I need a hole in the ground of about 7m by 7m by 3m dug by a KYM guy. How much lumpsum would you estimate it would cost? The soil is loamy. Finding the pricing for such things is very difficult. Asanteni in advance wanawazoo.

7M x 7M x 3M is not a hole, it is a dam!.
It will be far cheaper if you hire a "Backhoe" tractor and it will be done in less than 1 hour.

Backhoe charges per hour. @4k to 6k Max.

In my DC hood, septic are no longer done by KYM, we hire Backhoe and they do a very clean and chap-chap job.
....He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion..

7M by 7M is about 20 ft by 20ft and they can do that for you at 7k per foot if you get serious digging guys, so for 3M (10 ft) that will cost you a total of about 70K or thereabout
