Topsoil (Black Dirt) and Compost for Wheaton (IL)
We pulverize and store our topsoil (also called black dirt) at our facilities in Bolingbrook. Your topsoil remains dry and ready for your Wheaton project as well.
If you are working on a flower or vegetable garden, adding compost provides organic matter and nutrients that help to help break up soil structure, making the compost an ideal garden amendment.
Our different types of compost for Wheaton gardens and lawns include:
- Organic Compost – a by-product of recycled organic material such as leaves, vegetable scraps and small twigs that become a rich amendment known as “Black Gold”
- Organic Mushroom Compost – composted straw, horse manure and peat
- Purple Cow Classic Compost – 100% plant-based product for soil aggregation that makes nutrients more available for the plant
For a vegetable garden that requires manure, our Composted Horse Manure is aged and turned regularly for supporting optimal results.

If you have a truck or trailer for picking up your gardening soil or “topsoil near me,” remember that one cubic yard of topsoil (27 cubic feet) weighs about one ton (2,000 pounds). You’ll want to be sure your truck or trailer can manage the load you will transport.
To ensure proper tractor loading, the trailer or vehicle should not have a cap or a rack. (Please note that Tim Wallace Soil Mix Supply is not responsible for any vehicle damage during loading or unloading.)
