Small pile of dirt and stones to be removed and taken to the dump

$120

Eagleby QLD, Australia

23rd Jan 2026

Hi there, I’m looking for someone to shovel this dirt and take it away to the dump for me. The dirt and stones have been dug out and placed on a tarp to seperate it from the stones underneath which are to stay. I would estimate there to be about 2 wheel barrows worth of dirt to get rid of. I have a wheel barrow here which could be used to transport the dirt and a short spade but you might want to use your own shovel to take the dirt away. There is direct access from the front down the driveway, up two wooden stairs to get to the dirt in my backyard.

Mitchell did a great job removing the dirt pile for me. Very happy with his work. I would hire him again & I would recommend him.
