We're hiring, experience of sludging&weedcutting and general watercourse maintenance? Give us a call for more info.
Sportsturf drainage going well at @Hymers_College.
@ArableMen @clunsey8 Agree, 25+ year lifespan it's a sound financial investment.As they say 'you can't farm wet land'!
@FarmservicesLtd @dixondrainage does the Dakota vibrate? CT12's are good with the belt in the bottom but still bridge if sand is wet.
@FarmservicesLtd I agree,we used manpower! Vibrating the tub works too but in both cases the drier the sand the better it runs.
Great weather for earthmoving.
