Premium Soil
PREMIUM SOIL IN MARYVILLE, TN
UT Extension advises working a vegetable garden to a depth of approximately 8 inches where possible, and heavy red clay rarely allows that without help. Out of Eden Bulk Landscape Material sells premium soil in Maryville, TN: screened topsoil for leveling and dressing grass, garden soil mixed from soil, compost, sand, and chicken manure, and custom blends such as topsoil and compost. Every product is 100% natural, sold by the scoop, and backed by 25+ years of helping East Tennessee gardens grow.
PLANTS ONLY GROW AS WELL AS THE DIRT BELOW THEM.
Fertilizer can push leaves for a season, but roots live in the ground all year. When that ground is compacted, starved of nutrients, or waterlogged after every storm, plants stall no matter what goes on top. Healthy soil holds air and water in balance, drains without drying out overnight, and gives roots room to wander. Everything above the surface depends on it.
We sell soil ready to work: screened so it rakes smoothly, blended so it feeds, and matched to the job, whether that is a tomato bed, a new lawn, or a sunken spot by the driveway.
- Screened topsoil that rakes easily
- Garden soil with compost and chicken manure
- Custom blends mixed on request
- Every product sold by the scoop
PREMIUM SOIL
SCREENED, BLENDED, AND READY TO RAKE.
Unscreened dirt comes with passengers: roots, rocks, clods, and the odd chunk of debris that catches a rake tine and stops the job. Our screened topsoil has that debris sifted out, so it rakes into an even layer across a lawn or a bed. Our garden soil goes a step further, blending soil with compost, sand, and chicken manure for a looser, richer growing mix. Blends made to order fill the space between those two.
RED CLAY IS A HARD PLACE TO START A GARDEN.
Blount County gardeners know the problem: dense red clay that turns to paste after a storm and bakes into brick by August. With Maryville averaging approximately 50 inches of rain a year, clay ground can stay soggy for days. Organic matter loosens that clay and lets water and roots move through it, and extension specialists recommend adding compost every year rather than trying to fix clay with sand.
A BLEND FOR TOMATOES IS NOT A BLEND FOR TURF.
Since 1999, we have mixed and sold soil for vegetable beds, lawns, and everything between, and one lesson holds: each job wants its own material. A vegetable bed wants soil with plenty of compost to feed a demanding crop. A lawn wants screened topsoil that rakes flat and lets grass knit through. Shrub borders and particular plants want something else again, and our staff will help you sort it out. Which bed are you building this season?
WHY CHOOSE US FOR PREMIUM SOIL.
Debris Sifted Out Before It Ships
Screening strips out the rocks, roots, and clods that snag a rake and leave lumps under new grass. You get soil that works into a smooth grade the first time, without an afternoon spent picking stones out by hand.
Blends Built Around Plants
Garden soil and topsoil do different jobs, and we will not sell you one when you need the other. Tell us what is going in the ground, from tomatoes to boxwoods, and we point you to the mix that fits.
Custom Mixes On Request
Need more compost than the standard mix, or topsoil cut with compost for a lawn project? We blend soils to order, so contractors and homeowners alike can get a material tuned to a single job rather than a compromise.
Scoops Matched To Your Beds
Send the length, width, and depth of each bed or dip, and we translate those measurements into scoops. You buy what the project calls for, without a leftover mound in the driveway or a second trip halfway through.
Soil And Compost In One Load
Extra compost for topdressing, mulch for the finished beds, or rock for a path can ride along with your soil, provided each stays apart and the load stays under weight. That turns a whole weekend project into one scheduled delivery.
Pickup Or Delivery, Your Call
Bring a truck or trailer and our loader fills it on the spot, or let our single-axle truck bring the pile to you. Either way, the soil lands where the work happens, not across town in a store parking lot.
WHAT WE CARRY
OUR PREMIUM SOIL RANGE
Every soil below is 100% natural and sold by the scoop. The first three are the core products; the rest show how customers most often put them to work around yards, lawns, and gardens.
TOPSOIL
Screened Topsoil
Sifted to remove debris, our screened topsoil rakes out easily for leveling uneven ground and dressing grass. It is the base material for filling around a foundation, building up a lawn grade, or topping off a tired bed.
GARDEN MIX
Organic Garden Soil
Our garden soil blends soil, compost, sand, and chicken manure into a loose, fertile mix for flowers and vegetables. The compost feeds soil life, the sand opens up drainage, and the manure brings nitrogen, all in one pile.
CUSTOM
Custom Soil Blends
Some projects need a ratio no standard mix offers. We blend soils to order, such as topsoil and compost in a proportion suited to a lawn, or a mix tuned for a perennial border. Tell us the goal, and we mix the blend.
