Topsoil ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Lewisville address and unloads right where you point.
A typical topsoil project around Lewisville might call for 5 to 15 tons of material. That volume covers a new lawn, a set of raised beds, or regrading a sloped section of the yard.
Lewisville gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year. That means topsoil needs to drain well, and you want a grade that sends water away from the house instead of holding it.
Gravel Monkey delivers topsoil by the ton straight to your address. The table below shows what it is used for and what to expect when it arrives.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Topsoil | Lawns, beds, regrading the growing layer | Screened and blended for consistent organic content. |
These five jobs come up often around the county. Each one needs a different depth and coverage plan.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Raised beds and gardens | Topsoil | 6 to 12 inches, depending on crop type |
| Over-seeding topdress | Topsoil | 1/4 to 1/2 inch, raked into existing grass |
| New lawn | Topsoil | 4 to 6 inches over a prepared subgrade |
| Leveling low spots in a yard | Topsoil | Add 1 to 3 inches, then seed or sod |
| Regrading after construction | Topsoil | 2 to 4 inches on the finish grade |
About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days means scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters, so the truck does not rut the site.
Freezing temperatures occur on roughly 98 days a year. The freeze-thaw cycle can shift an unstable base, so compacting the subgrade before spreading topsoil helps keep it level. Snowfall averages about 4 inches a year, and plowing that snow can tear up a loose surface if the topsoil was spread late in the year.
The ground around Lewisville takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer under the topsoil earns its place in beds and lawns that stay wet. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Measure the area in square feet and multiply by the depth in inches, then divide by 324 to get the approximate tonnage. Gravel Monkey's material calculators can do that math for you based on the project size.
Order online by the ton, and the delivery price is calculated by ZIP at checkout. A dump truck brings the load to your address, with loads ranging from 1 to 40 or more tons. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders, and first-time customers can use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off.
You choose a delivery window at checkout: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date. You get an email confirmation, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.
You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the window. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. Learn more about how it works on the delivery information page, see about Gravel Monkey, and read customer reviews.
Pairing topsoil with another material often solves a problem the topsoil does not handle alone.
Spring and fall work best because the ground is not frozen and the soil is workable. Lewisville has about 98 freezing days a year, so ordering in March or October usually avoids the coldest weeks and leaves time for the soil to settle before summer heat or winter rain.
The smallest load is 1 ton. That is enough for a small bed or a light topdress. With about 79 wet days a year, scheduling a small load onto firm ground is straightforward and avoids waiting for a dry spell.
No. You or someone you nominate must be available during the delivery window. If no one is there, the delivery cannot be completed, and a missed delivery or redelivery fee may apply. The order is not refunded in that case.
Order at least 3 business days before your desired delivery date. You choose the date at checkout, and the earliest available slot is 3 business days after the order date. Ordering a week ahead is common so the schedule is locked in.
Order online, choose a window, and a dump truck brings the load to the spot you mark. The price is calculated by your ZIP at checkout, and the first order includes $50 off with code FIRSTTIMER50. Visit the Lewisville hub to start.
