Why Wylie Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Wylie has a city population of 69,970 and sits within a growing West Texas metro area of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, ongoing residential development and yard upgrades are common, creating steady demand for basic site materials. Wylie’s semi-arid climate (about 225/year sunny days, 35.00 inches of annual rainfall, hardiness zone 8b) shapes landscaping and drainage needs—homeowners often need reliable fill to raise grades, prevent low spots, and prepare building pads. Because local soils vary across the region, choosing consistent, low-organic fill dirt helps avoid uneven settlement and reduces erosion risk during occasional heavy rains.Popular Projects in Wylie This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Wylie Fill Dirt Delivery
Everything you need to know about fill dirt delivery in Wylie.
Prices vary by supplier, load size, and haul distance; Hello Gravel shows live delivered pricing when you enter your zip code. As a ballpark, delivered fill dirt in the North Texas area often falls in the range of $15 to $45 per ton (roughly $11 to $33 per cubic yard) depending on local availability, order size, and site access; contact us for an exact quote. Minimum orders start at 3 tons.
Wylie and Collin County commonly have clay-rich native soils and hot summers with occasional heavy rains, which can cause shrink-swell and poor drainage if not addressed. Fill dirt can settle, hold moisture, and move with freeze-thaw or wetting/drying cycles, so it should be used as a grade-raising material and covered with a structural base (crushed stone) for driveways or compacted properly for pads. Proper drainage and compaction are critical in this climate to avoid long-term problems.
Contractors typically place fill dirt in 4 to 6 inch lifts and compact each lift to reduce future settlement; small residential jobs use plate compactors or rammers, while larger jobs use sheepsfoot or vibratory rollers. For structural pads or building pads, aim for engineering compaction targets (commonly 90-95% of standard Proctor) and consult a local engineer for critical loads. Always keep moisture content near optimal during compaction to get the best density.
Use the formula cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324, and plan roughly 1.2 tons per cubic yard for compacted fill dirt plus 5 to 10 percent extra for settlement and spreading. Example estimates: raise a 2-car driveway (400 sq ft) by 6 inches = about 7.4 cubic yards (~9 tons); raise a 1,000 sq ft yard by 3 inches = about 9.3 cubic yards (~11 tons). Order a little extra to allow for compaction and minor grading.
Same-day delivery is sometimes available if a nearby supplier has material and trucks available; check real-time availability and delivery windows on Hello Gravel for your zip code. Bulk pricing and lower per-ton rates are common for larger orders, and Hello Gravel can show volume discounts and delivery options during checkout; remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Small residential fills are often allowed without a permit, but any work that changes drainage patterns, impacts wetlands, or involves large-scale grading may require City of Wylie or Collin County permits or engineered plans. Before importing large volumes, contact the Wylie Development Services or Collin County permitting office to confirm local rules and avoid potential code or neighbor issues.
Fill dirt is fine for raising grade and filling low spots, but it is not a durable wearing surface for driveways; it will rut, track, and hold water. For a long-lasting driveway in Wylie, use fill dirt only to establish grade, then install a compacted base of crushed stone or recycled concrete and a suitable top layer for traffic. Crushed stone and recycled concrete provide better drainage, load distribution, and lower maintenance in this climate.
In Wylie, plan for heavy rain events by maintaining a minimum surface slope, directing runoff to swales or storm systems, and avoiding concentrated flow over unprotected fill. Use geotextile fabric under the fill on steep slopes, add erosion control blankets or straw and seed, and install temporary silt fences during construction. For steep or exposed slopes, consider terracing, riprap, or professional stabilization to prevent washouts during storms.
Fill dirt used as a compacted subgrade and covered with an engineered base and surface can provide decades of reliable performance when installed with correct compaction and drainage. If left as a surface material, expect settlement and regrading in the first year and periodic maintenance thereafter; inspect after heavy rains and add material as needed. The most common maintenance is checking grades, re-compacting settled areas, and ensuring drainage features remain clear.
In addition to material cost, budget for compaction (equipment rental or contractor labor), grading, geotextile fabric, possible permit fees, and site preparation or clean-up. Delivery may be free in many areas, but tight access, long haul distances, or small orders can increase cost; Hello Gravel displays delivery charges during checkout. Get multiple quotes for spreading/compaction and factor in a small overage (5-10 percent) of material to cover settlement.
Some drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety when the truck arrives. You can request tailgate spreading in the order notes, and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely; for precise grading or placement hire a local contractor. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery but spreading is dependent on the contracted hauler.
Hello Gravel sources materials from trusted local suppliers, but natural fill dirt can vary by region; if you need clean, uncompacted fill for landscaping or near utilities, request material specifications or a source description in the order notes. For projects that require tested clean fill, ask the supplier for a materials report or consider ordering certified fill; if contamination is suspected, stop work and contact local environmental authorities.
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.
