Dirt Direct offers a convenient, affordable solution to ordering bulk aggregate and landscape materials. Among the many services they offer, topsoil and loam delivery is one that many people may be starting to think about. Seeing as the first day of spring is on March 20th, it’s about that time of year for people to start thinking about planning their landscaping work.
Bulk delivery may not be for everyone, but if you’re in need of a large delivery of topsoil or loam, Dirt Direct is your company. Dirt Direct will work with you to make sure you get the right amount of topsoil or loam you need for your home or work site. The topsoil and loam they have to offer is quality material. It includes composted materials and is screened as to provide a consistency from 3/4″ to a small particle of dirt. Why does “screening” matter you ask? The screening process is done to add nutrients to enhance the food and minerals for your plants. To thrive in our Maine climate most plants need quality topsoil or loam to supply the plants with necessary nutrients.
Are you aware that topsoil and loam are not the same material? Topsoil is mostly what the name suggests, it is the upper most layer of the ground. It is naturally occurring dirt which is comprised of organic decaying matter. While loam is more of a commercial mixture of sand, clay and silt. This is considered to be the best topsoil because the natural mixture allows water to be soaked, while also allowing the water to drain and air to circulate. Just remember that while all loam is topsoil, not all topsoil is loam!
