help from our team.
You can place gravel directly on native dirt, but in Canadian's soils that can lead to mixing, rutting, and poor drainage over time. For best results, use compacted fill dirt or an aggregate base to level and stabilize the area, and consider a geotextile fabric if soft or wet patches are present.
Yes for most structural or load-bearing uses, fill dirt should be compacted in layers (lifts) to reduce settling. Contractors typically use plate compactors or rollers; homeowners can rent a plate compactor for smaller projects. Hello Gravel drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but compacting is usually a separate service.
Not on its own. Fill dirt will not harden like concrete; if you need a hard surface, options include soil-cement stabilization or a compacted aggregate base topped with concrete or asphalt. Consult a local contractor to determine if soil stabilization is appropriate for your Canadian site and permits.
Yes. Fresh fill dirt can contain weed seeds and unstable fines that settle over time; applying mulch directly on loose fill may hide settling and lead to uneven planting beds. Let new fill settle and compact or add a thin topsoil layer before applying mulch for landscaping in Canadian yards.
No. Fill dirt is a soil product with a mix of particle sizes and organic content, not a graded crushed stone like G1 or 3/4" gravel. If you need a specific gradation for drainage or compaction, ask our team for an engineered base material instead of fill dirt.
Pea gravel is loose and drains well, so it is not suitable as structural fill or for areas that need to be compacted for support. For raising grade or building a base under driveways and slabs in Canadian, choose compactible fill dirt or a crushed aggregate base rather than pea gravel.
Often yes—fill dirt is typically one of the least expensive bulk materials because it requires minimal processing. However, regional factors like caliche availability and haul distance will influence final cost; get a local quote via Hello Gravel to compare materials for your project.
Avoid piling deep fill over tree roots; a common guideline is to keep added fill to 2 to 3 inches near established trunks and to taper fill away from the root zone. If you must raise grade more than a few inches near trees in Canadian, consult an arborist to reduce stress to trees before placing large amounts of fill dirt.

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.
