Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Pecos address and unloads right where you point.
Fill dirt is ordered by the ton, and projects in Pecos typically run from a single ton to 40-plus-ton loads. Whether you are raising a low yard or backfilling a foundation, the quantity is calculated from the volume you need to fill.
Pecos receives about 16 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage planning is important when you are placing fill. A well-placed fill layer helps manage water flow around structures.
Fill dirt from Gravel Monkey is structural material with no organic content. It is used to raise grade, fill holes, and backfill around foundations.

Pecos has about 168 freezing days a year, which affects the work window. The ground freezes and thaws, so fill placed in cold weather may settle differently. Most of this work runs spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch.
Soils mapped in the Pecos area are commonly well drained, which means less base stone is needed under the fill. The ground around Pecos is in hydrologic group B, meaning it takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depth is usually enough.
Snowfall adds about 26 inches a year, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground is important. A loose surface can be damaged by plowing after a heavy snow.
