View product →CHOOSING FOR YOUR JOB
For Delaware drainage work, when should I choose a trapezoid bucket instead of a ditching bucket?
Choose around the required channel profile. A trapezoid bucket can shape a specified sloped section, while a wide ditching bucket is useful for loose sediment removal and broad finishing. Neither choice authorizes changing the drainage design. Send bottom width, side slopes, material and access details so the shop can compare configurations.
