Maple Grove yards tend to show the same two problems: builder-grade fill left behind after construction, and lawns that thin out under mature trees.

Topsoil delivery in Maple Grove, MN
With a city of about 70,000 sitting on the northwest edge of the Twin Cities metro, most jobs here are residential: new sod on a fresh lot, a refilled garden bed, or a low corner that needs leveling. Screening removes the large stones and clods, so the soil spreads and rakes without much sorting. You can see the delivery in Maple Grove details on its own page, and the wider Premium Screened Topsoil in Minnesota hub covers the rest of the state.
Where homeowners put it to work
- New lawns: a few inches over compacted builder fill gives grass seed something to root in.
- Raised beds and borders: screened soil mixes easily with compost and holds moisture.
- Low spots: fill and regrade around downspouts, patios and foundations.
- Tree rings and shrub planting: backfill around new plantings once the hole is dug.
If you are finishing a bed, top it with Mulch to hold the moisture in. For a path or a drainage strip beside the bed, Pea Gravel is a common pairing, with its own listing for Maple Grove.
How much topsoil you need
Topsoil here is sold by the ton, and the smallest order is 2 tons. To size a project, multiply length by width in feet, then by the depth in inches, and divide by 324 to get cubic yards. Our topsoil runs about 2,200 pounds to the cubic yard, which means one yard is a little over a ton. A 20 by 15 foot lawn patch at 3 inches deep works out to about 2.8 cubic yards, or roughly 3 tons.
Skip the arithmetic and use the calculator to turn your dimensions into tons. New soil also firms up after the first watering, so most Maple Grove customers add a small extra margin and spread it a little thick before final grading.
Pricing and ordering
The price you see is the delivered price. Enter your ZIP on the product page and the engine calculates it live for your address. Larger orders get a lower rate per ton, so a combined order for two neighbors or a bigger regrade can cost less per ton than a single small load.
Pick your tonnage, confirm the ZIP, and place the order online. If you are unsure whether a job needs 2 tons or 6, size it with the calculator first, then adjust the quantity at checkout.
Prepping the spot before the truck arrives
Choose a dump area on a tarp or a firm, flat patch of ground, close to the work but clear of wires, branches and parked cars. The truck needs a straight approach and room to raise its bed. Cities close by, including Brooklyn Park at 6 miles, Plymouth at 6 miles, Coon Rapids at 9 miles and Minnetonka at 12 miles, are reached the same way.
Once the pile is down, shift it off the pavement before rain arrives, because loose soil washes onto driveways.
Working the soil once it lands
Spread in thin layers and rake level before you seed. Water lightly for the first week, and keep traffic off fresh beds until the surface firms. Heavy clay below needs loosening first so roots can move down, and a quick pass with a garden fork before the soil goes on makes a real difference.
Soil that has been properly screened also holds a clean edge along walkways and bed borders, which saves trimming time later in the season. Topsoil that sits in a pile for weeks grows weeds.
About Premium Screened Topsoil
Premium Screened Topsoil, the dark brown screened soil we deliver to Maple Grove, is sold by the ton. The screening takes out oversized stones, roots and hard clods, leaving a loose, even material that spreads and rakes with ordinary hand tools. It works as the growing layer for new lawns, a base for garden and flower beds, and fill for shallow low spots around the yard.
A cubic yard weighs about 2,200 pounds, so a little more than one ton covers a yard. Expect the material to settle after watering, and rake it smooth before seeding or planting. For a Maple Grove topsoil order, the delivered price is calculated live on the page, and bigger tonnage brings a lower rate per ton.
What Premium Screened Topsoil costs in Maple Grove
Around Maple Grove, premium screened topsoil is quoted by the ton with delivery layered in based on distance from the closest yard. Send your ZIP and load size and we will send back a same-hour quote with the truck rate and the per-ton figure spelled out. Plan on roughly 98 sq ft of coverage per ton at 3 inches deep, which puts a single-car driveway in the 4 to 7 ton bracket.
How crews use Premium Screened Topsoil in Maple Grove
Maple Grove contractors keep premium screened topsoil on the order sheet for a short list of standard installs. Top of the list is planting bed gravel, where the material is rolled out in tight urban lots and infill builds and screeded to grade. Right behind that is erosion control, common in dense neighborhoods where curb access is short and often paired with edging or fabric below the lift. Maple Grove sits at about 72,739 residents, which means we see steady weekday traffic from landscape crews and weekend pickups from owner-builders.
Delivery day in Maple Grove
Delivery in Maple Grove runs out of the nearest pit; you get a two hour arrival window the evening prior and a call when the driver leaves the scale. Plan for 12 ft of clear path for a tandem and 14 ft for a tri-axle, plus a level area at the dump point so the bed lifts straight. Standard lead time on this lane is Mon-Sat, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.

Is the soil screened, and what does that mean?
Screened means the soil has been run through a mesh to take out large rocks, roots and hard clods. What you get is a dark brown, even-textured material that is easier to spread, rake and shape than unscreened fill, and it is well suited to lawns and planting beds.
Can I order less than 2 tons for a small bed?
No, a Maple Grove topsoil order starts at 2 tons. A single load usually covers several beds, so consider combining projects. The calculator will tell you how many tons your dimensions actually need before you commit.
Does the price change if I enter a different ZIP?
Yes. The price is delivered and is calculated live for the ZIP you type in, so a different address can show a different figure. The figure that counts is the one for the address where the truck will unload.
Is it good for vegetable gardens?
It works well as a base. Mix it with compost adds the organic matter that edible crops like. Work the two together in the top several inches rather than layering them, and avoid walking on the bed afterward so the soil stays loose.
Can I use it to level a sloped yard?
Topsoil suits shallow regrading but not major fill. For a large drop, build up the base with a heavier material and finish with a few inches of topsoil on top. Grade it away from the house so water does not pool against the foundation.
Can I blend it with the soil already in my yard?
Yes, and for most lawns and beds that is the better approach. Fork the new soil into the top few inches of the old so there is no hard line between layers, since a sharp boundary can slow water and roots. It also works as a top dressing over a thin lawn.
Will grass seed take on new topsoil?
Yes, if the surface is raked smooth and kept damp. Scatter seed after leveling, press it in lightly with a roller or the back of a rake, and water daily in short sessions. Thin spots usually fill in with a second seeding a few weeks later.
What else do I need for a finished planting bed?
A finished bed usually wants a layer of mulch on the surface, and a strip of gravel works for a path beside it. Check the mulch and pea gravel pages for the Maple Grove listings and order them together with the topsoil.
