Build Healthier Lawns and Gardens with the Right Soil and Compost

Salt Lake City homeowners know that Utah’s soil isn’t always garden-ready. Whether you’re planting a vegetable bed, prepping your lawn, or refreshing flower beds, your success starts with the right soil and compost.

At DIY Landscape Supply, we offer a wide variety of nutrient-rich blends that improve drainage, support root growth, and deliver long-term plant health. Plus, with $75 full truck delivery, it’s never been easier to get what you need in bulk.

Why Quality Soil and Compost Matter in Utah

Utah’s native soil often lacks organic matter and drains poorly—two major obstacles to healthy landscapes. Adding compost or improved topsoil helps:

• Balance nutrients
• Retain moisture in dry conditions
• Support microbes and worms that nourish plant roots

Whether you’re growing food, planting flowers, or just trying to green up your lawn, enriching your soil is the first step to success.

Our Top Soil & Compost Products for Salt Lake City

1. Screened Topsoil

Perfect for leveling yards, prepping new sod, or reseeding bare patches. Screened for consistency and easy to spread.

2. Compost Blend

Rich in organic matter—ideal for vegetable gardens, flower beds, and soil amendment in poor native dirt.

3. Topsoil + Compost Mix

The best of both worlds—nutrient-dense and balanced texture. Great for raised beds or revitalizing tired planting areas.

How Much Do You Need?

A common rule of thumb:

• 1 cubic yard covers 100 sq ft at 3 inches deep
• Raised beds: 1.5 cubic yards fills a 4×8 bed 12 inches deep

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

A:

• Use topsoil for leveling and new lawn prep
• Use compost to enrich garden beds or poor soil
• Use a topsoil-compost mix for raised beds or landscape renovation
