Fill dirt is a structural soil material used to raise low yards, fill holes, and backfill around foundations. It contains no organic matter, so it will not settle or decompose like topsoil.
The most common order in Driggs is our Fill Dirt. It is clean, screened soil that compacts well, making it ideal for raising grade, filling holes, and backfill. For most residential jobs, a single order of fill dirt is enough.

Soils mapped in the Driggs area are commonly well drained. That usually means you need less base stone under the surface layer. But with about 25 inches of precipitation a year, you still need good drainage around foundations and low areas.
About 113 inches of snow each year can cause plowing damage to a loose fill surface, so compact the surface before winter. The ground freezes deep and long here, which limits when you can work the soil. The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall.
