Buy Fill Dirt in Ohio

Fill dirt is the backbone of any job that changes the shape of the ground. The delivered price depends on how many tons you need and how far the truck has to travel. Gravel Monkey delivers fill dirt across Ohio by the ton, with pricing set by your ZIP code at checkout.

Our business model keeps the cost in check. We source from a network of regional suppliers, so the material is never shipped across the country. You order online, choose a delivery window, and a dump truck brings the load to your address.

Fill Dirt Options for Ohio Projects

Fill dirt is not a growing medium. It contains no organic matter and is meant for structural use. It compacts well and does not settle the way topsoil can. This product is not suitable for planting beds or lawns.

Common Fill Dirt Projects in Ohio

Fill dirt works for any job that needs volume below grade. The table below lists typical projects and the approximate depth to plan for.

Ohio's Climate and Soil Conditions for Fill Dirt

Annual precipitation across the Ohio cities we serve runs from about 39 to 45 inches. That means the ground can stay wet through winter, and fill dirt that is placed and compacted properly will hold up better in the freeze-thaw cycle. The dominant soil groups across the served areas are hydrologic groups C and C/D, which have moderate to slow drainage. This means the base depth for fill dirt projects should be generous enough to keep water away from structures.

Freezing temperatures occur on about 111 to 130 days a year, depending on location. Most of the state falls in the moderate band for ground freezing. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it. Fill dirt placed in cold weather may not compact as well, so aim for spring or fall deliveries when the ground is workable.
