Industrial Fill / Contractor Dump Site Business
Business Description
Industrial Fill / Contractor Dump Site — 35± Acres in Springfield, Illinois
Rare large-acreage site within the Springfield market that has historically served as a contractor and municipal dump location for concrete, spoil dirt, and related construction materials. With 35± acres of usable ground, this tract is well-suited for continued fill operations, material recycling, staging, or redevelopment subject to local approvals.
Highlights
Size: 35± acres (contiguous)
Current/Recent Use: Receiving concrete rubble and clean spoil dirt from city crews and private contractors
Potential Revenue: Tipping-fee program for concrete, asphalt, and clean dirt; on-site crushing/screening for aggregate resale (subject to permitting)
Access: Ample truck access with room for turnarounds, equipment laydown, and stockpiles
Topography: Mostly open with established fill areas and space for segregated material zones (concrete, clean dirt, aggregate)
Utilities: Power in the vicinity; well/septic or public options to be verified by buyer
Equipment/Improvements: Broad open yard; ideal for scales, crusher/screener, wheel wash, and perimeter controls if buyer chooses to install
Zoning/Entitlements: Buyer to confirm; site characteristics align with contractor yard, material storage, and recycling uses in many industrial/ag districts
Environmental/Compliance: Historical placement of inert materials (concrete and clean dirt). Buyer to perform due diligence (Phase I/II ESA, fill characterization, stormwater/SWPPP, IEPA/local permits)
Use Cases
Continued dump/fill intake under a structured tipping-fee model
Concrete/asphalt recycling with mobile or permanent crushing/screening for sale as base, riprap, or backfill
Clean dirt management (import/export), berm building, or site-balancing for future development
Contractor yard: equipment parking, pipe/culvert/aggregate storage, laydown/staging for municipal or civil projects
Why This Site Works
Scale & buffer: 35 acres provides separation from neighbors and room to operate safely
Proven demand: Ongoing municipal and contractor need for local dump/recycling options
Operational efficiency: Central Springfield location cuts haul times and fuel costs
Value-add: Opportunity to monetize inbound materials and resell processed aggregate
Offered As-Is, Where-Is. All information believed accurate but not guaranteed. Buyer responsible for confirming zoning, environmental status, and permits required for intended use.
