Spiralling you don't need to dump all the speed. Just enough to not
compensate the gravity pull.

Compare to those coming back into the Earth. If they want to land alive
and don't burn, they need to shed the speed, via friction with the
atmosphere. If surviving is not a concern, then just go down full speed.
As long as it is less than the orbital speed, it goes down. Hours,
years... not an issue. :-)

The real problem is rising all those tons to Earth orbit and more,
expending fuel. Any estimate of how many tons? And then how many rockets?

If it were possible, I'd land then on the Moon. Just in case we can use
the waste many years into the future.

But it is not possible.
