Our fill dirt is a clean, inorganic material for building up and supporting ground. It is not topsoil and contains no organic matter that would decompose and settle.
| Product | Use for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Compacts well; best under structures or slabs |
The same fill dirt works for many projects. Depth depends on load and settling.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Raising a low yard | Fill dirt | 6 to 12 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Building up a pad | Fill dirt | 4 to 8 inches, depending on final grade |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill dirt | Place and compact in 6-inch layers |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill dirt | Fill to grade; expect settling |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill dirt | Depth varies; order extra for compaction |
Across the cities we deliver to in Delaware, annual precipitation runs from about 47 to 48 inches. That much rain means good drainage is critical, so the dominant hydrologic soil groups A and B in most served areas help with base depth guidance.
Freezing days range from about 79 to 96 days a year below 32F, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
These conditions mean fill dirt should be placed and compacted before the freeze, or after the thaw, to avoid frost heave. The moderate frost band does not usually require extra deep foundations for typical fill applications.
We deliver to addresses across Delaware, not limited to these cities:

Fill dirt is sold by the ton, and the volume you need depends on the area and depth. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert square footage and depth to tons. Order a little extra to account for compaction and settling.

Gravel Monkey does not have specific information on seasonal road restrictions; check with local authorities. Delivery dates are set at checkout and we will inform you of any delays.
Annual precipitation across the served cities runs from 47 to 48 inches, so fill dirt with proper compaction and drainage is key. The dominant hydrologic soil groups A and B in most areas influence base depth guidance. For areas with lower group B, a deeper base may be needed.
Fill dirt is often paired with topsoil for the surface layer, or with crushed stone for drainage. For driveways, a gravel or crushed concrete finish goes on top. Many orders combine fill dirt for the base and a separate material for the finished grade.
