How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
One cubic yard of fill dirt covers about 54 square feet at a 6 inch depth, and this material runs 1.3 tons per yard so weight adds up fast on larger orders. Most structural fill jobs call for 6 to 12 inches, so figure your square footage, decide on depth within that range, and scale from the 54 square foot baseline. For anything past a small low spot, it is worth measuring twice since underestimating means a second delivery.

First time going with this company for mulch and it was an efficient process from start to finish. Website was easy—I told them exactly where I wanted the mulch put on my driveway, and it was delivered perfectly when I got home from work the next day. Best deal around when I compared it to competitors and I will definitely be becoming back.
Complete Your Outdoor Project
Fill dirt is a base layer, not a finish, so most jobs around here pair it with topsoil capped on top wherever grass or plants need to grow. If you're building up a bed or leveling before landscaping, ordering both together in the right ratio saves a second delivery trip.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Silt loam like what's common around Coshocton compacts differently than sandy soil, it can look solid on top while staying loose underneath. Place fill in lifts of 6 to 8 inches and compact each layer before adding the next, don't dump it all at once and grade it flat. Skipping this step is the number one reason people end up with a sunken patch two years later, especially near foundations where standing water makes it worse.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Fill dirt is not a growing medium and won't support turf or plants on its own, it needs a topsoil cap if anything is going in on top. A common mistake is spreading fill and seeding directly into it, which usually fails because the subsoil lacks the organic structure roots need. Plan for at least a few inches of topsoil over any fill area that's going to be planted.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
If you're filling a large low area, it often makes sense to order fill dirt for the bulk of the depth and cap the top few inches with topsoil rather than paying for topsoil throughout. This keeps cost down since fill dirt is a lower cost structural material, while still giving you a workable growing layer where it matters. Just keep the fill compacted before the topsoil goes on.
Grading and Filling in Coshocton
Coshocton sits on silt loam that holds water and settles slowly once disturbed, which is exactly why fill dirt needs to go in compacted, not just dumped and graded. A lot of the older lots around Roscoe Village and the canal area have uneven grading from decades of settling, and property owners here are often raising low corners of yards or leveling ground before a shed or patio goes in. With frost reaching down by late October and the ground staying workable into early May, most fill projects here get done in the warmer stretch when the silt loam isn't saturated or frozen. Working wet silt loam just makes a mess and compacts poorly, so timing matters as much as material.
What Clean Fill Is
Clean fill is screened subsoil free of debris, roots, and contaminants. It is made for volume and grade, and it compacts predictably, which is exactly what you want under slabs, in trenches, and behind walls.
Fill Dirt vs Topsoil
Fill dirt builds the shape of the ground, topsoil grows things on top of it. Bring the grade up with fill, then cap it with 4 to 6 inches of topsoil anywhere grass or plants are going in.
Compact in Lifts
Place fill in layers of 4 to 6 inches and compact each one before adding the next. Dumping the full depth at once leaves voids that settle later, and settling is the one problem fill is supposed to solve.
