Last time I did this they charges me 900 bucks and was done in one day with two guys. This was on a pretty steep hill side. About 25 holes 4' deep

Don't know if you have this up in Winnipeg, but we have these 1 yard premixed concrete that you can haul on a trailer from the yard to the job site. I think max was 1.5 yard. Its a life saver not having to mix and shovel.
Some of the fence guys here will dig two holes, set the first tow posts with the panel and then set each panel as the post holes go in. Saves on measuring and alignment for them.
