Dig Trench in flower bed
$350
Northbridge NSW, Australia
15th Jul 2024
We are looking for someone to dig out the soil from our flower bed so that we can prepare to plant a hedge. Please see photos attached of the flowerbed. Â The dimensions of the flowerbed are 8.0m long x 0.9m wide x 0.3m deep. There is some bedrock down one end of the space, so the total dig will be a little less than these dimensions and you will need to dig around the rock. Â The soil is to be placed on a tarp on the concrete block next to the flower bed, see photo. Â You will need to bring your own tools, we have a shovel you can borrow but it is not very large.
Sonny was fantastic ! Will be using his services in the future. Highly recommend.

Dig a trench in my backyard and remove the soil
$75
Bondi Beach NSW, Australia
23rd Aug 2023
There is a small garden area in my backyard, and I need someone to come and dig up a trench that is about 3-4m long, 40cm wide and 40cm deep so that I can plant things there. There is a lot of old mulch and roots in the soil that need to be removed from the property, so you will need a wheelbarrow and a trailer to take away the organic matter. You will need a sharper tool like a pick axe to cut away at some of the underground stubborn roots. In the photo, the trench will be against the back wall - Due date: Needs to be done on Wednesday, 23 August 2023

Remove sand and small rocks from a trench channel drain
$120
Coogee NSW 2034, Australia
19th Jun 2023
Using trench shovels and perhaps your hands as well, you will need to shovel a fair bit of sand and little rocks out of a trench drain and into a wheel barrow or buckets. Length of trench is about 12m. See photo. Wheel barrow or buckets are supplied. Shovels can be supplied if you don't have the tools. I have estimated it will take a maximum of two hours work for one person. Therefore, 2 hours at $60 per hour, the fixed price is $120. If the job takes less than 2 hours, you still get paid $120. If the job takes longer, you get paid an extra $30 for every half an hour over time. Suits 2 people or more. Or else one person can do it. Please let me know how many people, if you have your own trench digging tools, and which day you can do it. - Due date: Flexible
Hard worker. Experienced. Job done extremely well.
