Why Wheeler Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Nestled in West Texas, Wheeler is a small but steadily growing community of 1,660 residents, with a metro area population of 4,804 and an annual growth rate of 0.98% annually. Its semi-arid setting (USDA hardiness zone 7a), 257 sunny days per year, and modest 25.66 inches of annual rainfall mean outdoor projects can proceed with fewer weather delays than wetter regions. That steady, pragmatic growth and ongoing upkeep of rural properties drives demand for reliable bulk materials: homeowners need locally sourced fill dirt for grading yards, raising low spots, building shed and garage pads, backfilling foundations, and controlling erosion. Because local soils and drainage vary across properties, buyers look for consistent, compactable fill dirt that blends with native soils and reduces future settling — making correct material selection and delivery essential for long-lasting results.Popular Projects in Wheeler This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Wheeler Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Wheeler.
Delivered fill dirt prices in Wheeler vary by supplier, moisture content, and distance, but you can expect roughly $15 to $40 per cubic yard delivered. A common tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards, so a single truckload typically runs between about $150 and $560 before any special delivery fees. For an exact price, request a quote through Hello Gravel with your zip code and delivery details.
In our service area the most common truck is a tri-axle which typically carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards loose. Fill dirt weighs roughly 2,200 to 2,700 pounds per cubic yard depending on moisture, so a full tri-axle load can weigh around 22,000 to 38,000 pounds (11 to 19 tons) loose. Smaller single-axle trucks hold about 6 to 9 cubic yards.
Assuming a 20-foot-long driveway 10 feet wide needing 4 inches of fill dirt, you would need about 2.5 cubic yards of material. At typical delivered rates of $15 to $40 per cubic yard, materials would cost about $40 to $100, which may be near Hello Gravel's minimum order requirement; delivery fees can change the total. For a firm price, enter your address and delivery preferences on Hello Gravel to get a local quote.
No. Two inches of fill dirt is not sufficient for a driveway base in West Texas. Because Wheeler soils can be clayey and change with moisture, you should plan for at least 6 to 12 inches of properly compacted base material (preferably compactible stone) under the finished surface rather than relying on 2 inches of fill dirt alone.
For long-term stability, use clean, non-organic fill dirt free of roots, topsoil, and large debris so it compacts consistently. Locally sourced fill in West Texas tends toward clay and silt mixes; these can compact well if placed in thin lifts and mechanically compacted, but for structural applications a granular, compactible base material is usually recommended beneath surface layers.
Fill dirt can be used to raise grade and fill low spots, but it is not ideal as the primary base for a driveway. For driveways in Wheeler's climate and soil, a compactible crushed-stone base (crusher run or road base) provides better strength, drainage, and long-term performance; combine fill dirt where needed to adjust grade and then install a proper stone base.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and many drivers can offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if you request it at checkout, but spreading and compaction services are not guaranteed. Compacting is typically not provided by dump truck deliveries; you should plan to hire local equipment or a contractor for compaction. Any spreading or labor fees vary by supplier and are shown or discussed during checkout and confirmation.
Hello Gravel's national minimum order is 3 tons, and availability or pricing for Wheeler may include additional rural delivery fees depending on the supplier's distance from your address. Some areas receive free standard delivery, but remote or long-haul deliveries can have extra charges—verify pricing and minimums by entering your zip code at checkout or requesting a quote from our team.
If the delivered fill dirt is compacted properly right after placement, light foot traffic or additional layers can often proceed within a day. However, full settlement can continue over weeks after placement, and heavy vehicle traffic should be postponed until the base has been mechanically compacted and inspected. In West Texas, pay attention to seasonal moisture—wet conditions can extend the curing and compaction time.
Provide your full delivery address or zip code, the exact delivery location and access notes (gate widths, overhead lines, driveway surface), the area and desired depth in feet or cubic yards, whether you want spreading or compaction, and preferred delivery date. Photos of the site are very helpful for suppliers to assess access and estimate any extra handling fees.
Expect local fill dirt to reflect West Texas geology—more clay and silt—and list color or textural preferences in Order Notes if appearance matters. Because rural roads and access in and around Wheeler can be tight, include access photos and ask about tailgate spreading if you need the material distributed; always confirm delivery windows and check the minimum 3-ton order requirement before finalizing your purchase.
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.
