Why Hurst Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hurst has a city population of 39,030 and sits inside a growing West Texas metro with a metro area population of 2.5+ million and an annual growth rate of 0.70%. The local climate — 228 sunny days annually, an annual rainfall of 34.32 inches, and hardiness zone 8b — supports active outdoor projects but also creates soil-management needs. Seasonal rain events can cause settling and erosion while long stretches of sun drive surface drying and compaction differences. As housing and landscaping projects expand, homeowners and contractors increasingly seek reliable, predictable materials to raise grades, fill low spots, and prepare level pads for patios, sheds, and driveways. Clear guidance on selecting the right fill and calculating quantities helps avoid rework and drainage problems. Fill dirt is a practical choice in Hurst for grading and structural backfill because it is typically low in organic matter, compacts well, and resists excessive settlement when placed and compacted properly. Given the area’s 34.32 inches of annual rainfall, properly compacted fill dirt helps reduce erosion and manage surface runoff when paired with proper grading and drainage solutions. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate fill dirt, offers transparent pricing and scheduled delivery, and coordinates truck delivery so material arrives where you need it. Request delivery timing and tailgate spreading at checkout; drivers may provide spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Hurst This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hurst Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Hurst.
Fill dirt is subsoil used to build up low areas, level ground, or backfill trenches; it contains little organic matter and is not intended for planting. Topsoil is richer, darker, and full of organic material for lawns and gardens, so you should cap fill dirt with topsoil before planting.
Yes — Hello Gravel sources fill dirt from local suppliers serving Hurst, TX, so material reflects regional geology in the DFW area. Because Fill Dirt is a natural product, color and texture can vary by supplier; add a note to your order if you have color or material preferences.
Homeowners use fill dirt to raise low spots, level yards, build grading slopes, backfill foundations and utility trenches, and create base layers for driveways or sheds. Contractors often use it as engineered fill under building pads and pavement when compacted to spec.
No — fill dirt lacks the organic matter and nutrients that plants and grass need to thrive. For lawns and planting beds, spread several inches of quality topsoil or a topsoil/compost mix over the fill dirt before seeding or planting.
Measure the area in square feet and the depth in feet, then use: cubic yards = (area x depth) / 27. For example, covering 1,000 sq ft with 6 inches (0.5 ft) equals about 18.5 cubic yards; use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for help if you prefer.
Fill dirt is typically sold by the cubic yard or ton; Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and delivers by dump truck (usually tri-axle). Standard delivery takes 2+ business days, next-day is possible if ordered before noon CST, and drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion.
Prices vary by supplier, truck access, volume, and material quality; in the Dallas-Fort Worth area fill dirt commonly falls in a broad range depending on those factors. For an exact price, check your zip code on Hello Gravel, get a quote, or contact our sales team for an up-to-date local estimate.
Small landscaping fills usually do not require permits, but any fill used for building pads, retaining walls, or that affects drainage may trigger city or county permits and compaction testing. Check with the City of Hurst Building Inspections for permit requirements on larger or structural fills.
Don't use fill dirt as the final planting or turf surface, as a replacement for engineered base material under pavement unless specified, or where contaminated or organic soils are needed. Avoid using wet, poorly screened, or mixed-debris fill for structural work; request clean, compactable material when ordering.
Yes — many local soils, especially those with clay content, expand when wet and shrink when dry, which can cause settlement or surface cracks. Proper drainage, moisture control, and compaction help reduce movement; for critical work, use engineered fill and compaction testing.
You can blend a thin layer of topsoil into the surface for plants, but don’t mix significant amounts of fill dirt with topsoil if you need a planting-quality surface. For driveways or hardscapes, use the correct aggregate base (crushed rock or road base) rather than fill dirt to ensure stability and drainage.
If the fill has been placed and compacted to engineering specifications and verified with testing, you can build according to your structural plan. Loose fill will settle over time, so for decks, sheds, driveways, and foundations allow for compaction and inspection before loading the area heavily.
Clear the drop area of debris, mark property lines and utilities, ensure adequate truck access and a safe offload location, and note any overhead lines or tight turns for the driver. Add delivery and spreading instructions in Order Notes at checkout and notify Hello Gravel if the site has special access or permits.
Because materials are regionally sourced, variations in color and texture can occur; if the material differs materially from your order, contact Hello Gravel customer service promptly and provide photos. We will work with the supplier to resolve issues and direct you to our refund policy if necessary.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
