Why Mineola Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mineola (city population 11,800) sits within a steadily growing West Texas region and benefits from measured development tied to a metro area population of 2.7+ million. With an annual growth rate of 0.40%, moderate rainfall (annual rainfall 34.25 inches), abundant sunshine (228 sunny days/year), and a hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners juggle sun, occasional heavy rains, and soils that can compact or erode without proper preparation. That combination drives demand for reliable, locally sourced aggregates for grading, leveling, and basic site preparation. Homeowners choose quality fill materials to stabilize foundations for landscaping beds, patios, driveways, and to correct low spots before planting or paving. Fill Dirt is the practical backbone for many of these projects in Mineola because it is intended for compaction and raising grade rather than for finished surfaces. In a climate with 228 sunny days/year and periodic rainfall (annual rainfall 34.25 inches), correctly placed fill dirt helps manage water flow and create stable subgrades for sod, pavers, and structures. Hello Gravel connects Mineola homeowners with local suppliers and professional haulers, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery windows, and local material options so you get the right fill dirt for your soil and site conditions without the hassle of sourcing and coordinating trucks yourself.Popular Projects in Mineola This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mineola Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Mineola.
Pricing depends on the type of fill, the supplier, and haul distance from local quarries near West Texas. Hello Gravel shows upfront delivered pricing during checkout; small residential jobs often total a few hundred dollars while larger yard-raising projects can run into the low thousands. Our minimum order is 3 tons, and you can get an exact cost by entering your zip code or contacting our team at 855-241-8884.
For foundation and subgrade work, use low-organic, compactable fill (often labeled screened or structural fill) that is free of roots and high organic matter. Screened or engineered fill compacts well and reduces future settlement; however, under a driveway you should finish with a compactable base rock or crusher run on top of the fill for drainage and load support. Always confirm compaction specs with your builder or a soils engineer for structural work.
Fill dirt performance depends on soil type and compaction rather than temperature alone, but West Texas heat can dry soils and increase shrinkage if they are clay-rich. Proper placement in 6-8 inch lifts with thorough compaction and attention to drainage will minimize problems from drying and the occasional freeze-thaw cycle. For projects where freeze-thaw or swelling soils are a concern, consider a geotechnical test or using engineered fill to reduce movement.
Measure the area in square feet and the desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards (area x depth in feet ÷ 27). As a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of fill dirt weighs about 1.2 to 1.5 tons depending on moisture and material; multiply cubic yards by 1.3 for a practical tonnage estimate. Remember Hello Gravel has a material calculator on-site and our minimum delivery is 3 tons, so plan orders accordingly.
Many local contractors in Mineola use plate compactors or small rollers and place fill in controlled lifts to achieve good compaction for driveways and yard work. Always ask your contractor what compaction equipment and lift thickness they plan to use, and request a compaction target or proof of compaction if the job is structural. If in doubt, hire a contractor experienced with compacted fill or get a soils report for critical projects.
For erosion control on slopes, well-graded screened fill that compacts and drains reasonably well is usually a safer choice than mixed recycled fill, which can contain debris and variable materials. However, any fill on slopes should be used with erosion-control measures such as vegetation, erosion-control fabric, terraces, or silt fences. For steep or sensitive slopes consider consulting a civil engineer to specify the right material and erosion-control approach.
As a temporary surface, compacted fill dirt can function for months to a few years, but it will usually require periodic regrading and adding material after heavy rains or traffic. For long-term durability, a properly compacted base rock or crusher run topped with surface material will need far less maintenance. Local climate, drainage, and traffic load are the biggest factors determining how often maintenance is needed.
Hello Gravel partners with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers who deliver bulk screened fill dirt to Mineola; availability reflects regional sourcing from West Texas. Delivery is typically by tri-axle dump trucks with a 3-ton minimum; for placement or loader service request this at checkout or contact our team and we will try to arrange it. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion but is not guaranteed.
Fill dirt is appropriate for building grade and filling low areas but it does not provide the same load-bearing and drainage qualities as crusher run. For slope stability and a driveway base, crusher run or well-graded base rock is better because it compacts tightly and sheds water while providing structural support. Use fill dirt to achieve grade, then add crusher run or base rock where drainage and load-bearing are required.
Most deliveries to Mineola use tri-axle dump trucks, but local road weight limits, narrow streets, or bridge restrictions may affect access and require alternate drop locations. Homeowners should check HOA rules and local ordinances for permit needs, and inform Hello Gravel about tight drives, low-hanging wires, or limited turnarounds when ordering. Our team will confirm access during scheduling and advise if special permits or routing are likely required.
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.
