Stones/Beach Pebbles/Crushed Rock

Rent a Toro Dingo for the day?

 

Didn't know what it is. Had to look it up. That might work. Better than hand bombing 4500 lb of boulders to the back myself.

The side of the house is about 8 inches more than a standard garbage can.

 

Delivery day...

 

I don't envy your lower back in the coming days.

 

Nothing like manual labor to kill your back

Fill bucket
Carry it all the way up to the front at incline
Dump
Redo again

Made this progress today
After this part finished
Have the side

Then back

No idea how I will take boulders to back but can’t think that far ahead

 

.....

 

Use a dolly or a cart

 

That’s the plan

Put boulders into bucket
Take it to back of house using dolly

However then I have 4 steps to go up
Will see what happens


All my friends think I am nuts and should just get Hispanics at Home Depot for the day

 

Make a ramp over the stairs

 

...

 

Gracias
Will try that

 

That's a start. If a Dingo is too big/expensive for your application, see if your local rental yard has something like a DR Power Wagon. We have one here at work with a power dump bed.

 

Dingo is too big

I am ok with expensive
But side of house is so narrow
With gas. Enter
Tank less water heater
All there
Too much hazard

I will look at your above option

MAking slow progress on rear

Was putting 3 boulders each bucket
And carried 2 buckets at a time all day

 

Front almost done
But ran out of white stones (cost 4–6 x as much as regular stones)
Have to order more

@OZ-T

Thank you for your help
Project is completed
Back is tender
But oh well
Needed to go back for 7 bags of more rocks (960lb)
Now garbage will collect all pallets next week

Appreciate the help
Nice to be able to say I did it all myself

 

Looks great

 

Couple of more
