Are There Different Kinds Of Fill Dirt?
Fill dirt is the material used to fill holes and low areas or build up ground elevation on construction sites. The term “fill” is a generic term for any kind of dirt material used to fill low areas.
Fill can consist of any material – sand, clay, gravel, and so on. Fill dirt is commonly made of subsoil, which is found about 12 inches below the topsoil. It consists of partially broken down soil that contains clay, sand, silt, and stones, and any other materials found in the source ground. If the fill dirt comes from the subsurface of old farm fields or from woodlands, it will contain whatever materials are there. It may contain some organic material. Its inorganic qualities make it ideal as fill because it does not decompose and settle like organic soils are prone to do.
