How to install Premium Screened Topsoil

3
Finish grade
Crown away from structures; rake smooth before seeding or planting.
4
Water in

Where we source Premium Screened Topsoil

We source Premium Screened Topsoil from local quarries within the delivery region, typically inside a 50-mile radius. Short hauls mean lower delivery cost for you and a smaller diesel footprint per yard.

Every load is weighed at the source and the ticket travels with the truck, so you get exact tonnage, not estimates. Quality varies by quarry; we work with operators whose product meets state DOT spec for the applications we recommend.

Why bulk delivery saves money

Compared to bagged retail at the home center, bulk truck delivery comes in at roughly a third of the per-ton cost and skips the pallet-by-pallet handling. At our delivered range of $30 to $50 per yard, a 5 yard homeowner order saves hundreds versus the bagged equivalent at typical retail. A residential project usually runs 3 to 8 yards, which fits one tandem-axle truck and one drop. Contractors stepping up to 16 yards or more unlock our full-truck rate, which is generally 15 to 20 percent below the partial-load price. Bulk also wins on time: one delivery beats 20 trips to the rack, and the driver places the load where you want it instead of a parking-lot pallet.
