Hello, This may sound nuts, but I have a problem with excess dirt. . I am going to put soakaway drains in my yard to handle some poor drainage conditions. I have a generally flat yard. The lot is about 3/4 acres. It's a typical builders lot with about 4 inches of loam over sandy, clay, rocky hardpan soil. Basically, its crap. I am going to be digging out a couple of long trenches 2' wide x 2' deep, filling it with stone, etc . The problem...what do I do with all the lousy soil that gets dug out? Sounds like a crazy question, but I have no place to put it. I guess i need some ideas on what can be done. . Thank you for your time.
