Leveling With Sand Vs Topsoil

What Type of Soil Should You Use to Level a Yard?

When considering what to use to level your yard, there are a few things to take into account: the type of soil in your yard, the climate, and your budget.

If you have clay soil, using sand to level your yard is a good option. The sand will help to break up the clay and make it easier to work with. If you have sandy soil, using soil to level your yard is a better option. The soil will help to hold the sand in place and keep it from blowing away.

If you live in a hot climate, using sand to level your yard is a better option. The sand will help to keep the soil from becoming too hot and will help to cool it down.
