EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENTS
FOR Maryland.
Maryland's stormwater projects and forested properties make precise earth shaping and selective material separation useful priorities. These recommendations address planned drainage work and clearing tasks while keeping the site's design requirements central.
Controlled shaping around water and working land.
Use this guide to compare tools for stormwater · shaping · selective clearing. The state context below explains the applications; your machine, material and required finish determine the final attachment. These are selection recommendations, not statewide sales rankings.
The Maryland Stormwater Design Manual includes guidance for environmental site design, bioretention, filters and open channels—applications where excavation profile and finishing control matter.

What should a Maryland swale or bioretention project specify before a bucket quote?
Supply the designed profile, working width and finish requirements rather than just asking for a drainage bucket. Compare smooth-edge ditching for cleanup with a tilting bucket where angle control is needed. Include the machine and hydraulic information for tilting. The attachment should follow the project’s planned excavation; it does not determine the drainage design or authorized limits of work.

INQUIRE.
- Provide the specified swale cross-section, slope and finish requirements.
- Confirm carrier hydraulics and clearance before choosing a tilting bucket.
- Follow the project's approved limits of disturbance; attachment selection does not authorize clearing or waterway work.
- Always provide machine make and model, coupler type and required pin-on measurements. See the measurement guide →
