How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
Fill dirt is sold by the cubic yard, and one yard covers about 54 square feet at a 6 inch depth. Most structural jobs here call for 6 to 12 inches, so a small foundation backfill might run 2 to 4 yards while a full low-yard regrade can climb into double digits. Measure the low area's length and width, decide your target depth, and order in yard increments rather than guessing.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.

We have always spread our own mulch for the past 24 years. This was our first time with the Mulch Mound - things I liked: they have online ordering and provide a digital receipt which means you can remember how much you ordered (I always forget for the next year!), they were on time, they were able to deliver in 48 hours, they were generous with the portion (we got 9 yards and it felt like a FULL nine yards!), the driver was polite! We have ordered from reputable places, and there is always a little trash in the mulch. The mulch we recv'd from Mulch Mound had barely any... we were pleasant surprised!!! Color was great! Not to mention - the price was competitive and LOWER than other mulch places around. We will use again !! Highly recommend! Thanks Mulch Mound!
Complete Your Outdoor Project
Fill dirt does the structural work, but it is not meant to grow anything on its own. Most Greenfield jobs cap the compacted fill with a few inches of topsoil before seeding or sod, especially on regrades that will see lawn again. If you're backfilling near a foundation, a layer of gravel underneath can help with drainage before the fill goes in.

Areas we deliver fill dirt in Greenfield, Wisconsin
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Do not dump fill dirt in one deep pour and walk away. Place it in 6 to 8 inch lifts and compact each layer with a plate compactor or hand tamper before adding the next. Greenfield's silt loam settles unevenly if it is left loose, and skipping this step is the main reason people see a sunken patch reappear near a foundation a year or two later.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Fill dirt is not a growing medium, so if the area needs lawn or plantings, cap the compacted fill with several inches of topsoil before seeding. A common mistake is spreading grass seed directly on subsoil and wondering why nothing establishes, the fill has no organic matter or nutrients to support root growth.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
If your project also needs topsoil for finishing, order both in the same delivery window to save on separate trips. Fill dirt handles the volume and structure at a lower cost than topsoil, so reserving topsoil for just the top few inches keeps the job efficient without sacrificing what actually needs to grow.
Grading and Filling in Greenfield
Greenfield's silt loam holds water and compacts unevenly, so low spots near foundations and along fence lines tend to stay soft or puddle after the spring thaw. Fill dirt gives you a structural base to correct that grade before anything else goes on top. With frost reaching down through winter and the ground moving as it freezes and thaws, a properly compacted fill layer resists the heaving that loose or unscreened soil does not. Most calls we get here are pool backfills, foundation regrades, and low yard corners that never drain right.
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.
