Why Floresville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Floresville, with a city population of 21,110, is experiencing steady growth at 1.15% annually, creating ongoing demand for home improvements and new construction. The local climate — 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a plant hardiness zone of 8b — supports outdoor projects year-round but also requires materials that handle sun, seasonal rain, and reactive soils. Homeowners and contractors in Floresville commonly need bulk materials for grading lots, raising low spots, backfilling foundations, and preparing landscape beds. Quality Fill Dirt matters here because consistent compaction and low organic content reduce settlement and drainage problems, protecting driveways, patios, and foundations. Clear quantity guidance and scheduled delivery make projects easier for DIYers, while contractors rely on dependable supply and local sourcing to keep jobs on schedule.Popular Projects in Floresville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Floresville Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Floresville.
Fill dirt is subsoil used to raise or level ground and typically contains clay, sand, and rock but little organic matter. Topsoil is rich in organic material and used for planting; do not substitute fill dirt where plants need nutrient-rich soil, especially in Floresville where local topsoil and caliche can differ from delivered fill.
Prices vary by supplier, truck size, and delivery distance, but in Floresville fill dirt commonly ranges about $15 to $35 per cubic yard delivered. A typical tri-axle load (10 to 14 cubic yards loose) often runs roughly $150 to $500 delivered; get an exact quote on Hello Gravel by entering your zip code.
A common tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards loose, while smaller trucks carry less; 1 cubic yard of fill dirt typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on moisture and composition. To calculate needs, measure area (ft) x depth (ft) / 27 to get cubic yards, then add 10-20% for settlement and compaction before ordering.
No, fill dirt does not harden like concrete. Properly compacted fill can become firm and support landscaping or non-structural loads, but it will not reach the strength of concrete and engineered fill or base material is required for structural applications.
Do not use fill dirt as a planting medium or as the final surface for lawns and gardens because it lacks organic matter. Avoid using loose fill dirt next to foundations, on steep slopes, or in poorly drained low spots without proper engineering and drainage in Floresville's clay and caliche soils.
Fill dirt is fine for building up grades, filling low spots, and under hardscape, but for planting you should top with several inches of topsoil or a planting mix. In Floresville's region, local fill may contain caliche or heavy clay so plan to amend or cap with quality topsoil for gardens and lawns.
Spread fill dirt in thin lifts (4 to 8 inches) and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller to reduce settlement. For driveways and structural backfill, use engineered fill or a compactable base course and consult a contractor in Floresville for compaction specs to meet load and drainage needs.
Yes, local fill dirt in Floresville may include caliche and clay because of regional geology; these materials are heavier and can be slow to drain. Caliche can make the material harder when dry but cause poor drainage when wet, so factor that into drainage planning and compaction.
Yes, always contact 811 to locate underground utilities before any digging or placing of large fill quantities, and check Floresville and Wilson County codes for grading or drainage permits. If your project affects property drainage, a permit or engineering review may be required.
A 50 lb bag holds roughly 0.02 cubic yards (about 0.54 cubic feet). That covers about 6.5 square feet at 1 inch depth, so for most yard projects you will need bulk fill ordered by the cubic yard rather than many small bags.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color and texture can vary; contact customer service promptly if the material looks different than expected. For order changes or cancellations reach out as soon as possible—Hello Gravel will do its best to accommodate requests before the order is processed or dispatched.

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.
