Wonderful experience! They put the mulch exactly where we wanted. This mulch spread very easily and didn’t have the usual “mulch smell.” We will definitely use again!

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 deep 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, rounding up rather than down since a shortfall mid project means a second delivery.

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!
Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!
Most fill dirt jobs finish with a layer of topsoil on top, since fill alone will not support grass or plant beds in our sandy conditions. If the project involves a pool deck or patio base, a compactable base material on top of the fill helps lock things in before pavers or concrete go down. Sod or seed comes last, once the topsoil cap is graded and settled.

Fill dirt is not something you dump and walk away from. Place it in lifts no deeper than 6 to 8 inches and compact each layer before adding the next. Skip this step and the sandy soil underneath combined with an uncompacted fill layer means your grade keeps sinking for a year or two, especially after Florida's summer rains saturate everything and the fill settles into any air gaps left behind.
A common mistake in Titusville yards is filling low spots right up to final grade with fill dirt and then trying to plant into it. Fill dirt has no organic matter and compacts too hard for roots to establish. Always cap with 4 to 6 inches of real topsoil before seeding or sodding, and keep that boundary in mind when you are ordering so you budget for both materials, not just one.
If your project needs both fill and topsoil, order them as separate deliveries rather than trying to blend them on site, it is faster to place each material correctly and keeps your compaction lifts clean. Since fill dirt is priced by the yard and used in bulk, slightly overestimating your volume costs less in the long run than running short and paying for a second short delivery.
At 7 feet of elevation, standing water and low pockets are a real issue for yards around Titusville, and fill dirt is usually the first step in fixing that. The native sandy soil here does not hold shape well on its own, so raised areas built without proper fill tend to settle and wash out again within a season. We see a lot of demand for this material around pool installs and foundation backfill, where the ground needs real structure before anything else goes on top. It is not a growing medium, so plan on capping with topsoil once the grade is where you want it.
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.
