Spreading Top Soil: How to Save Time and Money

Why Traditional Top Soil Spreading Will Slow You Down

Spreading top soil can be a timely endeavour, especially if you’re filling 6 inches deep to help establish a new lawn or garden. As such, these jobs take more time and labor, adding to your expenses. When spreading top soil through traditional methods, these are some major hindrances:

Manual Spreading/Equipment Limitations

Traditionally, top soil is spread with manual labor and limited equipment. This is the easiest way to get a job underway, afterall, but will take more time and money in the long run. Especially on jobs where you need a certain depth of soil, manual spreading and simple equipment can fall short of ideal. 


More Labor Equals Increased Costs

Fewer laborers means longer hours and a slower job. More laborers equals a quicker job but more wages to go around. In both cases, expenses can begin to rise when dealing with manual labor on top soil jobs.


Complex Jobsite Challenges

Even with some more developed equipment for top soil spreading, some jobsites offer unique challenges/obstacles that prevent these machines from being able to fully function. Tight job spaces or delicate areas stand out as not being able to support traditional larger equipment for top soil spreading.

Comparing Traditional Methods versus the Load Launcher

Being able to spread up to 4 yards of top soil per minute, the Load Launcher is able to tackle larger jobs easily. A 44-yard fill only takes 11 minutes with our stone spreader


Meanwhile, a traditional track skid steer could take upwards of 4 hours for the same job. If you’re spreading by hand, the times are even longer! A single individual will be working upwards of 40 hours to complete this same job. 


Minimize Labor Costs and Other Equipment Rental Fees

All the time and efficiency the Load Launcher brings to the table drastically reduces other expenses of the job. Labor needs are drastically reduced while the need for other equipment rentals become obsolete, leaving you with a more streamlined process.
