I am very limited on where it can be dumped because of an asphalt driveway. 5y will only need to go 20 feet or so and the other 10 will need to go about 200 feet. thanks

My BX could do 15 yards of gravel in a day. You should be done before lunch. good luck sounds like fun.

I moved 10 -11 yards of road rock about 80 feet in less than 4 hours with my BX1850. With a B it should go even faster.

have fun and keep the rubber side down

Thanks for the replies....I am having it dumped in a bad spot and I just wanted to make sure moving it wont be too big of a deal.

I moved a couple of dump truck loads with my BX2660 because I really didn't want to go bring another tractor from a farm four miles away; your tractor will move stuff lots better than my BX. I like doing that sort of stuff.

I have four truck loads waiting on me now, but I will use my L5030 this time. I could use a bigger tractor, but I am in no hurry.

I have been moving a lot of dirt and rock out and sand in for a sand box/playhouse for the grandkids. It usually takes about 3 - 4 scoops with the B2920 bucket to move a 1/2 yard of sand. If you have something heavy to keep on the back of the tractor like a box blade it is a good idea. Also, remember to keep that bucket low when moving and especially turning. It is easy to get in a hurry and with the bucket up it gets very unstable.

Now that I think about it 10 cy of mulch was a full days work but the actual tractor part was very quick and easy. Spreading and cleaning the old crap out took almost all of the time. With the gravel I will probably not get off the tractor. One thing is for sure - a heavy loader full of anything is much easier with the backhoe on.

I've done that with a spade and a wheel barrow.:)
