Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your New Jersey address and unloads right where you point.
Fill dirt work in New Jersey picks up when the ground thaws and again after the summer heat breaks. The window for placement is wide, but winter does close the ground for a stretch each year. Gravel Monkey delivers fill dirt across New Jersey by the ton, direct to your address, with a delivery window you pick at checkout.
Fill dirt is a structural material. It has no organic content, so it settles predictably and supports weight without rotting. Whether you are backfilling a foundation or raising a low yard, this is the product for building stable ground.
Fill dirt is the one product for structural fill work in New Jersey. It compacts well and does not decompose. Order it by the ton for any job that needs a solid base.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Clean, screened fill with no organic matter for stable base work. |
These five project types call for fill dirt. Depth depends on the load, but the table below gives a starting point for each.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | 6 to 12 inches in lifts, compacted |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill to grade, allow for settlement |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | 4 to 8 inches compacted |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | 2 to 3 inches rolled |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | 6 inches per lift, compacted |
Across the cities we deliver to in New Jersey, annual precipitation runs from about 47 to 52 inches. That moisture means fill dirt placed below grade needs adequate compaction and drainage. The state sees about 77 to 114 freezing days a year, depending on location, which slows ground work in winter. Most of New Jersey sits in the moderate band for ground freezing, so base depth guidance typically follows the moderate frost line.
The most common soil groups in the served areas are A/D and A. These soils drain well on the A side but can be seasonally wet on the D side. Where the soil stays wet, you may need a thicker base layer of fill dirt to keep the structure above the water table. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
