How big of 4 trucks are you chasing?

600t of dirt would be roughly 250m3 of compacted material. It'll be loose material when it gets excavated and dumped in trucks so realistically you are talking 300-320m3.. (definitely depends on soil type).

300m3 is 6 fully loaded B-Doubles. Probably ain't gonna be allowed to have a B-Double down a residential street. So you might be talking more realistically a tip truck. Which might hold 18-25m3.

That's a lot of trucks.
