when having a load of lose soil which is on land, and needs to be transported from a to b (permission has been granted to take it from the site)

in a car, in bags,

when using heavy duty rubble sacks (similar size to black bags)

then when using a shovel to fill the bags up, so that they can be transported from place a to place b,



then the bags will be transported in Many trips, to the other location.
(labour intense I know)


The soil is lose ((so does NOT need digging up)

then trying to get an estimate for how long it would take to bag up 100 of these bags ?

(Only the job of filling 100 bags, with a shovel) - NOT including the driving time etc.

Have you done this before? how long did it take you?


(I know it depends on who does it, how strong they are, their stamina etc, but just a rough estimate)
