I don't like throwing away my topsoil either, cos its good stuff and the stuff you buy is expensive and source unknown.
I've thrown turves from new planting areas into a composting bin. Now in theory if you have the mix right, ie lots of non-soil to mix with it, then it ought to compost quickly. But in practice I didn't have enough of the other stuff for the right mix, so it has taken a good two years to become lovely stuff.
