cleaning out a dry well

L A
10 years ago

has it put in about 2.5 years ago with a sewer cover. there is nothing going in there by rain water... and sand/dirt, my kids throwing pebbles in, etc.

I want to clean it out bc it looks like there's enough sediment on the bottom that its not draining as well as it did. (soil is pretty gravely, so drainage shouldn't be a problem)

what do you folks say the easiest way to do this would be?

the only think I can think of is taking the cover off, putting a ladder in, climbing down, and bringing up one bucket at a time. Sounds kinda like the opposite of fun.
