One cubic yard covers about 54 square feet at a 6 inch depth, and most fill jobs run 6 to 12 inches depending on how much grade you're correcting. Measure the low area in square feet, decide your target depth, and figure your yardage from there, then add a bit extra since compaction will settle the material down. If you're capping with topsoil afterward, size that separately since it's a different material with different coverage.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.
Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.
Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

Most fill dirt jobs in Greenville get capped with a few inches of topsoil once the grade is set, especially if grass or beds are going back in. If you're building up a large low area, some customers layer in a coarser base material first for drainage before the fill goes on top. Either way, plan your topsoil or planting material as a separate order once your fill is compacted and settled.
Service area
Greenville's clay subsoil means water doesn't move through the ground quickly, so if you're filling near a foundation or pool, slope the final grade away from the structure before you cap with topsoil. A flat or low spot in fill dirt over clay will hold water after every storm. Take the extra hour to check your grade with a level before you consider the job done, it saves a callback later.
The most common mistake we see is dumping fill dirt in one deep pour instead of building it up in lifts. Fill dirt that isn't compacted in 6 to 8 inch layers will keep settling for a year or more, leaving dips right where you thought you'd leveled the ground. Compact each lift with a plate compactor or even repeated passes with a hand tamper before adding the next layer, it's slower but it's the only way the fill actually holds its grade.
Fill dirt is a structural material, not something to grow in, so don't waste money buying extra to use as a planting bed. Order just enough fill to reach your target grade, then cap the top few inches with topsoil where grass or plants are going in. Buying fill and topsoil separately, sized for their actual jobs, is more efficient than over-ordering one material to do both.
Greenville's clay soil holds water and settles unevenly, which is why so many yards near the Reedy River and older neighborhoods develop low spots and soggy corners over time. Fill dirt gives you a structural base to correct that grade before anything else happens, whether it's leveling ground for a patio or backfilling after pool installation. Because the native soil is already clay heavy, we screen our fill dirt of debris and roots so you're not compacting problems into the ground for years. This is subsoil, not topsoil, so it's meant to build elevation, not grow anything.
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 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.
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.
