One cubic yard of fill dirt covers about 54 square feet at a 6 inch depth, and most structural jobs run 6 to 12 inches depending on how much grade you need to make up. Measure the low area, decide your target depth, and order in cubic yards from there. For anything over a few inches, plan on multiple compacted lifts rather than one deep pour.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 100-160 square feet at a 2-3 inch depth.

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 jobs finish with a cap of topsoil once the grade is set, since fill dirt is not meant to grow anything on its own. If sod or planting beds are the end goal, order topsoil alongside your fill and keep it as a separate top layer rather than mixing the two.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Do not dump fill dirt in one deep pour. In Pompano Beach's sandy, high water table conditions, an uncompacted deep fill will keep settling for years, cracking pool decks and slabs above it. Place it in 6 to 8 inch lifts and compact each one with a plate compactor before adding the next. It is slower, but it is the difference between a stable pad and a callback in two years.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake we see is treating fill dirt like topsoil and planting straight into it. Fill dirt is subsoil, it has none of the organic matter or structure plants need. Always cap your finished grade with a few inches of real topsoil before sod or beds go in, and keep that cap as a distinct layer instead of tilling it into the fill.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If you are building up a large low area, order fill dirt for the bulk of the volume and finish with topsoil only where things need to grow, rather than topsoil throughout. Fill costs less per yard to move in bulk and does the structural job just as well, so you are not paying growing medium prices for material that ends up buried two feet down.

Grading and Filling in Pompano Beach

At 10 feet of elevation, standing water and low spots are a real problem across Pompano Beach, and the native sandy soil does not hold a shape once it is disturbed. Fill dirt gives you a structural base that will not wash out from under a pool deck, patio slab, or foundation the way loose sand will. It is the material people around here use to bring a yard up to grade before pouring anything or laying sod. This is not a growing medium, it is the bones under your project.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

Is fill dirt the same as topsoil?

No. Fill dirt is subsoil screened of debris, used to raise grade and backfill structurally. It has little organic matter and will not support planting on its own. Topsoil goes on top as a growing layer once your grade is set. Most Pompano Beach jobs use both, fill for volume and topsoil as the cap.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need to fill a low spot in my yard?

One cubic yard covers about 54 square feet at 6 inches deep. Measure your low area's square footage, decide how deep you need to fill it, typically 6 to 12 inches, and calculate from there. A 300 square foot low spot at 6 inches needs roughly 5.5 cubic yards.

Answer

Can I just dump the fill and build on it right away?

No, and this matters especially in sandy, low elevation ground like Pompano Beach's. Place fill in 6 to 8 inch lifts and compact each one before adding more. Uncompacted fill will keep settling under a slab, deck, or pool for years, which shows up as cracks and uneven surfaces later.

Answer

Where will the truck put the fill dirt on delivery day?

We place the load as close to your work area as your driveway or access point allows. Clear a path beforehand and mark where you want it dropped. If your site has tight access, tell us ahead of time so we can plan the delivery accordingly.

Answer

Do I need topsoil instead of fill dirt for my project?

Depends on the goal. If you are raising grade, backfilling a foundation, or building up before construction, fill dirt is the right structural material. If you are planting sod or a garden bed, you need topsoil on top. Many jobs here use fill dirt for bulk and cap it with topsoil where growth is needed.
