I need a dirt pile (around 6 cubic metres) moved from the front of the house and laid in garden beds around the backyard. There is a double gate to go through and the path is fully concreted. The distance from the dirt pile to the garden beds is probably between 10 and 25 metres.
Matthew was prompt, professional, and communicated well. He did a thorough and tidy job based on some fairly general instructions.

Yardwork - moving topsoil
$480
Gordon ACT, Australia
2nd Oct 2024
We have about 3.5m3 of topsoil we need moved up to the back of our yard. We're almost finished doing it ourselves but have run out of time). We have a mini loader ('Kanga Kid') and 2 conveyor belts (hired). Basically, our yard is sloped and the top soil is at the front of the house. So, one person drives the mini loader to pick up the dirt and tip it onto the conveyor belt, it then falls onto the second conveyor belt and dirt falls into a wheelbarrow on the top level of the yard and that second person tips the dirt in piles where needed (would also be good to have it raked out but if there isn't enough time that's fine). See pics for how it's been working. We're about halfway done at the top level now so it should only take a couple of hours - max 3 hours. The conveyor belts were temporarily moved so they will need to be moved back so people will need to be able to lift 45kg each (the heaviest one is 90kg). Only thing you need to bring is your own gloves for pulling the dirt forward when it falls in the wheelbarrow) and to be able to operate a mini loader with relative ease. Not a hard of overly onerous job. Would prefer two people who are able to come to our place first thing tomorrow to get it finished in the morning but its a very late notice task so early afternoon is fine too. It's a straight forward and not too onerous task, but short notice and would like it done quickly so we're willing to pay $80/hr per person including fees. Priority is for people who can arrive here in the morning.
RV and his friend were fantastic. My husband and I ran out of time to do some yard work which was moving 3.5m3 of topsoil with a mini loader and 2 conveyors (sloped yard). They arrived on time in the morning and got it done. Recommend :)

Removal and replacement of garden top soil
$250
Narrabundah ACT 2604, Australia
3rd Aug 2024
We need someone to dig up and remove approximately 2 cubic metres of clay topsoil from a small back garden (about 5-10 cm depth), and then pick up and deliver 2 cubic metres of new replacement soil. The old soil can be dropped off at the tip at Mugga Lane, and the new soil picked up from Corkhill Bros (also at Mugga Lane). We will pay for the new soil. It does not need to be spread out; just dumping it nearby at our house would be fine.
