Why Laguna Vista Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Laguna Vista (city population 3,417) sits in a growing West Texas region that is part of a metro area with 2.5+ million residents and is expanding at about 2.11% annually. With 223 sunny days per year, average annual rainfall of 27.09 inches, and a USDA hardiness zone of 9b, local homeowners and builders face distinct site conditions: strong sun, episodic rain, and soils that vary by lot. Those factors drive demand for reliable bulk materials to manage drainage, level yards, and prepare building pads. Homeowners choose quality aggregates like fill dirt to create stable subgrades, prevent settling, and reduce the need for costly rework—especially important as construction and landscaping activity picks up alongside regional growth. Regional sourcing also matters here: locally sourced fill dirt reflects Laguna Vista geology, so texture and compaction behavior are more predictable for on-site crews and DIYers.Popular Projects in Laguna Vista This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laguna Vista Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Laguna Vista.
Delivered fill dirt to Laguna Vista commonly ranges from about $20 to $40 per cubic yard depending on supplier, truck access, and how far the material is hauled. Prices can be quoted per ton in some cases (roughly $10 to $25 per ton depending on moisture and soil type). Hello Gravel requires a minimum order and recommends checking your zip code or requesting a local quote for exact pricing and any delivery fees.
Yes, fill dirt is generally cheaper than topsoil because it contains less organic matter and is mined or excavated rather than screened and blended. For projects where plant growth matters, topsoil costs more but provides nutrients and structure, so many Laguna Vista homeowners buy fill dirt for bulk raising and then add topsoil where they intend to plant.
You can use fill dirt to raise or level a yard, especially for grading and drainage, but plan to cap it with topsoil if you will seed or plant. Use this rule of thumb: 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet, so it covers 81 sq ft at a 4-inch depth. For example, to raise 1,000 sq ft by 3 inches you need about 9.3 cubic yards; a typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards, so one truck will often do a small yard job. Always add 10-20% for settlement and compaction.
Typical fill dirt in the Laguna Vista area has low organic content and will not support seeded lawns well on its own. For lawns and gardens you should spread 2 to 4 inches of topsoil or amended soil over the fill, or mix organic amendments into the top few inches before seeding. For drought-tolerant installations consider selecting grasses and seed mixes adapted to South Texas coastal conditions and plan for irrigation during establishment.
One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet and covers about 81 sq ft at 4 inches of depth (or 108 sq ft at 3 inches). A typical tri-axle dump truck carries roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards loose, which at 4 inches covers about 810 to 972 sq ft. Exact coverage varies by depth, compaction, and how the material is placed, so calculate based on the depth you need and add a settlement allowance.
Hello Gravel has a minimum order (check current minimums at checkout), and many suppliers in our network set minimums as well, often around 3 tons or a few cubic yards. Some local landscape yards or independent suppliers in the Laguna Vista area may offer 1 cubic yard or pickup loads, but availability varies by zip code. If you need a very small amount, request a quote in checkout or call our team so we can check for local low-volume options.
For driveway base use clean, compactable fill with minimal organics and good gradation, followed by a properly sized gravel or crushed stone wearing surface; engineered fill or compacted road base is preferred over loose fill dirt alone. For general grading and raising low spots, a free-draining sandy or silty fill with low organic content works well in Laguna Vista's coastal plain. For erosion control near slopes or drainage channels, use coarser, stable material and consider vegetation or erosion-control fabrics; talk to our sales team for supplier-specific recommendations.
Most deliveries are drop-off via dump truck; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but this is not guaranteed. For even placement, compaction, and final grading you should plan to hire local equipment (skid steer, small dozer, or plate compactor) or arrange labor separately. Hello Gravel can note spreading requests at checkout, but drivers will assess safety and access upon arrival.
Clear a straight access path and identify a safe drop zone before delivery; remove vehicles, low limbs, and obstacles so a tri-axle truck can approach. Call 811 to mark underground utilities, stake the intended placement area, and make sure the ground can support a heavy truck (avoid soft, boggy areas). Plan for compaction in lifts (4 to 8 inches) after delivery and arrange equipment or crew if you need the material spread and compacted right away.
For planting or lawns, suppliers recommend topsoil or screened topsoil blended with compost for better plant growth. For driveways and high-traffic areas, consider engineered fill topped with crusher-run or compacted gravel. For drainage or erosion control, options include coarse sand, riprap, or geotextile-stabilized fills; consult with our team to match the best material to your project and local site conditions.
Compaction is critical: uncontrolled fills will settle and shift over time, so place fill in lifts (usually 4 to 8 inches) and compact each layer with proper equipment. Expect some settlement; allow roughly 10-20% extra material for loose placement and do final shaping after compaction. If structural or load-bearing performance matters, ask about engineered fill and compaction verification from local suppliers.
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.
