Where to get sand for yard fill

Lowe's or Home Depot has playground sand pretty cheap. It should be about $3 or $4 for a 50 lb bag. Usually near the rocks/gravel in the lawn and garden area. I filled some spots in my yard with it several years ago. If you're needing a bunch of it try somewhere else, but just for filling a few small spots it does the trick.

This. Lowes actually had a sale on it yesterday. $2.50 for 50 lb bags. I picked up 5 to fill the holes that the weeds I killed left in my yard.

As someone said, use bleached sand. You won't introduce new weeds and junk in your yard. This tip was given to me by a landscape friend.

I found a guy in Watson that delivers for $150/15 yd truck. It will be more to get it to BR, but that's really cheap fill sand. Depends on how much you need.

Instead of starting a new thread, I will just ask here, where is the best place to get a truck load of topsoil? I just had concrete poured and built a fence, my yard is completely torn up from concrete trucks and the delivery of fence materials. Beyond that, it's uneven and bumpy. I'm thinking a load of dirt will solve all my problems.

Anyone know where I can get a truck load of dirt in Walker? Also, I guess a mini skid steer is probably the best way to spread it out, no?
