Q: Will a yard of dirt fit in a pickup?

• <div><p>Yes, a cubic yard of dirt will fit in most standard-size pickup trucks. However, consider the truck&rsquo;s payload as well as the truck bed dimensions before loading it up with dirt. Soil can be quite heavy, and if the total weight of a yard of dirt exceeds your truck&rsquo;s payload capacity, you risk damaging the chassis and suspension.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: How do I prepare my yard for river rock?

• <div><p>To prepare your yard for river rocks, smaller rocks may require laying landscape fabric to keep the stones from sinking into the ground while encouraging proper water drainage. You should also clear the land of weeds and larger boulders and, in some cases, test the density of the soil to ensure it can handle the weight.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect pickup costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on waste volume, service frequency, and additional options like bulk pickups.</p></div>

Q: How tall should mulch be around trees?

• <div><p>How tall your mulch should be around your tree depends on the type of mulch you use, but aim for 3 to 4 inches as a rule of thumb. You&rsquo;ll want to avoid simply piling it up in hopes of offering additional benefits to your tree. Volcano mulching is the infamous term for piling way too much mulch against the stem of your tree. This could actually kill your tree or severely harm it, as your tree trunk needs space to breathe without too much moisture. </p></div>
