Why Daingerfield Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Daingerfield, Texas (population 4,500) sits within a steadily growing West Texas metro (2.5+ million) and is seeing modest development at a 0.48% annual growth rate. The local climate—hardiness zone 8a with about 217 sunny days per year and 46.24 inches of annual rainfall—creates a mix of sun exposure and periodic moisture that shapes yard grading and foundation needs. Homeowners and small contractors are frequently tackling projects like driveway bases, raised beds, small additions, and drainage corrections that require dependable earthwork. Quality fill dirt is a go-to material for raising grade, backfilling foundations, and stabilizing low spots because it compacts well and reduces long-term settling when installed correctly. With ongoing local development and weather cycles that can cause erosion, sourcing consistent fill dirt helps projects finish on time and avoids repeated fix-up work.Popular Projects in Daingerfield This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Daingerfield Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Daingerfield.
In small West Texas towns like Daingerfield, delivered fill dirt commonly falls in a wide range because of distance, supplier, and truck access. Expect roughly $10 to $35 per ton (or about $8 to $25 per cubic yard) as a ballpark; exact pricing will depend on haul distance, whether the site is easy to reach, and moisture or screening. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers standard 2+ business day delivery with next-day options for orders placed before noon CST, which can affect price.
Daingerfield-area soils often include clayey and silty subsoils that hold moisture and can shrink or swell with wet-dry cycles, affecting settlement and drainage. Before large fills, check existing soil (test holes or a soil test) because clay-rich native soils may need drainage or mixing to prevent long-term movement. Regional sourcing means the fill you get will reflect local geology, so expect color and texture variation.
Typical small projects use modest amounts: a 10' x 10' patio at 6" depth needs about 2.0 to 2.5 tons of fill dirt, while a 20' x 100' driveway subgrade raise of 4" can require 60 to 80 tons. Yard grading and small hill builds commonly run 5 to 50 tons depending on scope; larger regrading or lot raises can be several hundred tons. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or provide dimensions to our team for a site-specific estimate.
Yes—fill dirt should be compacted in lifts to reduce settlement and improve stability. For small homeowner jobs in Daingerfield use a plate compactor or jumping jack on 4" to 6" lifts; for larger fills use a small vibratory roller. For structural or driveway subgrades contractors commonly aim for roughly 90% to 95% of standard Proctor density; a local engineer can specify exact targets for critical work.
Fill dirt is intended as bulk subgrade or to raise grades, not as a wear surface; it does not compact as well or shed water like crushed limestone or road base. For driveways and erosion-prone slopes, use fill dirt as the subsoil layer and top with a compactable base (road base or crushed limestone) for strength, drainage, and erosion resistance. Road base or crushed stone will dramatically improve load-bearing and reduce maintenance compared with bare fill dirt.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks. In small towns like Daingerfield there may be additional charges for long hauls, limited access (narrow driveways, low-hanging lines), or if a permit is required for trucks to enter the property; free delivery is available in many areas but not guaranteed. Provide clear drop-off instructions and photos at checkout to help avoid access fees, and our team will confirm any special charges before dispatch.
Permit and HOA rules vary by project type and location; many small-scale residential deliveries in towns like Daingerfield do not require a permit, but retaining walls, large grade changes, or work in public right-of-way often do. Check with Daingerfield city offices and your HOA before ordering to confirm local grading, drainage, and permit rules. If in doubt, contact our sales team and we can advise next steps and point you to local authority contacts.
For backfill behind foundations give at least 6" of compacted granular material immediately adjacent to walls and slope soil away from structures at about 2% (roughly 1/4" per foot) to carry water away. For patios, place 4" to 6" of compacted fill dirt as subgrade, then install a 3" to 4" aggregate base before the finish surface. On slopes bench and compact in layers, use erosion controls (straw, mats, seed) and consider geotextile or drainage swales for persistent runoff in West Texas weather.
Clear the drop zone of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles and mark utilities and desired pile location before delivery; taking photos and notes at checkout helps drivers. On delivery day, expect a tri-axle dump truck to deliver material onto your driveway or designated area; tailgate spreading may be possible but is at the driver’s discretion. If access is restricted or special placement is required, tell our team ahead of time so we can arrange appropriate equipment or fees.
Yes, drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and you can request it at checkout, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. For consistent spreading or precision placement, book local equipment (bobcat, skid steer, or loader) and a contractor, and note those needs when ordering so we can coordinate with the supplier and driver. Any extra handling or equipment fees will be communicated before delivery.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
