Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Texarkana address and unloads right where you point.
When you order fill dirt from Gravel Monkey, a dump truck arrives at your address and drops the load where you mark the spot. The driver handles the delivery and you direct the placement. Texarkana gets about 52 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage and washout planning important for any fill project.
The truck carries 1 to 40-plus tons in a single drop, and the price is calculated by ZIP at checkout. There is no yard to visit; the material comes directly to your property.
Fill dirt is a structural base material with no organic matter. It is used for raising grade and backfill, while topsoil is the growing layer that goes on top. The table below shows the product available for delivery in Texarkana.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Unscreened natural soil, compacts well and is economical for large fills |
For long-term stability, fill dirt is the budget option for bulk volume, while the finished surface layer like topsoil or gravel is what you see. The table below lists typical projects and what to order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Depends on planned finished grade |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Fill to match adjacent soil level |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill in layers, compact as you go |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Add fill to raise grade by needed height |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Backfill in lifts to avoid settling |
Texarkana sees about 46 days a year where temperatures drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift an unstable base, so proper compaction of fill dirt matters. The ground freezing here is moderate but real, affecting when the ground is workable and how much it settles.
The area gets about 52 inches of precipitation annually, with roughly 67 days bringing at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That moisture means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important to avoid sinking the truck or losing load quality.
Soils mapped in the Texarkana area are commonly moderately well drained, but the ground around Texarkana is in hydrologic group C, meaning it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That behavior makes a deeper drainage layer earn its place beneath the fill for long-term stability. Most of this work runs spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch.
To figure out how many tons of fill dirt you need, measure the length, width, and depth of the area to be filled. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert those dimensions into tons. The calculator accounts for compaction and can handle irregular shapes.

Fill dirt often goes under a finished surface layer. These materials pair well with it:
