Machine Operator Needed – Level Yard & Spread 55m³ of Soil
$500
Yarrabilba QLD 4207, Australia
7th Oct 2026
I’m looking for an experienced machine operator/earthmoving operator to level and grade my residential block in Yarrabilba. The property is currently mostly bare dirt, as shown in the photos. I will be having approximately 55 m³ of soil delivered to the property, and I need someone experienced with machinery to spread it and properly level/grade the entire area. What needs to be done: * Level and grade the existing ground where required. * Spread approximately 55 m³ of soil once it is delivered. * Move the soil around the property and distribute it evenly across the required areas. * Rough-level the entire yard and then finish-grade it so it is smooth and ready for landscaping/grass. * Remove high spots and fill low areas where appropriate. * Ensure the finished ground has suitable fall/drainage away from the house and doesn’t create water-flow problems. * Work around the house, fences, gates, downpipes and other existing structures carefully. * Leave the entire area as evenly graded and level as reasonably possible. * Final surface needs to be suitable for laying turf/establishing grass. Machinery I will hire the machine separately, so you don’t need to provide the machine. I’m happy to hire whichever machine you recommend for the job, such as: * Skid steer / Bobcat * Compact track loader * Mini loader with grading attachment * Small excavator + grading blade/bucket I’d prefer someone who is very experienced at machine grading/levelling rather than simply someone who operates machinery. The important part of the job is getting the final levels and falls right. The block has a reasonable amount of open space, but there are fences, the house and other structures around the perimeter, so the operator needs to be comfortable working in a residential backyard. I’m looking for someone who can get the ground properly graded and ready for the next landscaping stage, rather than just roughly pushing the soil around.

I have 3 m cubed of pebbles being delivered Wednesday and need them barrowed from the front yard to the side of the house which is downhill so you'd be heading back up hill with an empty barrow. It's not too steep, 2m fall from front to back. If time permits I also need the crappy top soil from the front yard scraped back ready for some nice soild and grass, that's 2.8x 10m would like 75mm scraped. 4 hours work, $50 an hour and can pay extra if time goes over Type of gardening: Other Size of garden: 50m²-150m² Has green waste bin: No
Super hard working, Majella just ripped in and worked 2 times as hard as another young fella I’d hired!
Help us move a bunch of soil
$120
Seventeen Mile Rocks QLD 4073, Australia
16th Sep 2026
We got 5m3 soil delivered and need to move it to the backyard. It's a bit of a slope and has steps so the wheelbarrow will need to navigate up a couple of ramps. We need a strong human or 2 to help us so it doesn't take all weekend! (The picture also includes 2m3 of mulch that doesn't have to travel very far so ignore that!) Happy to negotiate on price depending on # people, time etc.
William was hard working and really lovely. 100% recommend him.
