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.

Earthworks in the backyard

$1,200

Woolloongabba QLD 4102, Australia

13th Aug 2026

The main priority is to level out a mound of dirt that is in the backyard leftover from a pool installation that we had done. My guess the pile is about 10-15 cubic metres. It is on the lowest level of the property shown in the attached photos. There are different levels to the property (1m drop each retaining wall) and there is a tight section past some steps. I think it is 1700mm at the post and 1400mm where the landing is in the photos. There is also a bit of a driveway as shown in the photos. The other items that we would like to get done, is to get ready for turf to be installed. We can do the final prep but just doing the bulks for us. Thinking it would require removal of say 50mm of the current ground and replace with a topsoil. - Top level (next to pool) - Take a slight cut to level out the land with any excess cut to go to the lower level. We have already removed the concrete that was there. - Lower level - distribute the soil pile across the lower level as best as possible. - Both levels - transfer undersoil turf from front of house to each level and distribute. We can get the soil and do any final levelling by hand. We are based at a private residence in Woolloongabba. Happy to do on an hourly rate

Amazing work thanks Sam
