Why Haltom City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Haltom City, with a population of 27,570, sits inside the Dallas–Fort Worth region and is experiencing steady, measured growth (0.50% annually). Local homeowners and contractors work in a North Texas climate that averages 232 sunny days per year and about 37.00 inches of rainfall and falls in USDA hardiness zone 8a—conditions that affect soil moisture, erosion risk, and long-term yard stability. Proximity to a metro area of 7.5+ million helps keep construction and renovation activity consistent, so the need for dependable fill materials is ongoing. Homeowners reach for quality fill dirt to raise low spots, create level pads for sheds and patios, backfill foundations, and regrade yards for better drainage—tasks where proper material selection and compaction can prevent settling and standing water over time.Popular Projects in Haltom City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Haltom City Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Haltom City.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Haltom City commonly range, depending on source and moisture, from about $10 to $30 per ton (roughly $12 to $40 per cubic yard). Prices vary with local availability, haul distance, and whether material is screened or contains clay, so use Hello Gravel's quote tool or request a delivered price for your zip code.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons; most local suppliers deliver by tri-axle dump truck (common for residential jobs). Smaller or closer loads usually have no extra fee, but longer hauls, tight access, or next-day requests can add a trucking or fuel surcharge typically ranging from about $50 to $200; large jobs may use semi trailers with lower per-ton haul costs.
For structural work in clay-prone Haltom City, use clean, non-organic fill with a maximum rock size under 3 inches and limited organics; engineered or structural fill is preferred. Compact in 6" to 8" lifts to at least 90% to 95% of Standard Proctor (ASTM D698) or to project-engineer specs, and have critical pads tested if building a home or garage.
One cubic yard fills 324 square feet at 1 inch depth, so calculate volume as (area in sqft * depth in inches) / 324. Typical fill dirt weighs about 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard, so multiply cubic yards by that density to get tons; for example, a 200 sqft driveway at 6" needs about 3.7 yd3 or roughly 4.5 to 5.5 tons.
Small residential deliveries and minor yard leveling usually do not require city permits, but large grading projects, changes to drainage, retaining walls, or work that alters runoff often do. Contact Haltom City Development Services (or Tarrant County for unincorporated areas) before major fills to confirm permit thresholds, erosion controls, and inspection requirements.
Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and haulers in the Haltom City area who deliver bulk fill dirt, and we can recommend local landscapers or earthwork contractors for installation. For installation work, ask contractors for references, proof of insurance, and compaction testing for larger pads to ensure compliance with local building needs.
In Haltom City’s hot summers, heavy summer rains, and occasional freezes, bare fill dirt compacts well but can retain water and swell if it has a high clay content, which risks settling or heaving. Crusher run provides a more stable, well-draining base for driveways, while decomposed granite is better for walking paths and aesthetics but not as good for structural base work.
If properly compacted and capped with a finished surface (gravel, pavers, or pavement), a fill-dirt base can last for many years with routine maintenance; uncovered fill used for yard leveling will settle and typically requires top-ups and regrading over the first 1 to 3 seasons. Expect occasional touch-ups after heavy rains and plan for vegetation or edging to prevent erosion.
For a small residential driveway or shed pad, contractor pricing to prepare and compact a base typically ranges from a few hundred to about $1,200 depending on scope, access, and testing needs; do-it-yourself rental options (plate compactor or small roller) often run $70 to $400 per day for equipment. Compaction itself can be done in a day or two for typical projects, but drying, testing, and additional lifts can extend the schedule.
Use fill dirt when you need inexpensive bulk elevation or to bring grade up, but expect poorer drainage and possible shrink-swell if the soil is clay-rich. Crushed limestone or crusher run is usually the best choice for driveway bases because it compacts to a firm, draining surface, while sand drains well but does not provide a strong compacted base for vehicular loads; often a combination—fill for bulk, crusher run as a cap—is the most cost-effective approach.

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.
