For clay-heavy yards in West Indiana, choose a loamy or sandy-loam topsoil that drains better than pure clay: aim for roughly 40-60% sand, 20-40% silt, and 10-20% clay with added organic matter (3-8%). That blend improves drainage and root growth on slopes; consider soil testing and adding compost or gypsum for severe clay conditions.

Freeze-thaw cycles in Indiana can cause topsoil to heave in winter and settle in spring, often leading to 5-15% initial settling after the first season. To reduce problems, place and lightly compact a well-prepared subgrade, use a good loamy topsoil, and plan to order 10-20% extra material to allow for settling and future touch-ups.

At 2 inches depth, 1,000 sq ft equals about 6.2 cubic yards (roughly 7.5 to 8.5 tons depending on density). At 3 inches it is about 9.3 cubic yards (roughly 11 to 13 tons). Because densities vary, order the calculator recommendation on our site and add 10-20% extra for settling and grading; note our minimum order is 3 tons.

For lawn repair, a good quality topsoil or loam is usually the right choice to re-establish turf because it supports roots and vegetation. For drainage or driveway areas, topsoil alone is not appropriate; use crushed stone or aggregate for structural support and drainage, then cap or surround with topsoil for planting areas as needed.

Topsoil is not suitable for high-traffic driveways or farm lanes and will degrade quickly; expect displacement and compaction within months to a season depending on use. For driveways, use a proper aggregate base; if you must use topsoil in edging or low-traffic paths, budget to replenish within one season to two years.

Plan for regrading and top-ups, weed control, and occasional aeration or amendment addition. A good rule is to budget 10-20% of the initial material yearly for touch-ups, plus small annual costs for manual weed control or an occasional bag of seed/compost; larger properties may need periodic contractor visits for regrading.

Local town ordinances, HOA covenants, or county stormwater rules can restrict visible bare soil, require erosion control, or limit impervious cover; Denver, IN homeowners should check their town hall and any HOA documents before large deliveries. If you plan work near curbs or drainage swales, include erosion control measures (straw, silt fence) and mention this in your order notes so drivers can plan placement.

For small DIY jobs you typically need a wheelbarrow, shovel, landscape rake, and possibly a rototiller or hand tamper; renting a small skid-steer or mini-excavator speeds work for large yards. Equipment rentals are commonly $50-$400/day depending on the tool; contractors typically charge hourly or per-yard installation rates — request a quote or check our installation partners if you want labor included.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
