hsvhel: Have you asked them?
Odd place to have it from the pictures?
sbiddle: Answering that sort of question simply isn't possible with such limited information. It could easily be a figure well into the 4 digits or even 5 depending on the work required.
The only way to know if to wait for Chorus to come back to you with a price.
chevrolux: Why do you need to shift it? Simply so it isn't in the driveway? These pits can be in a driveway no problem. The lid height can be adjusted to make it level - might just need a lid extender if it has already been adjusted out fully. Lid extender is only around $100 mark.
Your biggest issue here will be dealing with the bureaucracy at Chorus to get an answer out of them.
