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.
