TAILINGS
Tailings is a coarse bedding sand also called “select fill”. The coarse pieces are no bigger than pea gravel (approximately ⅜” size). This product works well for pipe bedding or foundation backfill. Other common uses include: horse arenas, swimming pool pads, leveling an area, or filling trenches. Tailings compact well and allow for good drainage.
If you are building up or backfilling an area deeper than 6 inches, see: Gravel Borrow
