Installing a swale

[warksfarmer]

Been asked to install a swale approx 1,000 metres long. It needs to be about 2m wide and 500mm deep. 360 or is there anything else we could hire?

Surely you don't install it, you dig it?

Depends what you are doing with the spoil, a dozer would quickly do it and spread it out.
