What Is a Vac Truck?
A vac truck (vacuum truck) is a specialized vehicle equipped with a high-powered vacuum pump and debris tank. It can safely suction and transport liquids, slurries, sludge, and dry materials. Many units are also fitted with hydro-excavation features, using high-pressure water for precise, non-destructive digging.
Key Components
Vacuum pump: Generates powerful suction
Debris tank: Stores extracted material securely
Suction hose: Accesses tight or confined areas
Water pump: Used for hydro excavation and washing
Boom: Extends reach for trenching and service locating
