Select Fill Material in a 4" Size Range

Select fill material in a 4" size range is a high-quality, screened earth or aggregate product specifically chosen for its consistency and minimal presence of debris or organic matter. The "select" designation means this fill meets stricter standards for compaction and stability compared to general fill, making it ideal for structural and foundational applications.

The 4" size range allows for rapid placement and effective filling of large voids, while still providing good compaction properties. This makes it particularly suitable for use as a sub-base beneath roads, building pads, or large-scale landscaping projects where stability and load-bearing capacity are critical. Select fill is also commonly used in commercial site development, utility trench backfill, and residential foundation preparation. Its larger particle size can make it less suitable for areas requiring a smooth finish or tight compaction, but it excels in applications where drainage and bulk fill are priorities.
