Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your New Philadelphia address and unloads right where you point.
Fill dirt and topsoil are not the same thing. Fill dirt is structural, with no organic matter. It is used to raise grade, fill holes, and backfill. Topsoil is the growing layer that goes on top of it.
New Philadelphia gets about 41 inches of precipitation a year. That matters for drainage and washout planning when you prepare the site. Order fill dirt to build a stable base that holds up in wet conditions.
Fill dirt is not for planting. Use it where you need a compactable, load-bearing material. It is clean soil with no organic matter, so it will not settle or rot.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Clean, compactable soil. Use where you need a stable base. |
The table below shows typical projects and what to order. Depth varies by the void you are filling.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Fill in lifts and compact. Depth depends on the void. |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Compact in 8-inch layers for stability. |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Bring grade up to desired level, then top with topsoil. |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Fill and compact to prevent later settling. |
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Compact against the wall in lifts for drainage. |
About 84 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That makes scheduling the delivery onto firm ground important. You want the site dry enough for the truck and for compaction.
Roughly 134 days a year drop below 32 degrees F. That affects the work window and how much the ground moves during freeze-thaw cycles. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
New Philadelphia sees about 26 inches of snowfall annually. Snow plowing can damage a loose fill surface, so consider that when you time the work. Frost depth here is real but moderate, which means the ground is workable for much of the year and settling is manageable. Soils mapped in the area are commonly well drained, so you may need less base stone under the surface layer than in heavier ground.
Estimate the volume by measuring the area and depth. Fill dirt is sold by the ton. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert cubic yards to tons. It tells you the approximate tonnage based on the depth and dimensions you enter.

Choose a delivery window: morning (7 am to 12 pm) or afternoon (12 pm to 5 pm). You pick the date at checkout, and it must be at least 3 business days after the order. You get an email confirmation, then a second email 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. The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close as they safely can. Inspect the load within 48 hours and photograph any issues.

Soils in the New Philadelphia area are in hydrologic group B, which means water infiltrates at a moderate rate. That makes standard base depth usually enough, so you do not need extra fill on that account. Your project volume still depends on the area and depth you need to fill.
Tuscarawas County permitted about 54 single-family homes in 2024, keeping demand for fill dirt steady. The delivery cost is calculated by your ZIP code at checkout. You can get an estimate by using our volume calculator and entering your address during the order process.
Measure the void you need to fill or the grade change you need to reach. For a pad or yard, a typical fill depth is 6 to 12 inches after compaction. Use the fill dirt calculator to convert your depth and area into tons.
The price is based on the quantity of fill dirt you order and the distance from the nearest supplier to your ZIP code. You see the total at checkout before you pay. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders for New Philadelphia addresses.
