Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Lebanon address and unloads right where you point.
A dump truck backs onto your property, and you point out where the load goes. That is how bulk fill dirt arrives when you order by the ton from Gravel Monkey. The ground around Lebanon is in hydrologic group D, meaning rainfall tends to run across the surface rather than soaking in. Planning for drainage matters when you are adding fill dirt to raise grade or fill a low area.
Fill dirt is the structural base for any project that needs stable, compacted ground. Unlike topsoil, it contains no organic matter and will not settle or decompose over time. One drop delivers the material you need, and you spread and compact it yourself.
Fill dirt is the workhorse under the finish layer. It provides load-bearing support for patios, lawns, and driveways. The table below shows the one product we offer in this category.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Screened and free of debris, suitable as a base layer |
Choosing fill dirt for a job is often the budget-conscious, long-term solution for changing the shape of the land. The table below shows five typical uses and how to approach them.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Compacted in lifts to prevent settling |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill to grade and compact well |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Compact in layers for stability |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Layer and compact thoroughly |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Use for leveling and grading |
Lebanon gets about 46 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage planning is essential when placing fill dirt. The county's soils are commonly somewhat poorly drained, so a deeper base of stone may be needed under the surface layer.
With about 69 days a year that see at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling your delivery for firm ground is important. Most of this work runs spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch. About 100 freezing days a year drop below 32F, which can cause ground movement and affect how fill settles.
The ground around Lebanon takes water in very slowly. Most rain runs across the surface, so drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere. Snowfall of about 8 inches a year can also lead to plowing damage on a loose fill surface.
The amount of fill dirt you need depends on the area and desired depth. A cubic yard covers roughly 100 square feet at 3 inches deep, but exact tonnage varies by material density. Use our fill dirt calculator to get a precise estimate for your Lebanon project.

The tonnage depends on the area and depth of your fill. Because soils in Lebanon are commonly somewhat poorly drained, you may need a thicker base layer. Use our fill dirt calculator for a tailored estimate.
