Soil Removal - Costing?
Page 1 of 1
Our builders have come back to us with an estimate pricing of $5500, for 10 loads. They didnt realise how much there would be, so the contractors that they have used and the director have agreed to pay for 5 of the loads, but it would cost us $2750.
I am in the process of getting some quotes off some excavators at the moment, and one guy seemed pretty nice and that he would do the job for cheap. He mentioned that he had a few sites that he could get rid of it to for cheap...
Anyone got any ideas?
If cost around 75plus gst for bobcat driver and 10 cubic meter truck.
and cost around 80-100 per truck to tip.
So for 10loads you will be looking at 1000. Plus time to load truck and drive to tip.
There is probably 2days work. So for bob cat 1360 approx.
so thats about $2500.
So it looks like you are covering there share as well. I dont think they are paying half like they say.
They are saying that it would be around $550 per load for the removal... I think its a bit excessive.
See, they have dug all the soil up so it just needs to be loaded onto a truck...

It's not the removing so much that is expensive, it's where ever they are taking it to dump it that can become expensive.
What area of sydney are you in? Worth getting a few quotes.
Its all clean fill... There is no rubbish in it!!
We are getting 3 separate quotes at the moment and have also spoken to the contractor that they use to see what price he would do for us...
we're in syd and ours was $350 per truck or $600 for truck & dog - supposed to be clean fill but wasn't that clean once they started to dig it up!
if it wasnt clean fill then what was it. I hope you werent building on a rubbish tip
