Why Lasara Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lasara is a small West Texas town with a city population of 606 and sits inside a metro area with a population of 2.5+ million. With a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners in Lasara are balancing sun-drenched yards with occasional heavy rains. That mix drives demand for sensible grading, erosion control, and stable base materials for driveways, patio pads, and foundation backfill. Fill Dirt — compactable, low-organic subsoil used to raise grade and replace excavated material — is a common solution. Lasara homeowners look for consistent, well-graded fill to avoid settling, promote proper drainage, and reduce maintenance over time. Local projects benefit from materials that reflect regional geology and perform under hardiness zone 8b conditions. Fill Dirt in Lasara should resist erosion during sudden downpours yet compact reliably under the region’s sun. Because local soils can vary, properly screened fill with minimal organic content helps reduce future settling and plant-root disturbance. Hello Gravel connects homeowners with nearby suppliers who source Fill Dirt that reflects West Texas geology and provides scheduled delivery by professional dump fleets. We make ordering simple, offer clear pricing, and provide delivery options: standard delivery takes 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee applies). Minimum orders start at 3 tons, and drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Lasara This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lasara Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Lasara.
Delivered fill dirt in Lasara and wider West Texas typically ranges from about $8 to $25 per ton (rough range) or roughly $10 to $35 per cubic yard, depending on screening, moisture, and hauling distance. Prices vary with supplier, how far the truck must travel, whether the material is screened, and seasonal demand; Hello Gravel can provide local quotes and shows any delivery minimums and fees at checkout.
Fill dirt sold in West Texas is usually unscreened native fill (mixed fines and rock) or screened fill (finer and more consistent). Use unscreened for bulk grade raising and low-cost fill, screened fill where a cleaner, more compactable material is needed under hardscapes or before topsoil; crushed rock or road base are better when a stable wearing surface is required.
A practical conversion for West Texas fill dirt is about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard; use 1.3 tons/cu yd as a rule of thumb. Examples: a 12' x 50' area raised 6" (0.5 ft) is about 11.1 cu yd or roughly 14 to 15 tons; raising a 1/4-acre by 6" is about 202 cu yd or roughly 260 to 270 tons. Always allow 5-10% extra for settling and compaction losses.
Lasara and West Texas can be hot with local clay and silty soils, so fill dirt that contains fines can hold moisture, shrink, or rut when wet and become dusty when dry. Proper compaction, drainage planning, and using a granular cap (road base or crushed limestone) on top reduce erosion and settlement problems in this climate. Because materials vary regionally, consider screened fill for areas that need better compaction and stability.
Small DIY jobs use plate compactors or hand tampers, while larger driveways or pads benefit from a walk-behind vibratory roller or a small single-drum roller; contractors use larger vibratory rollers for extensive work. Rental rates typically run about $100-$200/day for a plate compactor and $300-$600/day for a small roller; contractor installation and compaction often lands in rough ranges of $8-$20 per cubic yard installed or $0.50-$3.00 per sq ft depending on access and scope. For structural work, follow compaction specs from an engineer or builder and factor in testing costs if required.
Hello Gravel generally arranges standard delivery in 2+ business days with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, subject to supplier availability in the Lasara area. Availability of screened versus unscreened fill varies by local yard and season; we will confirm material type, lead time, and truck size when you get a quote or check your zip code on our site.
Permit needs depend on the project and location; simple backyard grade raising or small driveway repairs often do not require a county permit, but any work affecting public drainage, floodplains, or road approaches may trigger county or state permits. Check Willacy County planning or the local municipality if you are near a subdivision or regulated drainage, and check any HOA rules before altering driveway or yard grades.
Fill dirt used as bulk grade typically performs as a base for several years but will settle, especially in West Texas with seasonal wetting and drying; expect to regrade low spots and add top-off material every 1-3 years for unpaved driveways. For a stable wearing surface, cover fill dirt with road base or crushed stone and perform periodic grading, dust control, and reapplication of top material as needed.
For pure grade raising or inexpensive bulk fill, fill dirt is appropriate, but it is not a good final wearing surface for driveways. Crushed limestone or compacted road base provide better drainage, compaction, and durability for driveways and rural roads in West Texas; consider a layer of compacted fill dirt for subgrade then a minimum 3-4" of road base or 3/4" crushed limestone as the wearing surface.
Fill dirt can be used as loose fill for non-structural grade-raising, but for building foundations, compacted structural pads, or RV pads expect to need engineered fill and compaction testing. For any load-bearing work (foundations, slab-on-grade, or heavy RV support) consult a geotechnical engineer or local building official to specify compaction requirements, tests, and suitable material types.
Screened fill dirt has fines and debris removed for a more uniform, finer particle mix, which compacts more consistently and is better under pads, slabs, and where settlement matters. Unscreened fill is cheaper and fine for bulk grade raises or filling large voids but may contain roots and rock that make compaction less predictable; choose screened for final grade under structures and unscreened for low-cost bulk fills.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
