Screening my soil of big rocks
So I moved into my new house last year, and they decided to grade it very late in the year. Anyway, the top soil they put on is full of huge rocks.. no, make that boulders (though I can still manage to lift the heaviest one so far). Basically it all has to go before sod can be laid.
I've already talked to the builder and they said it's random whether you get screened loam or not. They said I got unlucky and got unscreened stuff. Which is retarded cause no other house seemed to have gotten the chunky shit that I got. Anyway, I am going to try and talk to them some more but it does not look positive.
I've already tried picking up some of them and carting them to the front of the house (and there's TONS as I am on a big pie lot). I figure it will take me a week to pull out all the rocks and move them.. Which brings me to my problem.
What the fuck should I do with them? I'll probably end up with at least 2000 lbs of rock and not know what to do. I assume it'll cost a lot to have a truck come and haul it off. Otherwise, can I hire someone to bring a truck or some equipment in and screen it for me? I've only did MAYBE 1/20th of my yard and there's already a nice pile of rocks building up.
I honestly don't mind moving the shit to the front, but it's what I am going to do with them that's causing me a headache. Can anyone recommend or know of a company that does this (either screening on my lot, which is preferred, or carting away literally a TON of rocks)?
My other plan is to drive around the neighborhood and see if any other house got the same crappy stuff that I got, and if not, then I'll raise a stink or even take them to small claims for being treated unfairly...
You have a couple of photos that are great... you must be very good at photoshop!
