Why Converse Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Converse, West Texas, is a growing community with a city population of 58,520 and part of a metro area of 2.7+ million, expanding at a steady rate of 0.70% annually. That steady growth, combined with ongoing infrastructure and residential development, is driving steady demand for basic construction and landscaping materials—especially reliable fill dirt for grading, utility backfill, and landscape leveling. Converse's climate and geography shape those needs: the area averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall and sits in hardiness zone 8b, so drainage and compaction are top concerns. Homeowners in Converse typically look for clean, low-organic fill dirt that compacts predictably, resists washout, and supports long-term grades; they also value accurate quantity estimates and dependable delivery to avoid project delays and extra hauling.Popular Projects in Converse This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Converse Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Converse.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Converse typically fall in a range because of supplier, distance, and site access. Expect roughly $12 to $20 per ton delivered for common non-engineered fill dirt in West Texas, though jobs with long haul, difficult access, or special screening can be higher. For an exact price, get a quote through Hello Gravel with your zip code and delivery details.
For West Texas clay, use a free-draining structural fill or a sandy/silty fill blend rather than pure clay to limit shrink-swell and drainage problems. For driveways and pads, place 4 to 6 inches of crushed rock or compacted gravel over the fill and consider a geotextile to separate clay from aggregate. If you need a structural base for a building or slab, use engineered fill specified by an engineer.
Raising 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches is about 250 cubic feet, or roughly 9.3 cubic yards. Fill dirt in West Texas typically weighs about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard, so you would need about 10 to 12 tons. We recommend ordering about 10-15% extra to allow for compaction and grading, so plan on roughly 11 to 14 tons and note Hello Gravel minimums (3 tons) when ordering.
Compact fill dirt in uniform lifts of 4 to 6 inches using a plate compactor or roller until it is firm and does not visibly settle. Proper compaction and moisture control are critical in hot West Texas weather because dry clay can shrink and loose material can wash out during storms. For driveways, place a compacted structural fill base then a 3 to 6 inch layer of crushed rock for wear and drainage.
Fill dirt is best for bulk grading and raising elevation because it is cheaper and available in large volumes, but it is not designed as a wearing surface. Crushed limestone (or crushed rock) is a better choice for driveway surfaces and structural pads because it compacts well, drains better, and resists rutting. A common approach in Converse is to use fill dirt to bring grades to level and then cover with crushed limestone or gravel for the driveway surface.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers in West Texas who deliver fill dirt; many partners can also recommend local compaction or equipment rental providers. Request delivery and add order notes about access or compaction needs, and our team can assist with recommendations or quotes for additional services.
Possibly. City of Converse rules, relevant county regulations, and HOA covenants may have requirements for grading, driveway surfacing, setbacks, or visible changes to your lot. Before ordering, check with the City of Converse, your county planning office, and your HOA to confirm permit or surfacing requirements, and keep documentation in case of inspection.
Fill dirt alone can be vulnerable to erosion in heavy rain and to shrinkage or cracking during drought, especially if it contains clay common to West Texas. Proper grading to shed water, good compaction, and a protective surface (gravel, turf, or erosion control matting) will greatly reduce washout and settlement problems. For projects exposed to weather, plan erosion control and drainage before delivery.
Hello Gravel typically has a 3-ton minimum order and uses tri-axle dump trucks for delivery. Ensure a clear access path of about 12 to 15 feet wide and adequate turning space plus 14 to 16 feet vertical clearance; for tight or remote sites we may coordinate smaller trucks or alternate drop locations which can affect price. Always include access notes at checkout and our team will confirm truck size and placement before dispatch.
When properly compacted and protected with a wearing surface, fill dirt used for grading can remain stable for many years; underlays for structures can be permanent if engineered correctly. Exposed fill used for driveways or landscaping may need occasional regrading or replenishment every 3 to 7 years depending on traffic, erosion, and rainfall. Good compaction, drainage, and a gravel or vegetation cover extend the interval between maintenance.
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.
