Removed Top 200mm of Soil from Four Garden Beds in Mount Eden

Summary

Removing the top 200mm layer of soil from four garden beds in Mount Eden required careful manual handling and clear site planning. The job covered an estimated 6 m³ of soil across beds that ranged from 7m x 0.7m to a rear fence line plus a 2m x 2m corner. Access was constrained by a 95cm pedestrian gate with two paved steps and no off-street parking, so wheelbarrows were used for all movements and machinery was ruled out. The job attracted four offers and the selected offer was $1250. The local professional brought a small crew, shovels and multiple wheelbarrows and coordinated off-site disposal of the excavated waste. Work was completed over two days with manual digging, barrowing soil along the front path and removal to a legal disposal site. The customer rated the job 5/5 and noted the team were punctual, friendly, communicative and very hard working on a tough two-day job.
