Extend a front yard trench in heavy clay soil for planting ASAP
$200
Rockbank VIC, Australia
15th Apr 2025
I have dug a trench by hand with tools (mattock/crowbar/shover) and am over it, very hard ground/clay. I would like the trench extended and deepened slightly. See attached pictures. Happy to also negotiate soil and green waste removal which is currently on my nature strip to make it a quote worth giving. Ideally I would like the trench complete ASAP so that I can plant what I like over Easter and ANZAC day long weekends. I'm sorry but this is only my 2nd time using Airtasker, please let me know if there are any questions. I've listed the job price from just googling trenching services etc, could be a quick job if you have machinery or are strong/good at digging. I'm a bit worried about pipes but have a drainage plan (doesn't appear to be pipes but I'm bad at reading plans) and don't need to go super deep. (25cm or so) Thank you for viewing my ad. Type of gardening: Other Size of garden: Under 50m² Has green waste bin: Yes
Moe is amazing, will be using his services again. Thank you brother.
