Yes..... concrete pump will run you about $300 for a couple hours.

Most can reach about 75 feet, some 150ft. Best to find a concrete supplier that will give you a quote to Supply, Pump and Place the concrete (IMO) then you have one price per cubic yard and not a concrete truck (late as usual), and hourly pumper truck and hourly labor to place???

Also, if they do a lousy job "placing" or "supplying" the concrete, you have more clout with a larger company making good. >>>> Honeycomb in concrete is one example of poor placing.
