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 most structural fill jobs run 6 to 12 inches depending on how much grade you need to make up. Measure the low area in square feet, decide your target depth, and order in cubic yards from there. For deeper fills, plan on compacting in lifts rather than dumping the full depth at once.

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
Most fill dirt jobs finish with a topsoil cap once the fill is compacted, since nothing grows in raw subsoil. If the area will see grass or beds, order topsoil for the top few inches, and if drainage is a concern near a foundation, a layer of gravel underneath the fill can help move water away from the structure.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Little Rock's clay and silt subsoil already drains slowly, so when you're filling a low spot, do not just dump fill dirt and walk away. Place it in lifts of 6 to 8 inches and compact each layer with a plate compactor or by wetting and tamping before adding the next. Skipping this step is the single biggest reason yards here keep sinking in the same spot two winters later.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
A common mistake is treating fill dirt like topsoil and trying to plant directly into it. It has no organic matter and compacts hard, so grass seed and plants will struggle or fail. Always cap finished fill with a few inches of real topsoil before seeding or landscaping, and keep the fill itself strictly for the structural base underneath.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
If your project also needs drainage work, order fill dirt and gravel together so both loads land the same trip instead of scheduling two separate deliveries. Pairing materials this way is especially useful for foundation backfill jobs, where a gravel layer against the wall paired with fill dirt further out handles both structure and water movement in one pass.
Grading and Filling in Little Rock
Little Rock sits on clay and silt that holds water and settles unevenly, which is exactly why raw fill dirt matters here. When a yard has a low spot that ponds after a spring storm, or a foundation needs building up before the slab goes in, this is the material that does the structural work. It is not meant to grow anything on its own, it is meant to hold shape under weight and compact into a stable base. On lots near the river bottoms around the city, getting the base right before you cap with topsoil is what keeps a yard from resettling every wet season.
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.
