Hi everyone recently bought a ditch witch 3500, couldn't pass up the deal and figured it could work well in conjunction with my backhoe and make some money. I keep reading forums and I'm sorry if this has been beat to death but I'm still very unclear on any kind of pricing I've seen some that go by foot of trench. My machine will trench 40" x 8" wide as set-up would it be the same price wether I dug the trench 40" or 24" and what about soil conditions? Should I just come up with an hourly rate for the machine and what would be a decent hourly rate? It's all wheel drive and has a 4 way front blade
