About Premium Screened Topsoil
Premium Screened Topsoil is a soil & dirt material in the screened" size range with a typical density of 2200 lbs per cubic yard. Screened, ready-to-spread material for new lawns, garden beds, raised planters, grading low spots, and filling around foundations.
A typical residential order is 3-8 tons; full-load contractor orders run 16-24 tons. We deliver in tandem-axle dump trucks (10-16 ton capacity) or tri-axles (16-24 ton capacity). Pricing varies with regional quarry proximity, load size, and current diesel; full-load delivery typically saves 15-20% over partial loads.

How to install Premium Screened Topsoil

Finish grade
Crown away from structures; rake smooth before seeding or planting.

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 ton.
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. A residential project usually runs 3 to 8 tons, which fits one tandem-axle truck and one drop. Contractors stepping up to 16 tons 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.
