Why Rancho Viejo Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rancho Viejo has a city population of 2,864 and sits in a West Texas setting where practical building choices matter. With a growth rate of 0.00% annually, 223 sunny days per year, 27.27 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 10a, homeowners face arid soils, intense sun, and occasional heavy runoff. Those conditions create steady demand for reliable fill materials to raise low areas, level building pads, backfill around foundations, and repair erosion after storm events. Clean, compactable fill dirt helps prevent future settling, improves drainage when shaped correctly, and provides a stable base for patios, driveways, retaining walls, and landscape grading—making quality aggregates a common requirement for both DIY projects and professional jobs in the area. Fill Dirt is especially useful in Rancho Viejo because it offers low-organic, coarse-grained material that compacts well and resists decomposition in sunny, semi-arid climates. Properly placed and compacted fill dirt creates consistent grades for water runoff in a place that averages 223 sunny days per year and 27.27 inches of rainfall. Hello Gravel simplifies access to locally sourced fill dirt by connecting you to trusted suppliers and dump truck fleets, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery (standard 2+ business days), a minimum order of 3 tons, and next-day delivery options for orders placed before noon CST. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Rancho Viejo This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rancho Viejo Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Rancho Viejo.
Generally yes. Fill dirt is usually less expensive than topsoil because it is unamended earth used to raise grades, while topsoil contains organic matter and is processed for planting. Local prices in West Texas vary by supplier and delivery distance, so check Hello Gravel for current quotes and remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Prices vary by local supplier, truck distance, and the type of fill dirt, so there is no single fixed price. For an accurate cost, use Hello Gravel to get an instant quote for your zip code; we handle pricing and delivery scheduling. Keep in mind delivery and optional services can affect the final price.
No. Fill dirt is subsoil or excavated earth used to build up or level ground and has low organic content, while topsoil is the nutrient-rich upper layer meant for planting. Use fill dirt for structural fill and raising grades, and add topsoil or compost if you plan to grow grass, flowers, or vegetables.
One cubic yard is a 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft pile — roughly the size of a large office chair footprint and about waist high. Weight depends on moisture and composition, but typical fill dirt in West Texas runs about 1.1 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. Regional material and compaction will change the exact weight, so plan using the supplier's specifications.
Yes — fill dirt is commonly used to raise and level yards, driveways, and foundation areas. For best results, place lift layers no thicker than 6 to 8 inches and compact each lift; finish the top several inches with topsoil if you intend to plant grass or landscaping. Also confirm drainage and slope so you do not create low spots or direct water toward foundations.
Most full-size pickup beds will hold roughly 0.5 to 1.0 cubic yard safely when loaded above the bed rails, while smaller trucks hold less. Weight limits matter: a full-size truck can hit payload limits quickly with dense fill dirt, so do not overload. For larger jobs, use a dump truck through Hello Gravel to meet our minimum order and safe delivery practices.
Coverage depends on depth. One ton of fill dirt is roughly 1.1 to 1.5 cubic yards; using 1.2 cubic yards as an example, it will cover about 194 sq ft at 2 inches, 97 sq ft at 4 inches, and 65 sq ft at 6 inches. These are approximate figures — always calculate based on the exact cubic yards you order and the finish depth you need.
No — 2 inches is generally insufficient for healthy turf. In Rancho Viejo's warm, drier climate, aim for 4 to 6 inches of quality topsoil for seeding or sodding so roots can establish and access moisture. If you only have fill dirt, add a layer of topsoil or compost before planting.
Not reliably. Fill dirt lacks organic matter and nutrients that grass needs, and it is often compacted, which reduces root growth and water infiltration. To grow a healthy lawn, spread several inches of topsoil or amended soil over the fill dirt and loosen the surface, then seed or sod and irrigate appropriately for West Texas conditions.
Some hardy, drought-tolerant plants and weeds can grow in fill dirt, especially native grasses and certain shrubs, but most ornamental plants and lawns will struggle without soil improvement. For landscaping success, amend the surface with topsoil and compost or select native, xeric plants adapted to West Texas soils. Soil testing can help identify deficiencies before planting.
Start by marking utilities and clearing vegetation and debris from the area. Bring in fill in 6- to 8-inch lifts and compact each lift with proper equipment to reduce settling later; check final grades for positive drainage away from structures. When ordering from Hello Gravel, note delivery preferences, request tailgate spreading at checkout if desired (driver discretion), and remember our standard delivery timing of 2+ business days with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST.
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.
