Delivered dirt commonly runs $150–$600 a dump-truck load ($10–$50 per cubic yard plus delivery), and hauling extra away can run from a few hundred dollars for a short local dump run up to $1,400–$2,300 for full-service removal. On Dirtly, the dirt itself is usually free or cheap: you are only solving the moving. You can size up your project first to see how many yards it takes.

Dallas moves most of its dirt sideways rather than outward. The lots were built on decades ago, so what comes out of the ground here comes out of pool excavations, teardowns on older streets, and slabs being regraded because the yard has been pushing water at the house for twenty years.
Almost all of it is Blackland Prairie clay, which swells when it rains and shrinks when it does not. That is why foundation work never really stops in this city, and why the spoil from one job is exactly the fill somebody in the next neighborhood is paying to have trucked in. The Trinity bottoms cut through the middle of town and behave differently again, softer and wetter than the prairie on either side.
