  • This was approx. 8.5m x 4m. I could not imagine taking it through a house. Are there no other means of access? Basically we were flat out for a full day with two wheel barrows. Sifting soil is time consuming as I did it for another section of the garden - maybe 2 tons of it.

  • No access. Previously we had two 2x1m raised beds and another massive long one down the right. Were about -1' from grounds level at the deepest on the left there. That's all gone to the allotment now, huge 8x4" sleepers, each bed 2 sleepers high, I think the longest were 2.4m. Yes it's a ball ache, but what ya gonna do. The garden is well shaded by a massive Oak so not sure why the previous owners chose to put those in. The trommel had sped up grading a lot, with another pair of hands to spin it, it would grade the soil as fast as I can shovel it in.

  • A digging party? Many hands make light work.
    That looks like a tremendous amount of work. Personally, if time wasn’t an issue, I would do it myself. Hard to pay someone for that type do work when everything about it is awkward and slow.
