  Most of the signs meaning that I see say “Clean fill for sale” meaning fill dirt. They know big AG isn’t one to fuck with.

  Dirt can be clean if its not polluted with fuel oil or other industrial contaminants. The last thing you want to put on your yard for ground leveling is a truckload of whatever earth is coming out of the closest EPA superfund site.

    This.

    They are meaning free of contaminants. Take that sign with a grain of salt, and always soil test, particularly if you intend to grow anything.

      What if I wanna grow a third arm and tomatoes that scream at the sunrise?

        It’s more of a “die slowly from heavy metal toxicity” thing.

    Primarily, that’s true. Clean fill is also usually free from any large rocks that would make shoveling difficult.

    Thank you for the clarification.

    It’s still funny to me that dirt that is dirty per definition (maybe even the dirtiest substance of them all, one might argue) can be clean.

      I feel like this is rapidly approaching the “is water wet?” conundrum.

  You haven’t been around really dirty dirt.
