We’re looking to plant some bushes in our backyard, some of which will be along our north fence. Just wondering if that area is safe to dig.

user_7nudma Before digging in your backyard, it's essential to submit an underground utilities locate request to ensure safety. This request will prompt local utility companies to mark where their lines are buried using flags or spray paint. You are also responsible for marking any private lines, such as sprinkler systems or electric fences. It's crucial to wait for these markings before proceeding with any digging to avoid damaging utility lines. For more information, search for Call Before You Dig in your area to find services that will help you.
