Fill Dirt in Redfield
Fill dirt is the structural soil you need for grading, backfilling and building up ground. You order it by the ton online from Gravel Monkey, and we deliver it by dump truck to your Redfield address. Redfield gets about 23 inches of precipitation a year, so planning for drainage and washout is part of any fill job.

How Local Conditions Affect Your Fill Dirt Job
Redfield has about 179 freezing days a year below 32 degrees F. That long freeze shortens the work window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall. Deep ground frost also means the soil moves more with freeze-thaw cycles, so compaction is critical to prevent settling after the ground thaws.
Soils mapped in the Redfield area are commonly moderately well drained. That means you may need more base stone under the surface layer to handle water movement. The ground around Redfield is in hydrologic group B, which takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard base depth for fill dirt is usually enough. The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall.
About 28 inches of snowfall a year can cause plowing damage to a loose fill surface, so consider grading and compacting before winter if you are finished with the job.
How Much Fill Dirt You Need
Calculate the volume by multiplying length and width by the desired depth, then convert cubic feet to tons. Use our fill dirt calculator to get a tonnage estimate for your Redfield project. It accounts for the material density and gives you a number you can enter at checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the smallest load of fill dirt you deliver to Redfield?
The smallest load is 1 ton. A ton of fill dirt typically covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. You can order any amount from 1 ton up to a full truckload.
Does the soil around Redfield change how much fill dirt I need?
The ground around Redfield is in hydrologic group B, which means it takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard fill dirt depths are usually adequate for drainage. However, if the existing soil is poorly compacted, you may need extra fill to account for settling.
How deep should the layer be for planting?
Fill dirt is not for planting. Use it for structural fill and top with at least 4 to 6 inches of topsoil for a growing layer.
What is the difference between the sizes of fill dirt you stock?
Gravel Monkey stocks one grade of fill dirt: screened fill with no organic matter. It is consistent in texture and compacts well. There are no separate sizes; all fill dirt is the same screened product.
