Advice on Sinking your Trampoline:
Most people are probably put off by the aesthetic's of a net but buy them because of the safety factor. Other people may not be able to go the extra of affording a net.
Digging a pit is a very good option, digging the pit yourself will also save on cost.
The advantages are it is safer than not having a net and you do not have the trampoline with or without the net in your eye line. You could even plant shrubs/flower border in front of it and hide it completely, making a garden feature out of a potential eye sore.
The hole needs to be approx two inches less than the height of the trampoline. This allows a gap to release the trapped air that is pushed downwards whilst jumping.
If you live in a wet area and are unsure of the soil being firm enough we recommend seeking advice from a friendly builder/gardner. If you have a high water table you may want to dig a trench across the diameter of the trampoline, say 1ft x 1ft and fill with pea shingle or the like.
