Soil is not a problem as the house is built on top of a small quarry, The earth only needs to be loaded and driven 50 yards before it can be tipped down a large hole, price around 2k to pay a local ground works to do it, depends if its all sand stone boulders or soil or a nice mixture of both. Will save the boulders for dressing the retaining walls. Top soil I shall stash in a pile in a field somewhere and the rest probably will be clay which can go over the edge. I will probably buy a digger for use during the project, something around a 3 tonne. Using it to dig the 2000 tonnes though would wear that and myself out.
