Renting a tip bin provides a simple option for disposing of soil. A tip bin can be delivered easily after an over the phone chat and then paid for depending on how long you want it. You can then work at your own pace with the bin left for you on your worksite. This option is most desirable if you want to handle the dirt yourself don’t want dirt sitting on top of your grass.

2. List it online!

3. Leave a “Free” sign out

Similar to listing online, leaving our a “free” sign might catch the eye of potential takers in the area. This is one of the easiest ways to get rid of soil as contractors and DIY’s are always looking to cut costs.
