Gravel delivery in Trenton, NJ: what is on offer

Stone here means pea gravel, and around it sit topsoil, garden soil, fill dirt, compost and mulch. Every material has its own page.

Fill dirt

Bulk fill for raising grade or filling a hole after a removal. In Trenton, fill dirt is sold by the ton. Open the Fill Dirt page to order.

Pea gravel

Rounded stone that works for paths, pipe bedding and dog runs. Trenton pea gravel is sold by the ton. See the Pea Gravel page for details.

Premium screened topsoil

Screened loam for lawns and level-up work, sold by the ton. Visit the Premium Screened Topsoil page.

Garden soil

A richer mix for vegetable and flower beds, sold by the ton. Go to the Garden Soil page.

Compost

Dark organic material for amending beds, sold by the cubic yard. For Trenton orders, the Compost page spells out the details.

Mulch

For Trenton beds and tree rings, mulch is the surface layer sold by the cubic yard. Head to the Mulch page.

Projects in the capital vary a great deal. Some customers resurface a gravel parking pad behind a shop, others fill raised beds in a community garden, and many simply need a few tons of stone for drainage around an older foundation. Treat each material as its own order so quantities stay accurate.

do the structural work, holding a path, a pipe trench or a low corner in place. Topsoil and garden soil are for growing, with the first suited to grass and the second to planted beds. Compost and mulch sit at the soft end, feeding a bed or dressing its surface. A small contractor patching several yards in the capital will often need only two of these, so a short list kept to the real job beats ordering a little of everything. Each material page shows its own unit, so the numbers stay clear when you add them up.

How ordering works

Put your ZIP into the price box and the total is already delivered. Two tons is the floor for the tonnage materials, and two cubic yards for mulch and compost. Bigger quantities earn a lower rate per unit.

Site notes for Trenton addresses

Jobs on the older blocks near the Delaware tend to be small and specific: a strip of stone along a foundation wall, a few beds behind a rowhouse, or a patch of lawn that needs leveling after a tree came out. Those jobs do not need a big load. Write down your measurements before you order so a second batch later in the season matches the first.

Weather plays a part too. After heavy rain, soil and fill dirt get wet and heavy. If the forecast looks rough, keep material covered until you are ready to spread it.

Reaching beyond the city

We also deliver to New Brunswick at about 25 miles, Camden at about 27, Philadelphia, PA at about 28, and Plainfield and Perth Amboy at about 33. The delivery across New Jersey page lists the wider picture.

Frequently Asked Questions

What works for a small rowhouse yard in Trenton?

A narrow rear yard usually needs only a couple of materials. Pea gravel makes a tidy path or a dry strip along the fence, and mulch finishes the planting beds beside it. Order each one separately, since they have different units, and total them up with your measurements before you check out.

Can I put topsoil over fill dirt?

Yes, and it is a common pairing on Trenton lots. Use fill dirt to bring a low area up to grade, let it settle for a few days, then finish with a few inches of screened topsoil alone is not a good growing surface.

How do I keep soil from washing onto the sidewalk?

Keep the pile a few feet back from the curb, and spread it as soon as the weather allows. A line of straw or a low board along the edge of the pile catches loose soil during a downpour. Sweep any spill off the sidewalk right away so it does not end up in the storm drain.

How thick should a mulch layer be?

Two to three inches is enough for most beds and tree rings. Any deeper and water struggles to reach the roots. Pull the mulch back a few inches from tree trunks and house siding so the bark stays dry. A fresh layer each spring keeps the bed looking tidy and the weeds down.

What is the difference between topsoil and garden soil?

Premium screened topsoil is sifted loam suited to lawn repair and leveling. Garden soil are both sold by the ton. If you are unsure, read the description on each material page before choosing.

Is compost the same as mulch?

No. Mulch is a surface layer that holds moisture and shades out weeds, while compost dug in first, then a layer of mulch on top once everything is planted.

Can I order for a job across the river in Pennsylvania?

Yes, if the job site is within the delivery list. Type the ZIP of the place where the pile will land into the price box, and it shows the delivered price for that spot. A job just over the bridge can price differently from one in Trenton, so check each address you plan to supply.

How do I estimate the amount I need?

Picture a raised bed 8 feet long, 4 feet wide and 10 inches deep. Multiply 8 by 4 by 10 to get 320, then divide by 324, which is about 1 cubic yard. Soil settles after watering, so plan on a little more than the raw figure, and check the unit on the product page.
