What do you call a load of "top soil" with bricks and concrete in it?
Question:I bought a 24 yard load of "Top Soil" and what I received was black clay mixed with 1/3 brick and concrete chunks. What is this? Is this a load of construction waste or what? Yeah, I know I got ripped off but is there something I can do to get my money back or at least get what I paid for? The delivery driver swears that what he brought me was in fact top soil. (Yeah, the top of the soil at a dump site maybe.) Oh well, enough venting.
Answers:
It's probably old black top mixed with peices of curb stone in it!
It's probably what was dug out of ditches. Technically, it's not top soil.
a patio kit of fill dirt, you got took- sorry
What you got was trash. If the company will not make good then sue them.
You got ripped off. I hope you never use those people again and that you tell everyone you know what they did to you. I hate when people get taken advantage of. Contact the Better Business Bureau. They have a great website where I live and in just a few clicks you have registered a complaint.
sounds like the top soil of a cleanup after a building burned, i see the city attorney and complain as well as city hall and see if he has a license to do business in the city and then protest his business when he comes up for renewal, and a threat to do the above may even result in a refund or new delivery
it's called fill
I call it crap
It sounds like construction fill to me. It might be used for grading around new construction. I would make them load it up and haul it away. The company that sold you the dirt had a truck at a construction site and they loaded up what was supposed to be hauled away and dumped but you got instead.
I call it fill. Write a letter saying what you want or that you'll be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau; then do it.
You got what they call "land fill". They got paid to haul it away from the source and paid to sell it to you. Sue them, small claims court.
Take pictures of the stuff. You will need evidence for the judge. No lawyers in small claims court.
