Why Hearne Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hearne has a city population of 6,430 and sits within a West Texas region whose metro area population is 273,000. With modest growth of 0.20% annually and a climate that averages 215 sunny days and 36.00 inches of rain per year, homeowners and contractors must plan for both dry, sunbaked conditions and episodic heavy rainfall. That mix creates steady demand for materials that stabilize yards, level building pads, and rebuild berms after storms. Many Hearne homeowners seek quality aggregates like Fill Dirt to prevent settling, enable proper compaction, and prepare sites for landscaping, driveways, and small foundation work.Popular Projects in Hearne This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hearne Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Hearne.
Fill dirt is inert soil used to raise grade or fill voids; it should contain minimal organic matter and no large debris. In Hearne’s West Texas environment, fill dirt is appropriate for building up yard areas, backfilling foundations, and creating drive approaches, but it is not a finished surfacing material and usually needs a structural cap (gravel or crusher run) if it will receive traffic.
Prices vary by supplier, distance, and volume, but delivered fill dirt in the Hearne area commonly runs approximately $10 to $30 per ton. Delivery is often free in nearby areas for larger loads, but rural runs or difficult access can add surcharges of $50 to $200; Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days.
Yes — Hello Gravel works with a network of regional suppliers and haulers that service West Texas and the Hearne area; local availability depends on your zip code. Use our website to check your zip, get quotes, choose a delivery date, or call the team for help; we coordinate the supplier and truck so you get clear pricing and scheduling.
Fill dirt can be used, but Hearne’s clay-rich, potentially expansive soils require care: remove organic topsoil, use clean, low-organic fill, place in controlled lifts, and compact properly. For structures or driveways, consider geotechnical advice or an engineered fill plan because simply dumping loose fill on expansive clay can lead to future movement and cracking.
For a driveway subgrade, place fill dirt in 6- to 8-inch lifts and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller to typical field targets (often 90-95% of standard Proctor, per engineer specs). After the fill is compacted, add a 4- to 6-inch layer of crushed stone or crusher run as the wearing base; homeowners should plan on mechanical compaction rather than hand tamping for best long-term results.
A quick method: 1 cubic yard covers 324 square feet at 1 inch depth, so 1 inch over 1,000 sq ft equals about 3.09 cubic yards. Fill dirt typically weighs about 1.3 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard, so 1 inch over 1,000 sq ft is roughly 4 to 5 tons. For smaller areas: 100 sq ft at 1 inch is ~0.31 yd3 (0.4 to 0.5 tons) and 500 sq ft at 1 inch is ~1.54 yd3 (2 to 2.5 tons).
Permit requirements depend on the city, county, and any local HOA rules; small residential deliveries usually do not require a permit, but raising grade, altering drainage, or placing large volumes can trigger city or county review. Contact Hearne city planning or Robertson County offices before major fills, and check for floodplain, drainage, septic, or easement restrictions that could affect your project.
Fill dirt is intended as structural fill and subgrade, not as a wearing surface; crusher run and decomposed granite are superior for driveway surfaces because they compact well, shed water, and resist rutting. The typical approach in Hearne is compacted fill dirt subgrade topped with 3 to 6 inches of crusher run or 2 to 4 inches of decomposed granite for a finished driveway.
Expect some settlement, especially in the first 6 to 12 months after placement; typical settlement can be an inch or more depending on depth, compaction, and underlying soils. Inspect after heavy rains and during the first year and plan on spot re-grade or additional compacted fill where needed; proper initial compaction and drainage control reduce how often you need maintenance.
Hello Gravel’s standard lead time is 2+ business days with next-day available if ordered before noon CST; rural Hearne deliveries may incur additional mileage or access fees. Expect delivery by tri-axle dump truck, a 3-ton minimum, and note site access limits (low-hanging lines, narrow drives, soft ground) as drivers may refuse unsafe drops; request tailgate spreading at checkout but it is done at the driver’s discretion.
Choose clean fill with low organic content and a mix that includes some sand and small gravel to improve drainage and reduce washout; avoid high-silt or high-organic topsoil blends that erode easily. For slopes or erosion-prone areas, combine compacted structural fill with erosion control measures (straw, hydroseed, riprap, or geotextile) and consider engineered fill or surface stone to protect against heavy summer storms.
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.
