Why Granite Shoals Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Granite Shoals is a small but growing community (city population: 5,000) within a larger West Texas region (metro area population: 2.3+ million) experiencing steady expansion (growth rate: 1.80% annually). With a warm climate—hardiness zone 8b, about 230 sunny days per year, and annual rainfall near 31.00 inches—local landscaping and construction projects often focus on drought-tolerant planting, efficient grading, and reliable drainage. That steady growth drives demand for basic aggregate materials to level yards, build raised beds, backfill foundations, and correct low spots before new turf or hardscapes go in. Homeowners and small contractors in Granite Shoals look for simple, dependable materials like fill dirt because it provides an economical, compactable base that reduces settling and supports heavier layers above it.Popular Projects in Granite Shoals This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Granite Shoals Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Granite Shoals.
Delivered fill dirt prices in the Granite Shoals/West Texas area typically range by supplier and haul distance. Expect roughly $12 to $30 per ton (about $15 to $40 per cubic yard) for ordinary screened fill dirt, with final price depending on volume, distance, and any grading or spreading requests.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order, and many local suppliers have similar small-quantity options. For big landscaping or site projects, suppliers often lower the per-ton price on full truckloads (10-14 tons or more), so ask about volume pricing when you quote.
Fill dirt converts roughly 1 cubic yard = 1.2 to 1.4 tons depending on moisture and compaction. For 100 square feet: 2" depth ≈ 0.62 cubic yards (≈0.8 to 0.9 tons), 4" ≈ 1.23 cubic yards (≈1.5 to 1.7 tons), and 6" ≈ 1.85 cubic yards (≈2.2 to 2.6 tons).
Fill dirt is good for raising grade and filling low spots, but it is not an ideal finished surface for driveways or a final planting layer. In hot, drought-prone Granite Shoals, fill dirt can shrink and settle if not properly compacted and capped; use engineered road base or crushed stone over compacted fill for driveways and topsoil for planting beds.
On clay-heavy subsoils common in parts of Texas, plain fill dirt drains slowly and can hold water, increasing settlement risk. For improved drainage and stability, add a layer of crushed stone or sand below the surface, install drainpipe or swales where needed, and use geotextile fabric to separate fill from weak clay layers.
Permits may be required for large grading projects, earthwork that affects drainage, or work in regulated zones; Granite Shoals and Burnet County both have rules that can apply. Before ordering bulk fill dirt for major site changes, check with the City of Granite Shoals Planning/Building Department or Burnet County Permits to confirm permit thresholds and any erosion control requirements.
Compact fill dirt in thin lifts (4" to 6") using a plate compactor for small jobs or a vibratory roller for larger areas, and condition moisture before compaction for best results. Proper compaction plus a cap of road base or crushed stone and good surface drainage will greatly reduce future settling and erosion.
A properly compacted fill layer capped with road base and well-drained will serve for decades with routine maintenance, like occasional regrading or topping after heavy storms. If fill dirt is not compacted or capped, expect more frequent settling and patching; small maintenance usually requires a minor material top-up every few years depending on traffic and weather.
Fill dirt is best for raising grade and filling voids but is not load-bearing or good for plant growth as the final surface. Use road base or crushed stone for driveways and building pads because they compact well and shed water; use topsoil (not fill dirt) for garden beds and lawns since it supports plant roots and retains nutrients.
Hello Gravel standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Lead times can vary by supplier and season, so confirm delivery windows at checkout and add order notes for preferred dates or spreading requests.
Drivers may be able to provide tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this service at checkout. Because spreading depends on site access and safety, Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading, so plan to rent equipment or hire a local contractor if precise placement and compaction are required.
Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and haulers in the Granite Shoals/West Texas area and handles scheduling and delivery logistics. For installation, ask for contractor references, check licensing and insurance, and get multiple quotes; local landscaping companies, excavation contractors, and the county extension office can also provide referrals.
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.
