Mixture from Lowes to level backyard

Unless you’re removing it from the ground on their property, none. 1st it’s crap, 2nd it would cost a fortune

Find a topsoil/gravel/sand supplier in your area. They will likely have a leveling mixture of sand and compost used for this application.

I’d suggest mason sand to fill and level, which is a good material for that purpose, but then I’m also paranoid about using river silt-sand (pump sand) and potentially introducing torpedograss into the yard. Also fewer weed seeds in mason sand. Grass will grow fine through sand provided you don’t apply more than 2 inches per application. Let the grass grow through, and wash and repeat, as needed.

Local retail garden centers like Clegg’s, Louisiana Nursery, etc. sell mason sand in bulk by the 1/3, 1/2, 1 .. cubic yard. How much do you need?

I use sandy loam for my lawn. I’m not sure if it’s available in Br.

It’s not from box stores. You’ll need to buy it in bulk

I’d probably get 5 or 6 years total mixed just to make sure I had enough. I have figured out over the years there is no such thing as too much.

Playsand. But it's a about $4 for 50lbs which is nothing.
