Why Lytle Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lytle is a small but growing West Texas community with a city population of 8,240 and ties to a broader metro area population of 2.5+ million. With steady growth of 1.02% annually, local homeowners and contractors are increasingly taking on grading, yard leveling, and foundation prep projects that require dependable bulk materials. Lytle's climate—228 sunny days annually, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b—means outdoor work windows are long, but storms and seasonal runoff still demand proper site preparation. That combination of growth and climate drives demand for quality aggregates: residents need fill that compacts well, controls settling, and supports drainage so landscaping and structures last longer under West Texas conditions. Fill Dirt is a practical choice in Lytle for raising grade, backfilling foundations, and building up low spots before topsoil or pavement. Because Lytle gets strong sun and periodic rain, low-organic, well-graded fill dirt helps resist erosion and settle predictably when properly compacted. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers who understand regional soils, offers clear pricing and scheduled dump-truck delivery, and provides tools and guidance to choose the right tonnage and delivery window—making it easier for homeowners to get reliable, locally sourced fill dirt when they need it.Popular Projects in Lytle This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lytle Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Lytle.
Delivered fill dirt in Lytle usually depends on supplier, haul distance, and product quality. Expect a typical local range of about $8 to $20 per ton, with minimum orders (Hello Gravel minimum 3 tons) and delivery fees affecting the final price. For an exact quote, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or call our team for a delivery estimate.
For West Texas' hot, dry conditions, choose a clean, compactable fill with low organic content—often called select or structural fill—rather than topsoil. Avoid expansive clay; if drainage is a concern add a granular layer (crusher run or compactable gravel) on top for driveways and patios to improve stability and runoff.
Use this formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. Then convert to tons using about 1.2 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard for loose fill dirt (more if compacted). For example, raising 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches needs about 18.5 cubic yards, or roughly 22 to 26 tons.
Hello Gravel serves Lytle with a 3-ton minimum order and delivery by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle). Standard delivery takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee; tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is provided at the driver’s discretion.
Yes—proper compaction is essential for driveways to prevent settling and rutting; compact in lifts no greater than 6–8 inches. Costs vary: DIY rental of a plate compactor often runs $50 to $150 per day while small rollers rent for $150 to $400 per day; contractor rates for labor and compaction can vary widely, so get local quotes for an accurate cost estimate.
Fill dirt itself is durable if properly compacted and covered with a suitable surface; however, West Texas heat and occasional drought can cause minor shrinkage or settling over the first year. Expect to check grades after the first wet season, add spot fills as needed, and use a gravel surfacing for drive areas to reduce dust and washboarding.
Lytle and Atascosa County may require building permits and engineered fill or compaction testing for structural backfill or projects near foundations. Always check with the Lytle City Hall or county building department before placing large volumes for structural use, and follow any required compaction specifications or inspection processes.
Fill dirt is usually the cheapest option for bulk raising and general leveling but contains little organic matter, so it is not good for planting. Crusher run or compactable granular base is better for driveway bases because it compacts well and sheds water. Topsoil is the best choice for lawns and gardens because it supports plant growth but is more expensive.
Yes—West Texas commonly has caliche (cemented calcium carbonate) and clay that affect drainage and compaction. Caliche can impede drainage and may require removal or a granular layer; tell your supplier about local soil conditions so they can recommend the right fill type and any extra preparation you might need.
