Sheridan Climate and Fill Dirt Use
Sheridan sees about 113 wet days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters. About 49 days each year drop below freezing, affecting the work window and how much the ground moves. Ground freezing itself is not a significant factor here, which expands the months the ground is workable and reduces settling concerns.
Soils mapped in the Sheridan area are commonly poorly drained. This area guidance suggests more or less base stone under the surface layer. The ground around Sheridan falls in dual hydrologic group C/D: where it is drained, it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Estimating How Much Fill Dirt You Need
A cubic yard of fill dirt weighs between about 2,000 and 3,000 pounds depending on moisture, so knowing your volume in cubic yards helps estimate the tonnage. Use our fill dirt calculator to convert your project dimensions to tons.
