17 open listings within 25 miles of Aurora right now (7 have dirt to move, 10 want dirt).
Aurora is large wooded lots, wetland edges, and a steady run of pools, additions, and landscaping. Dirtly is a free map that lines up the dirt those projects displace with the neighbors who would rather not buy a load.
The bigger the lot, the bigger the earthmoving — and Aurora has plenty of both. A pool or a walkout addition here can turn out more spoil than the property can absorb, while somebody a road away is building a berm or filling a wet corner. Same county, opposite needs, no way to find each other until now.

October is the last comfortable month for regrading and seeding before the ground gets cold, so anything needing to be moved is usually moved now rather than in November.

What dirt actually costs
In Northeast Ohio, a delivered tandem load of fill dirt typically runs $150–$400. Screened topsoil costs more per yard, $20–$40. Delivery alone is usually $50–$150 per trip, which is why free dirt from a neighbor still isn’t free.

Work out the yards first
The calculator turns your length, width, and depth into a rough cubic-yard number — and reminds you to add a little for settling.
A soggy low corner in a lawn, usually yes. A designated wetland, no — those are protected and filling one is a serious problem, and Portage County has them. If the wet area holds water most of the year or supports marsh plants, check before you fill anything.
How much spoil does a pool dig produce?
Typically fifty to a hundred-plus cubic yards for an inground pool. A pickup carries about two, so this is dump-truck territory. Post the honest number and whether you can load — that is what decides who can actually take it.
Is Dirtly free to use in Aurora?
Yes — free for individuals across Aurora and Portage County, no listing fee and no cut. A pin may offer the dirt free or name a price for hauling; Dirtly just makes the introduction.
