What can you expect from an earthmover?
A construction or landscaping project can't be without reliable earthmoving contractors to help prepare the site and transport heavy material to and fro. Hire expert Taskers with the right expertise and equipment to make clearing land or shifting soil and rubble a hassle-free experience — no heavy lifting required on your end.
Here’s what to expect when you book earthmoving contractors on Airtasker:
Excavation and site preparation
Breaking ground on a new build or extension? Get skilled earthmoving contractors to handle everything you'll need, from digging out the foundations and basements to levelling the terrain. Proper excavation is crucial to make sure your construction project is a success, whether it's a small residential project or a large commercial site. Having experts on site ensures that your site preparation remains precise and efficient.
Soil and rubble removal
If you've accumulated piles of dirt, clay, or rubble, and they're left to clutter up your site, it's best to get Taskers to remove them for you and clear out the space. Shovelling it all by hand is a slow, back-breaking job — why endure when you can completely skip this? Instead, hire a professional earthmover to deal with construction waste, such as excess soil after a garden makeover or debris from a demolition job. Contractors will use specialised equipment to load, transport, and dispose of materials safely.
Trenching and drainage
Need to dig a trench for underground utilities, drainage pipes, or foundation footings? Avoid future issues like waterlogging or uneven ground by working with earthmoving contractors who can guarantee precision at every stage. They will create trenches to your exact specifications, observing proper grading and depth. From a small-scale job for residential drainage to a deep-cut trench for commercial infrastructure, the right contractor can get it done fuss-free.
Heavy material transport
Manually shifting heavy loads of materials like gravel or topsoil is exhausting and inefficient, especially for larger sites. By working with professional earthmovers, you can expect them to come equipped with the right machinery to handle bulk loads with minimal labour necessary. They can deliver fresh topsoil straight to your address for a garden project, or haul away construction debris.

Move clean loose soil (2 metres) from one garden bed to another
$300
Mitcham VIC 3132, Australia
27th Feb 2026
I need someone to return a pile of loose clean dry dirt from one garden bed to another nearby bed. (about 8 feet away.) Soil being moved is being stored on a plastic tarp, resting on the first garden bed. (which is full and won't be touched) The soil is only from the white tarp up, so it is all at waist height. No digging or hard lifting as such. Simply need it moved across about eight feet and then distributed evenly in the vacant garden bed, which has had some water proofing work completed in it's base. Task is very simple for anyone who doesn't mind a small amount of physical labour. In fairness, I would estimate there is about 1.5 cubic metres of soil in all and it would take about 2 hours to move it. (I'd use a wheel barrow for sure) Picture 4 shows the two garden beds (before) the work was started - just so you can see the layout of the two garden beds. Tasker must supply own tools and leave the site very clean. Any spilt soil will need to be broomed up of course. Please ask any questions. (Could be done today if you are free before 5pm)
Kieran and Keely completed a landscaping task for me. I was impressed by the good communication. When they arrived, Kieran was self-starting and used his initiative to get started on my task without me needing to micro manage the task. The task was completed perfectly and left clean and very tidy. I'd certainly highly recommend him (and Keely) and indeed use his services again.
