Sieve it over your yard grass as a top dressing. Works a treat.

Or just spread it around the areas where the bushes are. It really isn’t excess soil.

Good idea of spreading on lawn...Alternative, taken about ten Home D. buckets of good soil to the plant nursery east on 644... Told to thrown the soil on their big dirt pile... : )

If I have just soil, I spread it on my lawn. If there's sod from a small landscaping project, I put it in a few home depot pails and go for a drive down a county road.

Nice, I could definitely use a wheelbarrow full of soil to spread around the foundation gaps of my newly built birdcage.

If Yogi Berra were alive, he would probably tell you to dig a hole and put it in it!

The garbage men will take it. But they will take the wheel barrel too. Place the dirt in unwanted boxes or plastic bags.

I’m sure someone would take it, put it in the classified ads!

Put it in a construction grade trash bag and place it by the road with a free soil sign and watch it disappear.

Maybe under the powerlines? Only 1 wheelbarrow no one would even notice.

I think Andy stole that idea from The Great Escape (1963), but Shawshank is a much better movie in my opinion.
