Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your O Brien address and unloads right where you point.
O Brien gets about 54 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any fill dirt job. That rainfall keeps the ground moist, which means you need to think about how water moves through the site before you spread fill.
Fill dirt is the structural layer that supports patios, sheds, and raised yards. It has no organic matter, so it settles predictably and holds its shape under weight.
We sell one type of fill dirt for O Brien. It is the same material contractors use for backfill and grade work.
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Clean, mineral soil with no compost or organic content. Compacts well. |
Every project has a different depth requirement. Use this table as a starting point.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill to level and compact in lifts |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Fill to grade, compact every 6 inches |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Uniform layer 4 to 6 inches deep |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Fill to required elevation, compact |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Fill to grade, compact in thin lifts |
O Brien records about 77 wet days a year where at least a tenth of an inch of rain falls. Scheduling your fill dirt delivery onto firm ground avoids having the truck bog down or the material wash out before you spread it.
Ground around O Brien is in hydrologic group A, meaning it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. That reduces the amount of drainage base stone you need under fill dirt. The soil here is commonly moderately well drained, so the area guidance is to plan for more or less base stone under the surface layer depending on your exact spot.
About 26 days a year drop below 32F in O Brien. Freezing and thawing can make the ground heave, so complete your fill dirt work before the first hard freeze or after the ground thaws in spring. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
Measure the area you want to cover and the depth you plan to fill. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert those dimensions into tons before you order.

Fill dirt pairs with these materials for a complete project.
Yes. O Brien sees about 26 freezing days per year. If the ground is frozen, fill dirt cannot be spread and compacted properly. Order and schedule your delivery for a time when the soil is workable, either before the first freeze or after the spring thaw.
O Brien has about 77 wet days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Wet ground makes it hard for a dump truck to access the site and can turn fill dirt into mud. Plan your delivery for a dry stretch, and check the forecast before you confirm the window.