LEVELING
Topsoil for Lawn Leveling
Low spots collect water, scalp under the mower, and trip up bare feet. Screened topsoil fills them without lumps, and thin passes of approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch let existing grass grow up through each layer instead of smothering.
RAISED BEDS
Raised Bed and Vegetable Garden Soil
Raised beds are generally built approximately 6 to 12 inches high, UT Extension notes, with deeper beds for crops like tomatoes. Our garden soil, alone or blended with extra compost, fills those frames with a mix that drains well and feeds steadily.
SPECIALTY
Specialty Plant Blends
Certain plants want conditions that ordinary topsoil cannot supply, from a bed of acid-loving shrubs to a row of hungry vegetables. Tell us what you are growing, and we will talk through a specialty blend suited to that plant.
THE WORD ON OUR WORK
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY.
Gardeners who review us mention mature compost with no uncomposted chunks, alongside people who make buying simple: staff who help choose between blends, drivers who take care finding the best drop spot, and a hometown supplier they come back to every spring.
Common Questions
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
Soil questions come to us from first-time vegetable growers, lawn owners, and landscapers alike. Here are the ones we answer most, with guidance drawn from university extension research and our own yard.
What is the difference between topsoil and garden soil?
Topsoil is the upper layer of native ground, used for leveling, filling, and lawns, while garden soil is topsoil enriched for growing. Our garden soil, for example, blends soil with compost, sand, and chicken manure for more productive beds.
What is screened topsoil?
Screened topsoil is topsoil passed through a screen to remove rocks, roots, and clods. UConn soil specialists say it should be free of stones larger than approximately 3 inches across. A finer screen makes soil easier to rake smooth.
What soil is best for raised beds?
A loose, rich, well-draining mix is best for raised beds. UT Extension suggests blending garden soil with compost and a lightener such as perlite. Out of Eden Bulk Landscape Material in Maryville, TN sells the garden soil and compost.
How much soil do I need for a raised bed?
Multiply length by width by depth in feet for the volume, and we will convert it to scoops. UT Extension notes beds run approximately 6 to 12 inches high, and deep-rooted crops such as tomatoes need the upper end.
What is the best soil for vegetable gardens?
Vegetables do best in well-drained soil that is rich in compost. Work the ground approximately 8 inches deep where possible, as UT Extension advises, add compost each season, and test yearly so lime and fertilizer go only where needed.
Can I use topsoil to level my yard?
Yes. Screened topsoil is a common choice for filling low spots and leveling a lawn. Fill larger depressions in stages, and cover living grass with passes of approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch, letting the turf grow through each one.
Is chicken manure good for garden soil?
It can be, as long as it is handled correctly. Fresh chicken manure runs high in ammonia and salts and can burn plants, so extension experts advise composting it first and never putting fresh manure on vegetables close to harvest.
How do I improve red clay soil?
Add organic matter, and keep adding it every year. Compost loosens clay, improves drainage, and feeds soil life, while sand alone can make clay denser. Out of Eden Bulk Landscape Material in Maryville, TN sells compost and topsoil blends.
HOW WE WORK
FROM SOIL BLEND TO BACKYARD PILE, HERE IS HOW.
STEP 01
Tell Us What Will Grow There
Lawns, vegetable plots, raised beds, and shrub borders each point to a different soil. Describe the plants and the ground they are going into, and we will recommend topsoil, garden soil, or a blend made to order.
STEP 02
Measure Every Bed And Dip
Measure the length and width of each bed, and note the depth you plan to fill. For leveling, estimate how deep the dips run. We turn those figures into a scoop count so the order matches the work.
STEP 03
Receive A Quote Priced On Distance
Your free quote spells out the soil, the scoop count, and a delivery charge based on how far the truck travels. Compost, mulch, or rock for the job can be added to one quote and one trip.
STEP 04
Schedule Delivery Or Pickup
Deliveries usually go out within a week, Saturdays included. Soaked soil weighs more and ruts a yard, so if a storm hits on your date, we call and move it. Pickup customers bring their own truck or trailer.
STEP 05
Ready The Drop Spot
Pick a firm, open area near the beds or the lawn, away from septic lids, sprinkler lines, and low-hanging limbs. Clear it, mark it with a flag or cone, and a tarp beneath the pile makes cleanup easier later.
STEP 06
Take Delivery Of Your Pile
Backing in carefully, our driver confirms the target and dumps the soil in one mound where you point. From there, the wheelbarrow and rake are yours, and the pile can go into your beds that afternoon.
