Move soil from a pile in the street to bags in the driveway

$100

What a great guy! This was HARD! This rock probably weighed 300 pounds min and broke 2 dollies but he was smart and we figured it out with a bit of physics and brute strength. He was always cheerful even under the duress of the heat and a huge rock falling on a body part . Wr worked as a team and he gave good instructions . I will definitely use him again, he is a joy.
