What is common fill used for?

Common fill is unspecified bulk soil used for general grading, raising low spots, leveling yards, backfilling non-structural trenches, and any application where settlement or PI is not a concern. It's the most affordable fill option we deliver.

Can common fill be used under a foundation?

No. Common fill does not meet the plasticity index requirements for structural applications like foundation pads or slab subgrade. For those uses you need select fill (PI ≤ 20). Common fill is suitable for landscaping, berms, and low-load grading.

How is common fill priced and delivered?

Common fill is priced by the cubic yard and delivered by dump truck; load size depends on truck class, material density, and legal weight limits. Call or submit a request for current source and scheduling options.
