Why Snook Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Snook, Texas has a city population of 970 and lies within a growing West Texas metro area of 268,248, expanding at a growth rate of 1.80% annually. The local climate—about 222 sunny days per year, a hardiness zone of 8b, and an annual rainfall of 40.65 inches—creates specific demands for yard work and light construction. Homeowners in Snook frequently need reliable material for grading, garage pads, and driveway subgrades that resist erosion during heavy rains and settle predictably under hot, dry summers. With steady local growth and varied native soils, quality aggregates are often chosen to create level, stable bases before adding topsoil, sod, or surface gravel. Fill Dirt is a compactable, low-organic material that works well in Snook’s climate because it stabilizes grades and reduces long-term settling where runoff concentrates. For projects affected by 40.65 inches of annual rainfall, properly placed and compacted fill dirt helps direct water away from structures and prevents low spots. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and professional dump-truck delivery so you get regionally sourced fill dirt on a scheduled day, with standard 2+ business day delivery or next-day options available when requested at checkout.Popular Projects in Snook This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Snook Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Snook.
In Snook and West Texas, delivered fill dirt typically runs about $12 to $30 per ton (roughly $16 to $40 per cubic yard) depending on haul distance, local supply, and moisture content. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and offers transparent quotes—get a zip-specific price for an exact number.
Fill dirt is fine for grading, backfill, and raising low spots but is not ideal as a finished driveway surface. For driveways and pads, use select or structural fill and compact in 4-6 inch lifts to about 90% relative compaction with a plate compactor or roller, then top with crusher run or base rock for final surfacing.
Snook’s hot, dry climate and local clays can cause fill dirt to shrink, crack, and settle as moisture changes, and poorly drained clay will hold water and weaken over time. To reduce problems, control moisture at placement, compact in lifts, provide positive drainage, and avoid using plain fill dirt where a stable, load-bearing base is needed.
Use this quick guide: a typical 12' x 50' driveway raised 6 inches needs about 11 cubic yards (roughly 14 tons). Leveling a 1/4-acre yard by 3 inches requires about 100 cubic yards (about 130 tons). Foundation backfill quantities vary by footing size, but a small residential foundation backfill job often ranges from 5 to 40 cubic yards depending on wall height and length.
Hello Gravel connects you with local West Texas suppliers; delivery is usually by tri-axle dump trucks from regional haulers. Our minimum order is 3 tons, though some suppliers or rural deliveries may have higher minimums—check your zip code at checkout or contact our team for supplier-specific minimums.
Possibly. Snook and Brazos County may have permitting rules for driveway connections, culverts, and grading changes, and HOAs can set surface or setback requirements. Before ordering, check with the City of Snook or county building office and review any HOA guidelines to avoid rework.
Plain fill dirt will settle, rut, and produce dust in hot, dry weather; expect periodic regrading and refill after heavy rains or seasonal settling. For lower maintenance, cap the area with compacted base rock or crusher run, install edge restraints, and add periodic watering and compaction during placement to limit long-term settling.
Fill dirt is the least expensive but is not suitable as a finished driving surface. Crusher run and base rock cost more but provide the load-bearing and drainage properties driveways need; decomposed granite can be more costly and is better for decorative paths when stabilized. For lasting driveways in West Texas, choose compacted base rock or crusher run topped with a wearing layer rather than plain fill dirt.
Common options include lime or cement stabilization to reduce shrink-swell in clayey fill, geotextile fabric for separation from soft soils, and mixing or capping with crushed stone to improve strength and drainage. Ask our team or your supplier about stabilized or select fill if you need improved performance for a driveway or pad.
Avoid deliveries during heavy rains because West Texas clay gets sticky and trucks can rut the site; extreme heat can increase dust and make compaction harder. Prepare a 12- to 18-foot clear access route, identify the preferred dump location in Order Notes, request tailgate spreading if you want it (driver discretion), and schedule deliveries with at least 2 business days for standard service or before noon CST for next-day options.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to change or cancel an order—changes are easiest before the load is dispatched and not guaranteed after dispatch. Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST (fee applies), and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed.
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.
