Fill Dirt ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Lampasas address and unloads right where you point.
Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year in Lampasas, so plan the delivery for either side of it. About 39 days a year drop below 32F, which means the work window is real and the ground shifts when it thaws.
Fill dirt is the structural layer you need under patios, yards and foundations. It compacts well and does not rot or settle the way organic material does.
For most grading and backfill jobs, one product covers the whole load. The table below shows what it does.
| Product | Best used for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Raising grade, filling holes, backfill | Clean, compactable material with no organic content. Screened for consistent size. |
Each project below uses fill dirt as the base. Depth depends on the site and how much you need to raise or fill.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill around a foundation | Fill Dirt | Compacted in lifts; use calculator for total yards. |
| Raising a low yard | Fill Dirt | Typical raise is 4 to 6 inches; confirm with calculator. |
| Filling a pool or pond | Fill Dirt | Volume depends on size; calculator handles odd shapes. |
| Building up a pad | Fill Dirt | Pad depth depends on equipment load; consult engineer. |
| Burying a stump hole | Fill Dirt | Let the hole settle and top off after a few rains. |
Lampasas gets about 33 inches of precipitation a year. Planning drainage and washout is part of any fill job, especially if the yard slopes toward the house.
About 49 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters because a wet site can rut and delay compaction. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
Soils mapped in the Lampasas area are commonly well drained. That means you may need less base stone under the surface layer than in a clay-heavy area, but the exact depth still depends on your soil test.
Fill dirt sells by the ton, and the amount you need depends on the area you are covering and the depth you want. Use the fill dirt calculator to convert cubic feet or yards into tons for your specific site dimensions.
