Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Alabama address and unloads right where you point.
Gravel Monkey delivers fill dirt across Alabama by the ton. Fill dirt is the structural base for raising grade, filling holes, and backfilling around foundations. It contains no organic matter, so it compacts well and resists settling over time.
Whether you need to level a yard, bury a stump hole, or build up a pad, fill dirt gets the job done. Order online and a dump truck brings the load to your address.
Fill dirt is the single product we stock for structural fill work. It comes in loads from 1 to over 40 tons. Use it anywhere you need stable ground below the surface.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | No organic content; compacts well for stable foundations |
Each project needs a different depth of fill. The table below gives typical guidance for Alabama applications.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Fill to within 1 foot of finished grade |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill to match surrounding grade |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Compact in 6- to 8-inch lifts |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Add 2 to 4 inches for general grade raise |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Fill to final grade, compact as you go |
Across the cities we deliver to in Alabama, annual precipitation runs from about 56 to 68 inches. The state sees about 25 to 70 days a year below 32 degrees F, depending on the location. Most of the state sits in the negligible band for ground freezing. With no hard freeze to work around, the timing question is moisture rather than season.
The dominant soil groups in the areas we serve are hydrologic groups B and C. This means water drains moderately to slowly, so base depth guidance for fill projects stays conservative. Plan for compaction in lifts to avoid settling in wet conditions.
