Hi there, I’m looking for someone to assist with moving one cubic meter of soil to my backyard. The job involves: • Carrying buckets of soil stepping on pavers. We have turfed the access and don’t want to walk on it. • Steady, consistent pace – no rush • Easy access to the backyard . You’ll need to descend 5 steps to get to the backyard. No special skills needed – just reliability and a good attitude. Ideal for someone who’s physically fit and happy to work outdoors. You’re responsible for your safety and insurance.

don’s performance and work ethic were beyond my expectations. from the moment he arrived, i could tell he was reliable and committed. he worked steadily and without fuss, and i instantly felt i could trust him to get the job done properly. i strongly recommend don to anyone needing a dependable and hardworking airtasker. would definitely hire him again.

$250

Cromer NSW, Australia

1st Apr 2025

Removal of approximately 1.5 cubic metres of dirt and rocks as pictured from Cromer (2099). Easy access, no stairs - need this done today.

Unfortunately Tim was not equiped for this job to remove dirt and soil. He had a van that couldn’t support the full weight so wasn’t able to complete the job and I had to spend the same amount again for someone else to come and collect the remaining. He didn’t have a wheelbarrow or tools and told me the tip wouldn’t take dirt when I called them and they confirmed that they did.
