What happens here

Utilize a skid steer loader (e.g., Bobcat S185 T180 shown) equipped with a large bucket to strip away the existing turf and topsoil from the designated areas. This material is then collected into large piles on the site. A backhoe loader (like the John Deere 310J shown) can assist in loading these piles into a dump truck for off-site disposal, creating a clean, barren canvas for the new landscape.

Goal: Remove existing grass and excess topsoil to prepare for regrading and new installations.
