    I needed 3 yards of top soil and that's what I got! Right on time and right where I asked it to be placed (Order# 2041).

    For new lawns figure four to six inches of topsoil, for raised vegetable beds fill the full box depth of ten to twelve inches, and for topdressing established Coeur d'Alene turf a quarter to half inch of compost is plenty.

    Measure length and width in feet for each area, then decide your target depth in inches before you calculate. One cubic yard covers 100 square feet at three inches deep, or about 55 square feet at six inches. Soil settles more than mulch, so order roughly fifteen percent extra for anything you are filling.

    Finish with compost worked into the top few inches, then cap planting beds with mulch to keep that new soil from crusting during the dry Panhandle summer.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Click a question to see the answer

    Answer

    The builder left me nothing but hardpan. How much soil do I need to start a lawn?

    Plan on four to six inches of screened topsoil over tilled subsoil. That is common on newer Coeur d'Alene developments where the original topsoil was stripped. Anything less and roots hit the compacted layer by midsummer, right when our rainfall disappears and the lawn needs depth to survive.

    Answer

    When can I start working soil in the spring here?

    Usually mid April, but test it first. Squeeze a handful, and if it forms a sticky ball instead of crumbling, our silt loam is still too wet and tilling will destroy the structure. Most Coeur d'Alene yards are workable a couple of weeks before the May 5 last frost.

    Answer

    Do I need to amend soil for a vegetable garden in Coeur d'Alene?

    Yes. Our short season means every week counts, and a compost rich raised bed blend warms faster in spring than native silt loam, which stays cold and wet well into May. A 50/50 mix of screened topsoil and compost gives tomatoes and squash the head start they need before the October 8 frost.

    Answer

    Is our soil acidic or alkaline?

    Most soils around the Coeur d'Alene basin run slightly acidic to neutral, generally in the 6.0 to 7.0 range, thanks to conifer cover and decent rainfall. That suits most vegetables and lawns. Blueberries and rhododendrons often still want a sulfur or peat amendment, and a cheap test through the Kootenai County extension office will tell you exactly where you stand.

    Answer

    How much does a yard of soil weigh, and will it hurt my driveway?

    A cubic yard of moist screened topsoil runs about 2,200 to 2,400 pounds. Loads are not the problem, but a fully loaded truck can mark soft asphalt on a hot July afternoon. We can dump at the curb or on plywood if you are worried about a newer driveway.

    Answer

    Can I put soil down in the fall?

    Fall is actually an excellent time in Coeur d'Alene. Spreading soil and compost in late September gives winter freeze and thaw cycles a chance to break it into the native silt loam, and spring melt carries nutrients down into the root zone. Just get it done before the ground freezes hard, typically by early November.

    Answer

    Why does water pool in my yard after the snow melts?

    That is compacted silt loam. It holds water but drains slowly, and once construction equipment packs it down, snowmelt has nowhere to go. Core aerating and topdressing with a half inch of compost each fall opens the profile, and regrading low spots with screened topsoil solves the worst pockets.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Never spread topsoil over compacted ground without breaking it up first. On Coeur d'Alene lots the transition between fresh loam and packed subsoil forms a barrier, and roots turn sideways instead of going down. Rip or till the existing surface three to four inches deep, then blend your first inch of new soil into it. The result drains through the profile instead of perching water above the hardpan every April.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Build raised beds a bit taller than you think you need. Our silt loam stays cold and saturated into May, and a bed raised twelve to sixteen inches warms weeks earlier, which matters enormously when your frost free window closes around October 8. That extra height also drains freely during snowmelt, keeping garlic, strawberries, and overwintering perennials from rotting out during the wet Panhandle spring.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Add compost every year, not once. Coeur d'Alene's cool winters slow decomposition, but the organic matter you add still burns off through the growing season, and silt loam re compacts quickly under irrigation and foot traffic. A half inch topdress each fall keeps soil structure open, feeds earthworms, and steadily raises water holding capacity so beds coast through the dry August stretch.

    The Unique Landscape of Coeur d'Alene

    Native ground around Coeur d'Alene is silt loam, which is naturally fertile but fine textured and prone to compacting into a dense pan, especially on lots scraped flat during construction. New subdivisions from Riverstone out to the Prairie often leave homeowners with subsoil and construction fill rather than the good topsoil that was hauled off. Bringing in quality garden soil and compost is how you rebuild a root zone deep enough to carry plants through the dry stretch from July to September. At 2,247 feet with a growing season running roughly May 5 to October 8, plants have limited time to establish, so they need soil that drains and warms quickly in spring. Blended soil also raises beds above the saturated conditions that follow snowmelt on flatter Panhandle lots.
