Getting floor ready for barn

[Rhuntley]

So we have a pole shed being built and I just ordered a new tractor.(Kubota L2800, very excited!) I'm going to pull out some trees and bushes that are there then I was thinking about getting in some clay soil (Our current soil is clay) just to fill in what I pull out.

When I put it all in and level it out(Have a box blade coming too) am I able to drag the front loader or any easy way to compact it well enough without going and renting a walk behind compacter? Or are there fairly reasonable attachments I can get for the tractor to compact?

Fill your bucket on the FEL with gravel/stone or wet dirt/clay ........ drive over new clay repeatedly :thumbsup:

"new member" doesn't give your location.
From my experience, which I wish SOMEONE had advised
ME of, PLACE FOAM insulation on the ground before the concrete
pour. Would have saved me a lot of money in ruined hay and other
issues. Spend a few bucks for foam!
