I hope you have a good, large wheelbarrow. If not, go buy one. It pays for itself. If it's a little whimpy wheelbarrow, bury it in the yard.

A fork is good, too, but they run about 75.00. You can use forks for moving things as light as topsoil a lot faster. I'm talking the short, wide ones. A million uses.

Don't whimpy around with crap. Right hand tools. Yards are pretty much about moving material.

Croc has two, and two of the longer kind, I betcha.

Moving 10 cubic yards of topsoil should give you
an appreciation of the term "the whole nine yards"
which I think refers to a cement truck's capacity.

The advice about a heavy-duty wheelbarrow is good.
I don't know what a "fork" is. I imagine it to be
a small tractor with a scoop on the front.

Good luck with the soil toil ...
