it means it has had all the crap removed from it. However topsoil is a very loose term. there are different grades and different definitions of screening. e went to a job where one couple had paid £120 for a load of topsoil to be put in their front garden. Very nicely screened, except it was pure clay that had been put there. Sample it first and if you dont like the look of it dont accept it. get it from a decent landscape supplier, you get what you pay for

Thanks for explaining. Thing is, I was gonna order it online, so I won't see it. This is what their website says for the compost and topsoil:
Green Waste Compost, an environmentally friendly and high quality alternative to peat products. An ideal soil conditioner and substitute for topsoil in gardens, or for topdressing on sports turf areas.
Topsoil, top quality soil sourced from green field sites (as opposed to skip waste!). Screened to 20mm or 10mm.
Does that sound good, bad or indifferent?
