Common fill Texas — 4,000 cubic yards available in Houston, TX 77054 from an active excavation project near the Texas Medical Center in the Inner Loop. Material is being excavated and needs to move quickly — hauling is required as dirt comes off the ground beginning around June 29th, with the full quantity needing to be cleared within approximately 3 days of excavation start. Trucking terms are to be confirmed — contact through BorrowPit.com to discuss logistics and pricing. With 4,000 CY available in a central Houston location, this listing is well suited for contractors, developers, and project teams needing significant fill volume for grading, pad construction, backfill, and earthwork across Harris County and the greater Houston metro.

What is Common Fill in Texas?
Common fill Texas is general excavation material — inorganic subsoil consisting of native clay, sandy loam, and soil mix generated from construction site grading and excavation. In the Houston area, native soils in Harris County are predominantly expansive clay-based material, commonly referred to as Houston Black Clay, which has high plasticity and shrink-swell characteristics. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality provides guidance on clean fill reuse standards for construction sites across the state, distinguishing clean excavation material from regulated solid waste. Common fill from a clean, documented excavation source is widely reused across Harris County for raising lot elevation, backfill, embankment, and site preparation on both residential and commercial construction projects. Buyers with projects requiring certified or select fill material should consult their geotechnical engineer prior to use on load-bearing applications.
Why This Listing Stands Out
- Active excavation source — material is coming directly out of the ground from an active construction project, providing fresh, uncontaminated common fill from a known site near the Texas Medical Center.
- 4,000 CY in a central Houston location — Inner Loop fill sources of this volume are uncommon. Central Houston location reduces haul distance significantly for contractors working in Harris County.
- Urgent timeline creates opportunity — material must be cleared quickly once excavation begins, creating a motivated seller and potential pricing opportunity for buyers ready to move fast.
- ~300 loads available — volume sufficient for large residential developments, commercial pad construction, and major earthwork projects across the Houston metro.
- Flexible trucking terms — seller is open to discussing trucking arrangements. Contact through BorrowPit.com to negotiate terms that work for your project.
Best Uses
- Raising lot elevation for residential or commercial pads
- Backfill for foundations, utilities, and retaining walls
- Embankment and large-scale grading
- Site preparation and rough earthwork
- Filling holes, voids, and low spots on large sites
- Road subgrade preparation
- Land reclamation and borrow material for nearby projects
