Trench, trench, trench!! No backhoe! Faster, easier to dig and backfill, and less ditch to settle over time. Just about anyone can operate a trencher. Have them digging while you are following them laying the pipe. Finish all the connections, check for leaks, backfill, and your done. An angle blade on a trencher is much faster to cover the ditch than using a backhoe.
