[QUOTE="D2Cat, post: 1668905, member: 19322"] Around here prices would range from $1.50-$2 a foot. If you have the time or have an employee operate a machine, rent a ride on trencher. The time to dig 500' with no rock is only determined by how much the operator crowds the machine, but I'm guessing a couple of hours digging at the most. Then to backfill, the trencher will have a backfill blade which is 10 times faster then a tractor with a bucket because it has power angle. You just line it up and the crumbs fall it. Take half an hour to backfill. Tip: always start backfilling from the end of the trench where you finished, pushing to the end you started! [/QUOTE]
