I have just over 200 square feet of turf to lift so i can put my slabs down for my new shed.

Whats the best way to get it lifted and to try to maintain a decent surcace under it so i have minimal amounts of leveling ff etc to do?

Thanks

Try this...

http://www.hss.com/Fae.asp?sysPage=wsHomePage&wsCountry=UK&sysLanguage=[BASE]&resetToGroup=YES

...and put TURF in as search.


...Or get someone else to do it!

Rent a turf lifter from a hire shop. You just walk along behind it and it cuts and lifts the turf. You just roll it up (and if its decent) sell it. Infact thats what that link is to above...

You could sell it to a turf accountant. Buyer collects .
