Frequently Asked Questions - Robinson Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Robinson.
Fill dirt is soil used to raise or level ground and is usually free of organic material that would decompose. In Robinson projects it is commonly used to build up yard grade, raise building pads, fill trenches, or prepare a base under driveways and patios. Local suppliers often blend native soil with crushed stone or caliche for added stability depending on the job.
Delivered prices vary by supplier, distance, and material type, but a typical range in West Texas is about $10 to $25 per ton (roughly $3 to $9 per cubic yard) delivered. Exact pricing for Robinson depends on current supplier rates, availability, and minimum order size, so check our site or request a quote for a real-time delivered price to your zip code.
Hello Gravel connects local suppliers and dump truck haulers that serve Robinson with regional fill dirt sources. Most suppliers working with our network have a minimum order around 3 tons, and typical residential deliveries are 3 to 10 tons; for larger commercial jobs a supplier may set higher minimums. We’ll show available suppliers, minimums, and delivery options during checkout.
As a rule of thumb: to raise 1,000 sq ft by 1 inch you need about 0.3 cubic yards (roughly 0.5 tons), so raising 1,000 sq ft by 6 inches needs about 1.5 cubic yards (approximately 2.5 to 3 tons). For a 2-car driveway base (12 ft x 40 ft) at 6 inches you’d need roughly 12 cubic yards (about 16 to 20 tons). For patio bases or small yard grading, calculate area x depth, convert cubic yards to tons using supplier densities, or use our material calculator for a precise quote.
In hot, arid conditions fill dirt can become dusty and may shrink slightly when very dry, but it generally compacts well if it has enough fines or caliche content. Erosion from rare but heavy storms can be an issue on sloped areas, so proper compaction and surface grading are important. Consider adding a top layer of crusher run or gravel for driveways to reduce dust and surface wear.
Permit requirements vary by municipality and project type, so contact the City of Robinson planning or building department and your county permitting office before major grading, creating new driveways, or changing drainage. Small yard leveling often does not require a permit, but altering drainage, raising pads near property lines, or building impervious surfaces may. Always confirm local rules to avoid fines or required rework.
In West Texas, caliche-rich fill or crushed limestone blends are common and work well under heavy vehicle loads because they compact firmly and resist rutting. Native sandy-clay fills can be acceptable if properly compacted and combined with a rock or crusher-run wearing surface. For the most durable result, use a compacted fill base topped with 4-6 inches of crusher run or roadbase for the wearing surface.
Fill-dirt bases by themselves are not ideal as a final wearing surface; a properly compacted fill base with an added gravel or crusher-run top layer can last many years with routine maintenance. Expect to regrade and add surface material every few years, and promptly repair ruts after wet weather. Regular compaction and keeping drainage away from the edges will extend life in Robinson’s climate.
For structural base work, compacted fill dirt is fine to adjust grade and build up low areas, but crusher run or roadbase is recommended as the actual load-bearing layer for driveways and parking areas. Crusher run locks together and provides a stable driving surface; roadbase is engineered for drainage and strength. A common approach is bring in fill dirt to reach desired grade and then place 4-8 inches of crusher run or roadbase on top for the finished driving surface.
Install fill dirt in lifts of 4 to 6 inches loose thickness and compact each lift thoroughly before adding the next layer. For driveways and pads aim for a total compacted base depth of 8 to 12 inches under the finished surface, with compaction to a firm level (contractors often target 90%+ of Standard Proctor in engineered work). If you have expansive clays or very loose soils, consider thicker lifts, more compaction passes, or consulting a local civil engineer.
Standard delivery via our network is typically 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Peak construction seasons (spring and fall) can increase lead times, while extreme heat or rainy periods can affect hauling and spreading. We recommend ordering early and checking estimated delivery windows at checkout to lock in a date.
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.
