Howdy folks, first post in several years, hope everyone is doing well! If I am in the wrong sub-forum please move it mods.
I searched several terms trying to find previous posts about this but struck out, let me know if I missed one.
Does anyone know of any manufacturers on the east coast that makes a gravel/pipe box for installing pipe/gravel in a septic leach line? I used to have one but I sold it 20+ years ago when my work turned more towards commercial and development. Well fast forward to 2018 and I am starting to do more septics and general residential work again, I got tired of the insane level of regulation/permitting/oversight for development work that has taken over around here so I am switching gears, back to my roots
In case I was as clear as mud, I'm talking about the steel "box" on skid runners with the pull plate on a chain that you grab with the backhoe teeth and pull towards you as you grade the ditch, keep it filled with gravel and a 100' roll of perf pipe loaded in it and it beds the pipe in the gravel following the grade of the ditch, get to the end of the ditch and pull it out. Not a trench shoring box, and not a gravel bedding box. I bet some of the folks on here use one of these and knows what I'm talking about. Where did you get it?
I'm pretty sure I remember it well enough to make one if I have to, but like most folks these days, time is what I am short on. I found one company out in Oregon, but the freight will no doubt add up, that's why I'm looking for east coast or nearby.
