Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Massachusetts address and unloads right where you point.
Homeowners and contractors buy fill dirt for different reasons. A homeowner often needs one load to raise a low yard or fill a stump hole. A contractor might order several loads to backfill a foundation or build a pad. Gravel Monkey delivers fill dirt across Massachusetts by the ton, priced at checkout for any address.
Fill dirt is structural soil with no organic matter. It compacts well and does not settle over time. That makes it the right choice for grading, backfill, and building up a base before placing topsoil.
Fill dirt is sold as a single product. It is clean, compactable, and suitable for structural work. The table below shows what it is used for.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Clean material that compacts firmly for long-term support. |
Fill dirt solves several common problems on a property. Each project needs the right depth and compaction. The table below matches the job to the order.

Across the cities we deliver to in Massachusetts, annual precipitation runs from about 48 to 51 inches. Fill dirt in low areas should be shaped to shed that water. The state records about 115 to 153 days a year below 32F, depending on location. That freeze-thaw cycle means ground can be frozen in winter, pushing work to warmer months. Most of this work runs spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch. The dominant soil hydrologic groups are A and D, so some areas drain fast and others hold moisture. A thicker fill dirt base may be needed on group D soils to keep water away from structures.
