Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your New York address and unloads right where you point.
Contractors and homeowners often approach fill dirt from different angles. A contractor usually knows the tonnage down to the decimal, while a homeowner might be filling a stump hole or raising a low spot for the first time. Gravel Monkey serves both: we deliver fill dirt by the ton to any address in New York, with pricing set by your ZIP code at checkout.
Fill dirt is the structural layer beneath driveways, patios, and lawns. It compacts well and stays stable, but it has no organic matter, so it is not topsoil. Your project gets the right material without over-ordering.
Fill dirt from Gravel Monkey is a screened, consistent blend that works for raising grade, filling holes, and backfill. One product covers most structural jobs.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Screened to remove large debris and compacted for stability. |
Here are five typical projects that call for fill dirt. Each row shows what to order and a rough depth.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Compact in lifts |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Fill in layers to avoid settling |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | 6 to 12 inches after compaction |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill to ground level |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | 4 to 8 inches, depending on grade |
Across the cities Gravel Monkey delivers to in New York, annual precipitation runs from 37 to 48 inches. That moisture can wash out uncompacted fill, so good drainage is essential. Your fill should be properly compacted and graded away from structures.
Freezing days range from 88 to 167 a year below 32F. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. Deep frost keeps the ground closed for months, so this work waits for the thaw rather than the calendar.
The most common soil hydrologic groups across the served cities are A and B, meaning they drain well. That affects the base depth you need for stability; a well-draining subgrade often requires less base material than a clay-heavy one.
