What Benny's Dump Runs supplies

Bulk suppliers sell loose material by volume, which becomes markedly cheaper than bagged product once a project passes a few cubic yards.

Confirm exactly which product you are quoting — screened topsoil, fill dirt, compost blends and aggregate are priced very differently.

Because Benny's Dump Runs carries several material lines, it is often possible to combine an order across products — soil, mulch and stone on one truck — rather than paying separate delivery charges to two or three different yards.

How much material you need

Bulk landscape materials is sold by the cubic yard. Confirm coverage rates for your project depth before ordering.

As a rough guide: 1 yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 in; 5 yards covers about 540 sq ft at 3 in; 10 yards covers about 1,080 sq ft at 3 in.

Measure your area and decide on depth before calling. Most yards will run the volume calculation for you and will flag when stepping up to a larger load actually lowers the price per unit.

Ordering and delivery

Confirm the delivery radius and fee early in the call. Two yards quoting similar material prices can land very differently once haulage is added.

Check where the truck can actually dump. Tandem trucks need overhead clearance and firm ground, and most drivers will not reverse across a soft lawn or a new driveway. If access is tight, ask whether they run a smaller truck or can leave the load at the kerb.

Pricing for bulk material is rarely published in full, since it moves with stock and season. The business website may list current products, but a phone call will get you a firm delivered number faster.

Ratings and reputation

Of the 171 reviews on file, 170 are five-star (99%) and 0 are four-star. 1 review sits at one or two stars, and those are worth reading directly — complaints at material yards usually concern delivery timing or short loads rather than the product itself.

Among the suppliers we list across Connecticut, this rating places Benny's Dump Runs in the top 11%.

Across the 5 suppliers we list in Stratford, the average rating is 3.9.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 5.0 drawn from 171 reviews reflects a substantial track record.

Hours and visiting the yard

Benny's Dump Runs is open 7 days a week. The yard opens as early as 8 AM and runs until 8 PM.

Saturday opening makes this a practical option for weekend projects — a real advantage, since plenty of bulk yards shut for the weekend and leave homeowners unable to collect material outside working hours.

Loading is weather-dependent whatever the posted hours say. Heavy rain turns yards to mud and makes wet material heavier and harder to spread, so call the same morning if conditions look poor.

Best time to buy in Connecticut

In Connecticut, the buying window is compressed. Yards get busiest from the first thaw through early June, and again briefly in autumn. Ordering bulk landscape materials in early spring often means waiting in a queue and paying peak rates, so booking delivery before the rush — or in late autumn for spring work — usually gets both a better price and a firmer delivery date. Many yards in colder states reduce hours or close outright through deep winter, so confirm seasonal availability before planning a January or February project.

Bulk material pricing is intensely local. Trucking is a large share of the delivered cost, which is why a nearby yard usually beats a cheaper one further out once the full quote lands.
