In Oklahoma City you will commonly find screened topsoil from landscape supply yards, garden centers, and local compost facilities. Hello Gravel connects you with nearby suppliers in your zip code so you can see which vendors offer screened topsoil and pricing per cubic yard or ton. If you need a specific screening level or organic blend, add that in Order Notes so suppliers can match your request.

For planting turf or creating garden beds, aim for 2 to 4 inches of topsoil over the area. For 1,000 sq ft that equals about 6.2 cubic yards at 2 inches or about 12.3 cubic yards at 4 inches, which is roughly 7.4 to 14.8 tons using a typical conversion. Topsoil is not appropriate as a driveway base; use these depths only for planting and grading purposes.

Yes. Much of the Oklahoma City area has clay subsoil that holds water and compacts, so choose a loamy screened topsoil or an engineered blend with compost and coarse sand to improve structure and drainage. Adding 20-40% compost or mixing in sand and organic matter helps roots establish and reduces compaction from seasonal rains common in central Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City has occasional freeze-thaw cycles in winter that can cause heaving and settling in poorly structured soils. Well-amended topsoil with good organic matter drains better and resists compaction, reducing winter damage. To minimize issues, finish grading in the fall, avoid heavy compaction during freezes, and refresh planting beds with organic matter in spring.

In Oklahoma City, economy or bulk screened topsoil often runs roughly $15 to $30 per cubic yard, while premium blends enriched with compost or screened to finer specs commonly fall in the $30 to $60 per cubic yard range. Some suppliers price by the ton; convert using about 1.1 to 1.3 tons per cubic yard for planning. Prices vary by season, supplier, and delivery distance, so get a zip-code-based quote on our site for exact pricing.

For most residential deliveries of topsoil you will not need a permit, but permits may be required if the work involves major grading, altering drainage, or changes to stormwater flow. Large commercial fills or projects near floodplains, public rights-of-way, or sensitive areas might require review by the City of Oklahoma City or Oklahoma County. When in doubt, contact local planning or stormwater staff and consult Hello Gravel before placing a large order.

Use crushed limestone or crushed stone for a driveway base; topsoil is organic and will break down and rut under vehicle traffic. Topsoil is appropriate for lawn and planting areas adjacent to a driveway, but not for load-bearing or drainage layers. Contractors in the Oklahoma City area typically recommend a compacted stone base with a top wearing layer suited to the driveway type.

Garden beds and planted areas with topsoil should be inspected and amended once a year, adding compost or 1 to 2 inches of topsoil every few years to replenish organic matter and nutrients. Topsoil paths tend to compact and erode in Oklahoma City rains, so many homeowners convert high-traffic paths to mulch, pavers, or decomposed granite to cut maintenance. Typical small refreshes cost a few dozen to a few hundred dollars depending on yard size and whether you buy topsoil by the yard or ton.

Topsoil is not suitable for patios and walkways because it is too soft, retains moisture, and will rut under foot traffic. Decomposed granite or compactable gravels form a stable, low-maintenance walking surface that performs well in Oklahoma City weather. If you want planting beds next to a DG path, install a few inches of good topsoil under the planting areas only, and use DG for the walking surface.

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