Straying from original hand mixing.... But hiring a pump is even easier, and
not that much more expensive.
A tip I discovered: Hire the pumping service BEFORE ordering the concrete. My
pumping guy had some sort of agreement with the local concrete Co., so he was
able to get the concrete at a discounted rate.... They then take
over coordinating as well, so one less thing to worry about.

Usually if you have the concrete delivered they will wait about an hour or
less (ask them for their waiting time) while you wheelbarrow it to the hole
and charge waiting time which is expensive after that time
Generally wait time is 10 minutes per yard...at least in FL and HI.
