$45,500 For Moving DIRT?! Something's WRONG. My Experience Working With Excavators

Spending $45,500 for moving dirt with an excavator in the most isolated spot in Texas is crazy. Finding pros in one of he most isolated spots in Texas was... difficult.
But it was time to learn from professionals and get some experience working with excavators. Yes, it's more expensive that way, but ultimately, time is the more precious commodity. I did manage to drag some companies out to the property in the middle of nowhere. They pointed out some major flaws in my idea. Big flaws = Big $$$
