Soil Removal

We had 19 tonnes of soil removed from the block today. The soil/clay to be removed was from the cutting of the block and the piering. We had to move it today as the plumbers are supposed to start the drainage tomorrow morning. Luckily we had a family friend with a bobcat and truck!! He did a great job clearing and leveling the front of the block. There is about 5 tonnes of clean fill left in the front corner which we will have to move to the back of the block over the weekend with the wheel barrow. Not looking forward to that...

  1. Hi I saw your blog through Mick and Kim's one. In case you don't actually want that fill, I've just discovered you can advertise on gumtree and anyone wanting clean fill can come get it. Or use 'freecycle', it's a yahoo group for recycling stuff. Only drawback is that it might take more than 1 weekend to get rid of it.
