First, we contact Nebraska or Iowa’s Diggers Hotline to mark the area for underground wires. Please note that they will not mark invisible fences or underground sprinkler or lighting systems. Please make our installers aware of items like that upon installation. Backyard Playworld is not responsible for damage to any items not marked by Nebraska or Iowa’s Diggers Hotline.

Once your property has been marked, we will come and install your anchor system. We do not remove the spoilage (dirt removed for anchor system) but we can place it neatly around a tree-line in your yard. If you have no good place for it, you can leave the installers with lawn and garden bags. They can use those, for a nice, neat, hassle free job. Once the anchor system has had 3-7 days to properly set, we will come back and assemble your goal and attach it to the anchor system.
