## From order to dump

1. **Send the order.** Material, quantity and address, through the [order form](https://txgrit.net/order/) or by phone.
2. **Get a price and a time.** Mike calls or texts to confirm both. If the material or the quantity looks wrong for the job, he'll say so.
3. **Mark the spot.** Stake or flag where the pile goes, and tell us about gates, slopes and anything overhead.
4. **We deliver.** The truck backs in and dumps where you marked, as long as it can get there safely.

## Site checklist

- **Firm ground.** Loaded trucks sink in soft or wet soil and can crack thin concrete.
- **Clear overhead.** A raised dump bed can reach 20 feet or more. No power lines or limbs over the drop spot.
- **Room to back in.** A wide gate and space to turn and back up.
- **A phone number.** Someone the driver can call from the truck.

## Work it out in cubic yards

Bulk material is measured in cubic yards. To estimate, multiply length × width × depth in feet and divide by 27. Or use square feet × depth in inches ÷ 324.

**Area one cubic yard covers, by depth**

| Depth | One cubic yard covers about | Typical use |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2 inches | 162 square feet | Topdressing, thin gravel topping |
| 3 inches | 108 square feet | Topsoil for sod, walk paths |
| 4 inches | 81 square feet | Driveway base, slab cushion |
| 6 inches | 54 square feet | Road base, heavier traffic |

Example: a 12 ft × 50 ft driveway at 4 inches deep is 600 square feet × 4 ÷ 324, or about 7.4 cubic yards. Many people add 5 to 10 percent for compaction and uneven ground.

## Before you order

### How much does a dump truck hold?

It depends on the truck and on how heavy the material is. As a rough guide, a tandem-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards, and larger end-dump trailers carry more. Heavy material such as rock and gravel reaches a truck's legal weight before it fills the bed, so a load of rock is fewer cubic yards than a load of topsoil. Tell us your quantity and we'll work out the number of loads.

### How do I figure out how much material I need?

Multiply length × width × depth, all in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. A shortcut: square feet × depth in inches ÷ 324. One cubic yard covers about 108 square feet at 3 inches deep, or about 81 square feet at 4 inches deep.

Example: a 12 ft × 50 ft driveway at 4 inches deep needs about 7.4 cubic yards. The calculator on the [order page](https://txgrit.net/order/#calculator) does the math for you.

### How much does a load cost?
