Earlier this year I did some checking around into the services that come out and suck the muck out of the bottom of your pond for a client. The average quote was $30/cu. yard.......
It would have been cheaper to drain, re-dig and refill.
Thanks. That's the first number I've seen to start filling out the cost sheet. I've only measured the shallow end and I'm running a consistent 1' of muck. 3.5 AC (~150,000 sq. ft) is ~150,000 cu ft (5500 cu yds) of muck. @ $30/cu yd, that's $165,000 +/-. OUCH!!!
