At typical Michigan prices ($30–$60 per cubic yard), 2 cubic yards of topsoil will usually cost between $60 and $120 before any delivery charges. Note that Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons, so a 2-yard purchase may fall below our minimum and could require a slightly larger order or pickup. If you need just a small amount, contact our team for options and accurate pricing for your address.

Topsoil in the St. Louis, MI area generally runs about $20 to $45 per ton, depending on moisture content, organic mix, and screening.

Use our material calculator to convert cubic yards to tons for your specific project.

Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons, which for topsoil is roughly 2 to 3 cubic yards depending on moisture and composition. For very small projects that need less than the minimum, consider buying 3 tons to avoid multiple deliveries or look for local pickup options from suppliers. If you are unsure, contact our sales team and we can recommend the best option for your project size in St. Louis.

Most of our contracted haulers use tri-axle dump trucks that commonly carry about 10 to 12 cubic yards of topsoil per load. Smaller trucks and landscape trucks can carry less (often 3–6 cubic yards), but availability depends on your zip code and local supplier. When you request a delivery date, we can confirm the truck type that will serve your order.

Use this formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For example, to add 2 inches of topsoil to a 1,000 sq ft area: (1000 x 2) / 324 = about 6.2 cubic yards. Convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by roughly 1.0–1.2 depending on soil moisture, and then compare to our 3-ton minimum when placing an order.

Yes. Local Michigan soils can be heavier in clay or contain more organic peat in some areas, so screened loam or a topsoil blended with compost is often best for lawns and planting beds in St. Louis. Spring and fall are the best seasons for topdressing and planting; wet winters can affect delivery and compaction, so discuss timing with our team. We source materials locally, so product appearance and texture will reflect St. Louis regional geology.
