Egg Lake Quarry

Egg Lake Quarry is a bulk topsoil, fill and excavation services and sand and gravel supplier serving Friday Harbor, Washington and the surrounding region. Google lists the business under 10 categories — Crushed stone supplier, Gravel pit, Landscaper, Pond contractor — which points to a broader inventory than a single-product yard carries.

The business holds a 4.5-star Google rating from 8 reviews. That tracks close to the Washington average of 4.5 across the 485 suppliers we list statewide.

What Egg Lake Quarry supplies

Screened topsoil is the workhorse material for new lawns, raised beds and regrading work. Yards typically screen to ½" or ⅜" to pull out rocks, roots and clods, and many sell blended mixes that cut native soil with compost or sand to improve structure and drainage.

Ask which blend you are buying. Straight screened topsoil suits filling and levelling; a 50/50 or 70/30 soil-compost blend performs far better as a planting medium. Pure fill dirt is a different product entirely — unscreened, often clay-heavy, and meant for structural filling rather than growing.

Excavating outfits frequently sell and haul fill dirt, topsoil and aggregate alongside their site work. For larger volumes they are often cheaper than a retail yard because they are already running trucks.

Because Egg Lake Quarry 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

Topsoil is sold by the cubic yard. A cubic yard of topsoil weighs roughly 2,000–2,400 lbs depending on moisture, so a half-ton pickup safely carries about one yard.

As a rough guide: 1 yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 in; 3 yards covers about 325 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.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 4.5 drawn from 8 reviews rests on a small sample, so weigh it accordingly.

Best time to buy in Washington

Demand for topsoil peaks from spring through early summer across Washington, when yards run their longest queues and hold firmest on price. Late summer and autumn typically bring shorter waits and more negotiating room, particularly on larger loads. If your project timing is flexible, buying outside the spring rush is the single easiest way to reduce the delivered cost.

Because haulage is such a large share of delivered cost, the nearest yard carrying your material frequently wins on total price even at a higher per-unit rate.
