What happens here

The excavation continued with a focus on cleaning the soil. The operator meticulously used the Kubota mini excavator's bucket and thumb to separate tree roots, plastic, and other buried debris from the 'good' soil. This careful sorting prevents these impurities from being mixed with the soil, which would otherwise result in higher 'mixed load' disposal fees at the dump facility. The process also ensures a cleaner material for any potential reuse on site.

Goal: Thoroughly clean excavated soil by removing impurities.

thumb so that was pretty cool if you do end up renting anything from the Home Depot you are going to need a 2 and 5/16 inch ball and they will supply you the trailer I kind of made they'll bolt those mistakes when I went to pick up my piece of equipment I had brought my own trailer and it's set up for a pintle hitch so I had to quit quick switch all of that out this is all pretty good material in here right this is almost like topsoil we should probably save it I ain't heard none so Tim is sorting out all the roots and as much debris like plastic and whatever else we find buried trying to keep the dirt as clean as possible whether we save it for ourselves or we take it to a dump facility it still has to be fairly clean otherwise it's considered a mixed load and just costs us more to get rid of
