Why is a Vacuum Truck Required for Soft Digging?
The vacuum truck provides the second half of the hydro excavation process by sucking up that slurry created by the jets. With each bit of soil and rock being removed as soon as it comes loose from the ground, there’s little chance of a collapse and the digging process goes much faster than with traditional excavation. There’s also no need to pile dirt in your driveway or on your lawn as it’s removed from the ground. When there’s a need to clean out a tank or drainage basin with this technology, the debris from the blockages is sucked out with the vacuum truck so it can’t resettle to form new clogs in the future.
