The invention discloses a method for reutilizing stripped surface soil of the land occupied by hill mountainous region residential district construction. The method comprises the first step of measuring and calculating the earth volume requirement of the later afforest construction project of the hill mountainous region residential district, the second step of determining the surface soil stripping area and scale according to the measured and calculated earthwork demanded quantity of the afforesting construction project, the third step of stacking the stripped surface soil in the area where the main later afforesting construction project of the residential district is located in batches, and the fourth step of covering soil on the planned and designed green area according to the designed thickness, carrying out afforest construction on the soil surface and reutilizing the stripped soil. According to the method, the precious surface soil resources are protected and reutilized, the freight volume caused by external soil conveying is avoided, the work amount is small, the method has good ecological benefits, and production cost reducing and ecological environment improving are facilitated.
