Moving gravel for driveway and top soil to grass for levelling

$10

Holland Park West QLD 4121, Australia

18th Sep 2025

I’ve had gravel and top soil delivered. Just needing someone to move it into piles so I can level it. Will need their own wheelbarrow Flexible on when. Hoping to be before the weekend

Ajay completed the job of moving gravel and dirt as requested. However, he unexpectedly arrived with his dog, which he allowed into my property without first checking if I was comfortable with this or if my own dog was friendly. This made me feel uneasy. While the task itself was carried out, I found the communication to be unusual at times and occasionally inappropriate.
