What does a soil removal service include?

Looking for soil removalists near you is easy when you do it via Airtasker. We’ll connect you with available and nearby soil removal services who can handle your task quickly and conveniently. That means you’ll have more time to focus on the other things on your to-do list, especially if this task is part of a gardening or construction project.

If you’re handling soil removal for the first time, here’s what you can expect from your removalist:

Soil pick-up

When you book a Tasker to do soil removal, they’ll come to your location with the necessary equipment. Tools can include bags, shovels, a truck, a skip bin etc. Just point to the pile of soil or the area, and the removalist will do the rest. If it’s a rather large area, there may be more than one Tasker who will handle the job. 

Whether it’s garden soil removal for a landscaping project or topsoil removal for a construction site, Airtasker can help you find a removalist who can take care of it. Here’s a tip: make your task post as specific as possible so that prospective Taskers can give you a more accurate quote. This also helps them prepare in terms of equipment and human resources.

Soil removal

Once the soil has been cleared and loaded into the truck/vehicle, the removalist brings it to your chosen removal site. This can be a landfill, recycling facility, or construction company. If you decided to give your excess soil to a friend who needs it for gardening, they could bring it there, too. Just mention this location in your task post. 

If you still haven’t chosen a “recipient” for your soil, the Tasker may be able to give you options. Since they handle other soil removal tasks in your town, they are most likely familiar with the places that could make use of your soil. Though this may vary from Tasker to Tasker, some may even know the local protocols for dumping dirt with rocks or handling soil that may be contaminated. 

Soil removal isn’t the only thing you can ask a Tasker to do. Airtasker can also connect you with people who can help you get rid of other rubbish, such as scrap metal or rubble. We also have removalists for other items like appliances. Taskers can help make your next cleaning or renovating project a bit more convenient.

Empty soil from 18 x planter boxes - approx 70 m3

$5,000

Fortitude Valley QLD, Australia

3rd Apr 2025

We have 18 planter boxes in the block of units - each approximately 6m x 1m x 0.5m deep. Four planters at the back around double that width. I've calculate 70-odd cubic metres but allow +/- 10%. There are nine at the front and nine at the back. You'll have to use bulker bags and there is no truck or machinery access although we might be able to remove a section of fence to allow a small machine in. The rear bulker bags will have to be lifted out by franna. The job has to be done all by hand. All plants and root balls will be removed prior. Not a job for the faint-hearted and I reckon will take the best part of seven days. Site inspection is essential so please don't make an offer until you've seen the job. Just thought I'd add, I'm the building manager here and will coordinate all access, pedestrian and vehicle control etc. I'm an old tradie myself(concreter, builder's labourer and sparkie who's done more than his share of digging over the years so I understand how to make the job as easy as possible. Address is 25 James St Fortitude Valley.

Remove soiled carpet from a 1 bedroom apartment

$200

Bowen Hills QLD, Australia

21st Mar 2024

We have a one bedroom apartment that needs all the carpet removed. The previous tenant had a medical episode and has soiled the carpet in several places. We have large bins on site that can be used to put the old carpet in - it will probably need to be cut to fit in the bin. There is minimal furniture in the apartmnet, so you will not need to move much to remove the carpet.

Ricardo and his crew were prompt and efficent. I would recommend Ricardo, and would use him again!
