    Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

    For beds, multiply length by width in feet, then by the depth in feet, and divide by 27 for cubic yards. For lawn topdressing, figure square footage and use a half inch depth, which comes out to roughly 1 cubic yard per 650 square feet. Order a little extra, since Dyersburg silt settles and compacts more than most soils after the first heavy rain.

    Finish new beds with 2 to 3 inches of hardwood mulch to stop the fresh soil from crusting, and add gravel or drainage stone under raised beds on flat Dyersburg lots that hold water.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Click a question to see the answer

    Answer

    What kind of soil is already in my Dyersburg yard?

    Most of Dyer County sits on wind deposited loess that weathers into a deep silt loam. It is naturally fertile and holds moisture well, but it is low in coarse particles, so it compacts easily and crusts on the surface after our frequent heavy rains.

    Answer

    Do I need topsoil or garden soil for a new raised bed?

    For raised vegetable beds in Dyersburg, garden soil or a topsoil and compost blend works best because it drains faster than our native silt while still holding summer moisture. Pure screened topsoil alone will settle tight in a raised box after a season of 50 inch rainfall.

    Answer

    How do I fix low spots that hold water after a storm?

    Fill with screened topsoil in 2 to 3 inch lifts, tamping lightly between lifts, and aim for a slope of about an inch per foot away from the house. Dyersburg silt loam settles noticeably, so overfill low spots by roughly 15 percent and expect to touch them up after the next big rain.

    Answer

    When should I topdress my lawn here?

    For fescue lawns, topdress with a thin compost and soil blend in early September when our nights cool and fall seeding takes hold. For bermuda or zoysia, wait until late May or June once the grass is actively growing and daytime temperatures are consistently in the 80s.

    Answer

    Will adding compost help my heavy garden spot?

    Yes. Working 2 to 3 inches of compost into the top 6 inches of Dyersburg silt loam separates those fine particles and dramatically improves both drainage and root penetration. Repeat annually, because our warm humid summers burn through organic matter faster than cooler climates do.

    Answer

    How much soil do I need to fill a 4 by 8 raised bed?

    A 4 by 8 bed filled 12 inches deep takes about 1.2 cubic yards, and 10 inches deep takes just under 1 yard. Most Dyersburg gardeners running three or four beds order 3 to 4 yards and use the extra to patch lawn low spots.

    Answer

    Can I plant right after the soil is delivered?

    You can, but rake it level and let it settle through one good rain first, then top off any dips. If you are planting before our April 5 last frost date, hold off on tender vegetables and stick to cool season crops until mid April.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Never work Dyersburg soil when it is wet. Squeeze a handful, and if it ribbons out between your fingers instead of crumbling, walk away for two days. Silt loam that is tilled or driven on while saturated smears into a dense, airless layer that can take two full seasons to recover. Our 50 inches of annual rainfall means the windows can be short, so watch the forecast and jump on the dry spells.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Build organic matter every single year. Our long, hot, humid summers accelerate microbial activity, which means the compost you added last spring is largely gone by the following spring. A yearly half inch to inch of compost worked into vegetable beds and topdressed on lawns keeps Dyersburg silt loam loose, dark, and draining. Skipping two or three years lets the soil slump back toward its compacted native state.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Grade before you plant, not after. On the flatter lots common around Dyersburg at just over 300 feet elevation, water has nowhere obvious to go, and a bed that sits level with the lawn will stay soggy for days after a storm. Bring in enough topsoil to raise planting areas 3 to 4 inches above the surrounding grade and pitch the surface away from the foundation. It is far cheaper than replacing drowned shrubs.

    The Unique Landscape of Dyersburg

    Dyersburg's native silt loam is fertile and easy to dig, but it is also low in organic matter and prone to compacting into a dense pan once builders have driven equipment across it. New subdivisions around Dyersburg often leave homeowners with scraped subsoil rather than the good topsoil the county is known for. Bringing in screened topsoil, garden soil, or compost rebuilds the structure our 50 inches of annual rain keeps washing thin. Blended soil also lets you build slight grade away from foundations, which matters on flat lots at our 312 foot elevation where water lingers after storms. With a growing season from roughly April 5 to October 28, good soil is what determines whether tomatoes, zoysia, and new shrubs actually take off.
