Why Sachse Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sachse, West Texas, is a growing city of 28,930 residents experiencing steady expansion at about 2.40% annually. With 230 sunny days per year, 38.00 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8a, local homeowners and builders balance hot, dry spells with periodic heavy rains. That climate and steady population growth drive ongoing demand for construction and landscaping materials—from new foundations and driveway fills to yard regrading and drainage fixes. Homeowners look for dependable aggregates that compact well and resist erosion during heavy rain events. Fill Dirt is a fundamental material for raising low areas, creating uniform subgrades, and supporting hardscapes; choosing the right fill reduces settling and repeat work, keeping local projects on schedule and on budget.Popular Projects in Sachse This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sachse Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Sachse.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Sachse typically run in the range of about $8 to $25 per ton, depending on local supply, truck distance, and order size. Bulk discounts apply for larger loads and exact pricing is best confirmed by getting a quote through Hello Gravel for your zip code.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and can usually schedule standard deliveries to Sachse in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST. Suppliers are regionally sourced in the Collin County area, so lead times can stretch for very large orders or during peak landscaping season.
Contractors in the Sachse area typically place fill dirt in 4 to 8 inch lifts and compact each lift with a plate compactor or roller to about 90% to 95% relative compaction. For projects under slabs or near structures, engineers may require tested, engineered fill rather than generic fill dirt to meet permit or design requirements.
No — fill dirt is usually not recommended as a driveway base in Sachse because it often contains fines and clay that do not drain or lock together well. For driveways, contractors typically use crushed stone, crusher run, or road base that compacts firmly and sheds water better in hot, clay-prone conditions.
To raise 1,000 square feet by 6 inches you need about 18.5 cubic yards (500 cubic feet). Fill dirt density varies, but that equals roughly 24 to 30 tons depending on moisture and compaction; use Hello Gravel's material calculator or request a quote with your exact dimensions for a precise number.
Permitting depends on the scope: small residential deliveries are usually fine, but large volume fills, changes to drainage patterns, or grading near floodplains often require permits. Check with the City of Sachse and Collin County building/planning departments before large fills, and keep documentation of imported material and grading plans handy.
Sachse's hot summers and clay-prone subsoils can cause fill dirt with fines to shrink, swell, and retain water, which may lead to settling or drainage issues. To improve long-term performance, contractors add clean structural fill, regrade for positive drainage, and compact in lifts; consider engineered fill or drainage solutions for critical areas.
Fill dirt is usually the least expensive material per ton, but it lacks the structural qualities for a driveway base. Crusher run or road base costs more—typically higher per ton—but provide much better compaction and durability, so the slightly higher price often saves money on repairs over time.
Local contractors generally prefer clean, granular material (washed sand or engineered fill) where drainage and compaction are critical, and may use mixed or native fill for non-structural grading. For driveways, pads, and near foundations they often specify crusher run or compactable engineered fill instead of generic fill dirt.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, and many Sachse-area deliveries have no additional fee, but delivery charges can range from $0 to about $150 depending on distance, site access, and truck routing. You can see exact delivery costs at checkout or get a custom quote from our team if you have special access needs or require tailgate spreading (driver discretion).
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.
