Removing soil, (planter boxes 190m2)

$3,500

Doncaster East VIC, Australia

29th Mar 2026

Hi, I hope you’re well. We have a project in Doncaster with two planter box areas at the front of the building that need to be cleared. Both planter boxes are approximately 200mm deep with soil, and the front section is around 500mm deep, with a total area of about 190m². We’re looking to organise a designated area at the rear of the site to relocate the soil. Could you please let me know if you and your team would be able to handle moving all the soil from the front of the building to the back? There is no need for it to be reinstated just removed and relocated. Regards, proflow waterproofing

I want all planter boxes and garden removed ripped up and taken away / removed . Besides SOME of the planter boxes on the wall. Also a water tank needs to be removed as well. Unsure what is in these planter boxes but could be bricks and then soil... Don't know... Don't care ...as just want them gone so I can lay artificial lawn on this entire area. Also there is retic attached so someone who is doing this will need to know how to seal off retic as well. Gravel on the area but happy to leave that alone for the artificial lawn ppl to remove that.

Looking to get someone out to knock out the existing wooden seat area in our outdoor decking space. It's somewhat rotten so we have decided to pull it out completely. It's already half dismantled.

On either side currently are merbau planter box and storage. Also open to other materials like rock etc to break it up a little bit. Give me your best option for the space and an offer.

Move Soil into Large Planter Boxes (Wheelbarrow Job)

$150

Corinda QLD, Australia

26th Oct 2025

Looking for one or two people to help move soil from a pile into large planter boxes using a wheelbarrow. It’s straightforward garden work — just moving and tipping soil neatly. Down the side, across the pool deck and into the planters. Details: • Soil pile is delivered and ready to go • We have one wheelbarrow on site. • Please bring a spade, gloves if needed and if you’re a team of two, an extra barrow would make things quicker. • 3 large planter boxes to fill. • Estimated time: about 2 hours for one person (less if two people). Corinda 4075 Today if possible. Later in the day would be cooler. $150 Ideal for someone who’s physically capable, enjoys outdoor work, and takes care not to spill soil around garden edges.

Samuel worked well and got the job done! Will book again.
