If you need to clear away debris from a pipeline or drain, then vacuum excavator hire might be the solution. These powerful truck-mounted machines make short work of dirt and debris in tight areas and can ensure your underground assets are clear and free from any potential damage.
While vacuum excavators obviously utilise suction to clear debris, they also use high pressure water to create and excavate holes and clear debris. Shooting bursts of pressurised water into pipes and drains can easily clear out debris, bird nests and dirt that is causing blockages and potentially causing damage.
Of course, a lot of the benefit of a vacuum excavator is the ability to vacuum out dirt and debris into a spoil tank to ensure the work area and surroundings stay clean and sanitised. By utilising advanced vacuum technologies, you can quickly and safely remove debris, water, sewerage and dirt from the work area.
They're a particularly good option when you need to vacuum or excavate in tight access areas, where it could be a safety hazard for an employee to get into. Whether it's a sewerage pipe that is overflowing, or a large pothole that needs to be drained before it can be filled in, vacuum excavator hire provides a quick, efficient solution to your needs.
Vacuum excavators will come with a spoil tank. This acts as the storage for anything you vacuum up. This will generally be a requirement for a lot of work, and you can rest assured knowing these will be kept clean and sanitised between projects.
Like with a lot of heavy machinery hire, vacuum excavators are available with wet and dry hire options from most companies. Wet hire is a fantastic option if you're short-staffed or you don't have the training needed to operate the machine. Wet hire means you'll be hiring the excavator as well as a trained operator at the same time.
They will be able to cover all aspects of the job to ensure it's done on time and to the highest quality. Or, if you just need to hire a vacuum excavator to cover a gap in your machinery temporarily, dry hire will probably be the right choice for you. Dry hire is usually cheaper than wet hire, so make sure you consider the costs before you decide which option is right for you.
Because they're usually truck-mounted, you generally won't need to consider how to arrange delivery for the machine. Simply go to your local hire company and drive the truck to your worksite, or wait for your wet hire excavator to arrive if that's what you've chosen.
