About yellow fill sand
Yellow fill sand is a coarse, fine-grained sand for the rough work, the kind of job nobody sees once it's done. It's what you backfill with around a foundation or a run of pipe, what you spread to level and fill low spots, and what goes down for base or bedding under other work. It mixes into mortar and render too, so masons keep it around.
It's the cheapest sand we sell because it's a utility sand, not a washed or graded one. That's exactly why you use it: when a job calls for a lot of fill, you don't want to pay for sand that ends up buried. For anything that shows, like a play area or a patio surface, step up to mason sand or white sand instead. It's sold by the ton. Digging out and hauling off material first? We rent roll-off dumpsters too.
