What the material is
Sand Clay is a naturally occurring blend of sand and clay. It combines the workability of sand with enough clay content to bind and compact.
Soil & Fill
Sand Clay & Fill Dirt Delivery for CSRA Builders
Order GLWD-produced Sand Clay for approved general fill and compactable-base applications, with pickup at Pit 421 near Aiken or dump-truck delivery across the CSRA.
Product overview
A compactable sand-and-clay mixture for base, fill, arenas, and site preparation.
How GLWD supplies it
Sand Clay is mined from GLWD’s four pits. Because it is a natural material, its color, texture, and moisture content may vary between locations and loads.
When not to use it
Sand Clay is not intended to be a decorative finished surface. It may also be unsuitable where free drainage is the primary goal because its clay content holds more moisture than clean sand or washed stone.
Pickup and delivery
Pickup at Pit 421 or dump truck delivery. Confirmed when ordering.
Truck and load options
Available for pickup or delivery in all GLWD load sizes. GLWD can help select a truck based on the amount needed and site access.
Quantity guidance
Measure the length and width of the area and the desired material depth. For irregular areas, divide the project into smaller sections and measure each one. A phone can help collect approximate measurements—iPhones include the Measure app, and similar measuring apps are available for other phones. Include an allowance for compaction when estimating the required depth. Use the Product Finder Quiz if you are still choosing a material, then estimate your quantity.
Delivery preparation
Choose a firm, level dump location with enough room for the driver to enter, raise the truck bed, unload, and leave safely. Check for low tree limbs, overhead power or communication lines, gates, narrow entrances, soft ground, steep slopes, and tight turns. Identify anything hidden beneath the route or dumping area, including septic tanks and drain fields, irrigation lines, pipes, culverts, utility lines, recently filled trenches, and other breakable structures. Dump trucks are extremely heavy and may crack concrete or asphalt, especially when crossing edges or leaving the paved surface. The driver makes the final decision about whether the requested location can be reached safely. For arena projects, plan where the material will be staged and have equipment available to spread, grade, and compact the base.
