Before you take fill dirt

  • Ask what it is: native soil, clay, sand, or screened topsoil. Structural fill and garden topsoil are not interchangeable.
  • Ask whether it is clean: no trash, concrete chunks, roots or organics, and nothing from a contaminated site.
  • Ask for a soils report or proctor test if it is going under a slab, a road or a footing.
  • Plan the trucks: one tandem load is about 12 cubic yards, so 100 cubic yards is about 9 loads.
