Common Fill Dirt Jobs in Idaho

Most fill dirt projects fall into a few common shapes. The table below shows typical depths and what to order for each.

Idaho Climate and Soil Conditions for Fill Dirt

Across the cities we deliver to in Idaho, annual precipitation runs from about 10 to 30 inches. That range affects how quickly fill dirt drains and compacts. In wetter areas, you may need to allow extra time for the material to dry before compacting.

The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall. Freezing days range from about 127 to 214 days a year below 32F, depending on location. The severe frost band causes ground heaving, so fill must be compacted well and have good drainage to avoid movement.

Most of the served cities have soil in hydrologic groups B and C, meaning moderate to slow permeability. This reinforces the need for proper base depth and compaction to prevent settling over time. The Idaho Transportation Department runs a spring load-restriction program that can delay deliveries on certain routes during thaw. Plan your order accordingly.
