I had my lawn ripped out last summer to put in artificial turf, and I found out that it was quite expensive to get the dirt/sod disposed of. There were places that had "a spot" to dump it, but you can't simply take it to the city landfill without paying a lot.

How much square footage do you have? Have you considered artificial turf? It's a higher up front cost, but super low maintenance (no mowing, watering, weeds) and it stays green year round

Would I be better off....

1) Rototiller and 5 guys raking
2) Hiring a guy with a bobcat to skim the lot clean

Both scenarios will involve fresh top soil being put down.


Also, in terms of disposing, the city website claims weeds have to be bagged? Is this true?
And if I go the bobcat route like metalilcat, I assume you had a dumpster to put all of the dirt into and I imagine the dopping cost wasn't cheap (but again wonder how to get around the citys claim of weeds needing to be bagged).

Thanks again!!
