FAQ's
Please visit our product calculator to get a good estimate of how much material you’ll need to complete your project.
Weight measurements are statistically much more accurate than volumetric measurements. Our product calculator can convert tons to cubic yards based on the estimated density of each of our products.
In the Virginia/Maryland/D.C. area, we can typically fulfill an order of up to 250 tons within 48 hours of your order.
As a standard practice, when asked to deliver our material to customer job sites and locations, we ship up to 25 tons of material per load on a dump trailer or standard single body dump truck.
We proudly serve customers across Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. with on-hand inventory ready to meet the demand of your next project. Please contact us at 1-877-904-5825 to discuss ordering and pick-up in your area.
Freight on Board. When we quote a product price on any of our materials, this price includes getting it safely loaded onto a truck from where it is picked up.
Our soil and sand products are typically screened at either 6mm or 3.75 mm. There are no rocks, sticks, twigs, or other debris in our materials unless they pass through these size screens. 6mm equates to about ¼ inch. 3.75 mm equates to about 1/8 inch. Additionally, our soil products are tested for physical, chemical, and biological consistency.
Every 500-700 tons of product we ship, regarding each of our produced materials, we collect samples and send to independent professional, certified labs, outside of the Luck Ecosystems Central Lab. The independent labs we use are varied. We typically have these labs perform chemical, (pH) nutrient, (macro nutrients, CEC, base saturation) and biological (organic matter) testing on all samples provided.
Our base material used in the majority of our soil, sand and custom blends is derived from sites where we ensure there has never been heavy industry, military, or other types of pollution introduced to the ecosystem.

We do not install, but will be happy to recommend a quality partner for this work.
Yes. Maintaining bio-retention ponds is important to ensure good permeability. The system works by allowing the groundwater to naturally filter through the media. If the bio-retention pond becomes inundated with weeds or debris that do not allow the water to permeate through the surface then the systems will not function properly. Selection of appropriate plants to place in the pond structure is critical to reducing overall maintenance.
Yes. As nitrates in solution, and/or, phosphates travelling in and on sediment are introduced into a biofiltration system, they begin their journey down through the bio soil profile. Some pollutants are captured regarding the physical characteristics of soil, by allowing bridging to occur, trapping pollutants throughout the micro and macro pores. Most pollutants are captured chemically by negatively and positively charged ions, which hold up and bind these elements to the soil colloid. In a relatively short period of time, (days and sometimes hours) soil biology takes over, as microbial critters attack and consume all sorts of introduced pollutants- nitrates and phosphate included. Over a longer period, these pollutants are excreted into the soil profile as digested soil humus.
