About This Product
Select Fill Sandy Clay Mix is a premium fill material engineered to provide a balance of workability, compaction, and stability. The combination of sandy soils and clay particles creates a material that can be placed, graded, and compacted efficiently while maintaining the structural characteristics necessary for many construction and site development applications.
This material is frequently used by contractors, developers, builders, and property owners for building pad construction, house pads, site grading, elevation corrections, utility backfill, and general site preparation. The sandy component helps improve workability and placement, while the clay content contributes to compaction and long-term stability.

Fill Dirt — Select vs. Common vs. Pond
Fill materials are classified by their compaction characteristics and suitability for specific applications. Select fill meets TxDOT specifications for structural backfill near foundations and utilities. Common fill is general earthwork material for grading and raising elevation. Pond fill is clay-heavy material that compacts to limit water migration — used for pond sealing and berms.
