Number 1 Fill Dirt
C$14.50
Number 1 fill dirt is a screened, fine-textured soil ideal for homeowners needing reliable fill, grading, or base preparation. As the higher-quality of our two fill dirt options, it offers better consistency with fewer large debris pieces for smoother results. Sourced locally and screened for uniformity, it may contain natural sand to improve drainage while still holding moisture. This makes it a cost-effective choice for leveling yards, filling low spots, and preparing areas before sod or landscaping.
