Topsoil ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Avon address and unloads right where you point.
Ordering topsoil for an Avon project starts with the ton. A cubic yard of topsoil weighs roughly 1.1 to 1.3 tons, depending on moisture content. Avon gets about 58 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when placing the new layer.
For smaller jobs like a raised bed, you may need a few tons; for larger areas like a new lawn, you might need 20 tons or more. The truck delivers directly to your address, and you mark the drop spot.
Topsoil is sold by the ton. For smaller jobs you can order a few tons; for larger areas you might need 20 tons or more. The table below shows the one product we carry for this job.

Avon gets about 58 inches of precipitation a year, which means the topsoil you place needs good drainage to avoid washout. With about 80 days a year that bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important so the truck can access the site without rutting.
About 18 days a year drop below 32F, which can cause some ground movement as freeze and thaw cycles occur. The ground around Avon is in hydrologic group A, meaning it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. This behavior reduces the amount of drainage stone needed under the surface. Soils mapped in the Avon area are commonly moderately well drained, which affects how much base stone goes under the topsoil. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
To estimate the tons required for your project, measure the area in square feet and the intended depth in inches. A cubic yard of topsoil covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep. Use Gravel Monkey’s material calculators to get a precise tonnage based on your dimensions.
