Buy Fill Dirt in North Dakota

In North Dakota, many rural and suburban properties need fill dirt to level uneven land, raise low areas, or fill old excavations. Gravel Monkey delivers fill dirt by the ton to any address across the state, with loads from 1 to 40-plus tons in a single dump truck.

Whether you are raising a building pad, burying a stump hole, or backfilling around a foundation, ordering fill dirt by the ton gives you control over the volume you need and the cost per ton. We source from regional suppliers, so the product you get matches the local geology.

Fill Dirt Grades and Uses in North Dakota

Fill dirt is unscreened soil with low organic content, meant for structural fill rather than planting. It compacts well and holds its shape under weight, making it the right choice for grading and support.

North Dakota Climate and Ground Conditions

Across the cities we deliver to in North Dakota, annual precipitation runs from about 18 to 24 inches. Freezing days range from about 178 to 192 days a year below 32F. Deep frost keeps the ground closed for months, so this work waits for the thaw rather than the calendar. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing, which means deeper footings and thicker base layers are needed for structures. Hydrologic groups B and C are the most common across the served cities. These soils drain moderately to slowly, so fill dirt placed over them should be built up in thin lifts and compacted well to avoid settling. The NDDOT runs a spring load-restriction program each year to protect roads during thaw. This can affect delivery timing for heavy loads in early spring, so plan your order accordingly.

How to Estimate How Much Fill Dirt You Need

Fill dirt is sold by the ton. To estimate volume, measure the length and width of the area in feet, multiply by the depth in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. One cubic yard of fill dirt weighs roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons depending on moisture. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert your project dimensions into tons.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fill Dirt in North Dakota

Do seasonal road restrictions in North Dakota affect delivery?

Yes. NDDOT runs a spring load-restriction program each year to protect roads during thaw. If your delivery date falls during that period, heavy loads may be limited or rerouted. Gravel Monkey will notify you of any impact and adjust the schedule if needed.

What conditions across North Dakota should change what I order?

Annual precipitation across the served cities runs from about 18 to 24 inches, and freezing days range from about 178 to 192 days a year. In areas with more rain, fill dirt should be compacted in thin lifts to prevent settling. Deeper frost penetration also means footings need to go below the freeze line, so order enough fill to bring grade up to that depth.

How is fill dirt measured and sold?

Fill dirt is sold by the ton, not by the cubic yard. The calculator on our site converts your project's volume into tons based on the typical weight of compacted fill dirt. Delivery is priced per ton and shown at checkout for your ZIP code.
