How Much Is a Truck Bed of Dirt?

Truck beds are an invaluable tool for transporting dirt, but it’s important to know how much a truck bed can hold and how much it’ll cost. A standard truck bed can easily handle up to one ton of soil and would typically cost around $250.

However, the price will vary depending on the type of dirt and the quantity needed.

The most common type of dirt used is topsoil, which is a blend of various organic materials including sand, clay, silt, and humus. Topsoil is usually sold by the yard and can range in price from $20 to $50 per yard.

So if you need 10 yards of topsoil for your project, that would be about $200 – $500 depending on the quality.

If you need more than one ton of soil for your project, you may need to use a different type of dirt such as gravel or concrete mix. Gravel tends to be cheaper than topsoil and can range in price from $10 – $30 per yard. Concrete mix is more expensive at around $75 – $100 per yard but can be used in many different applications.

In addition, there are other factors that may affect the cost such as delivery fees or taxes if applicable. Delivery fees will vary depending on how far away you are from the supplier and whether you’re getting it delivered or picking it up yourself. If you’re getting delivery service then expect to pay around an additional 10-15% depending on the size and weight of your order.

Conclusion:
How much is a truck bed full of dirt? The answer depends on what type of dirt you’re using and how much you need.

Topsoil usually costs around $20 – 50 per yard while gravel tends to be cheaper at around $10 – 30 per yard. Concrete mix is more expensive at about $75 – 100 per yard but can be used for many different applications. In addition, delivery fees may apply so make sure to factor those into your budget when estimating costs for your project.
