Why Splendora Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Splendora is a city of 13,040 in West Texas and part of a growing metro area with 2.2+ million residents. With a growth rate of 2.50% annually, local building and landscaping projects are increasing—new homes, regrades, driveways, and small commercial work all drive steady demand for bulk material. Splendora’s climate (about 228 sunny days per year, roughly 33.00 inches of rain annually, and USDA hardiness zone 8b) means soils can be dry for long stretches but still receive intermittent heavy rains that require proper grading and erosion control. Homeowners and contractors in the area seek dependable aggregates that stand up to sun exposure, shed water during storms, and form stable bases for patios, retaining walls, and yard rebuilds. That local combination of growth and climate makes quality, locally sourced fill dirt a frequent and practical choice.Popular Projects in Splendora This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Splendora Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Splendora.
Delivered prices vary by supplier, moisture, and haul distance. In Splendora, expect approximate ranges of $15 to $40 per ton, which converts roughly to $18 to $48 per cubic yard using a common conversion (1 cubic yard = about 1.2 tons for loose fill dirt). Ask for a local quote on Hello Gravel to see exact price for your zip code and delivery distance.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery is scheduled 2+ business days with a next-day option (orders before noon CST may incur a fee). Additional charges can apply for long drives, off-road dumping, tight access, permits, or weight-restricted local roads; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but this is not guaranteed.
For structural fill in Splendora’s clay-prone soils, use clean, well-graded fill dirt with some fines that compacts well—screened or crushed fill is preferable to raw topsoil. For driveways and pads, place fill in 4-6 inch lifts and mechanically compact each lift; finish the structural layer with road base or crusher run for strength and drainage before surfacing.
Estimate volumes in cubic yards then convert to tons (use ~1.2 tons per cubic yard). Examples: a 12 ft by 100 ft driveway at 4 inches deep needs about 15 cubic yards (~18 tons). Raised yard 10 ft by 10 ft by 1 ft needs about 3.7 cubic yards (~4.5 tons). A 50 ft long trench 2 ft wide by 1 ft deep needs about 3.7 cubic yards (~4.5 tons). For a concrete pad 10x10x6 inches, expect about 1.85 cubic yards (~2.2 tons). Use Hello Gravel’s calculator for precise quotes.
No. Fill dirt is primarily used to raise grade and backfill; it does not provide the interlock or drainage that crusher run or road base does. For driveways and structural pads in Splendora’s wet summers, use fill dirt for bulk elevation and then a compacted layer of road base or crusher run before final paving for durability and drainage.
Possibly. City, county, and HOA rules vary—common triggers include lot grading changes, work in floodplain areas, curb or right-of-way dumping, and septic or drainage impacts. Check Splendora city limits, Montgomery County, and your HOA rules before ordering; Hello Gravel can help with local supplier guidance but cannot confirm permits for you.
Loose or uncompacted fill can erode in heavy rain common to the Splendora area, especially on slopes. Reduce risk by compacting in lifts, establishing positive drainage, using erosion control measures (silt fence, mulch, erosion blankets), and finishing exposed areas with topsoil and vegetation or a stable cover like crushed stone.
Contractors typically source fill dirt from nearby borrow pits, screened stockpiles, quarry overs, or construction-site recycling facilities. Screened and recycled fill options are often available but vary by supplier and season; use Hello Gravel to check current local availability and request screened or certified fill if you need cleaner material.
Yes—unscreened fill dirt can include roots, sticks, and other organics that decompose and cause future settlement. For structural fills, footings, and patios in Splendora, choose screened, clean fill to minimize settling and ensure proper compaction; organic-rich material is better suited for non-structural landscape areas.
Clear a safe truck access and a staging area, mark underground utilities and call 811 before work begins, and note where you want material placed. Expect soft or muddy conditions after rain in this region; if you want spreading, request it at checkout but be aware drivers decide based on safety and equipment.
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.
