How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
How Much Fill Dirt Do I Need?
One cubic yard covers about 54 square feet at a 6 inch depth, so a 10 by 10 foot low spot needs roughly 2 cubic yards to bring it level. For deeper builds, like raising a pad 12 inches before a slab or pool deck, plan on double that per square foot. Measure the area you are filling and the depth you need, then order by the cubic yard rather than guessing, since underordering means a second delivery and a delay mid-project.

Complete Your Outdoor Project
Fill dirt is rarely the last layer. Most jobs here cap it with a few inches of topsoil once the grade is set, especially if sod or planting beds are going in on top. If you are building a pad for a shed or pool equipment, a layer of compacted base material on top of the fill can help with long-term stability in our sandy ground.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Do not dump fill dirt in one thick layer and walk away. In West Palm Beach's sandy soil, uncompacted fill can settle unevenly for a full rainy season, leaving dips right where you least want them, like against a pool deck or foundation. Place it in 6 to 8 inch lifts and compact each one with a plate compactor or hand tamper before adding the next. It takes longer up front but saves you from redoing the grading work after the first big storm.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
A common mistake on flat coastal lots is filling low spots without checking where the water is actually supposed to go afterward. Raising one section of yard can just push drainage problems onto a neighbor's lot or back toward your own foundation. Before you order, walk the property after a rain if you can, note where water pools and moves, and grade your fill so it slopes gently away from structures rather than just filling the visible dip.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
If your project needs both fill and topsoil, order them as separate deliveries rather than trying to blend them, since mixing subsoil into your topsoil layer just dilutes the good stuff you paid for. Use fill dirt to get the elevation and shape right first, compact it, then cap with a few inches of topsoil only where something needs to actually grow. It is a more efficient use of both materials and it shows in how the finished grade holds up.
Grading and Filling in West Palm Beach
West Palm Beach sits at 21 feet of elevation on sandy soil that drains fast but also settles fast when it is loose. A lot of the fill work here is about correcting low spots that hold water after our summer downpours, or building pad height before a pool deck or slab goes in near the coast. Because the native soil is sandy, fill dirt needs to be compacted in lifts here more than it would in a clay-heavy region, or you will see settling months later. This is structural material for shaping the ground, not for growing anything directly in it.
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.
