For construction and municipal work across Platte County, it is often the right tool for the job.
A hydrovac trailer is a skid- or trailer-mounted hydro excavation system that can be towed by a pickup and positioned where a full vacuum truck cannot fit.

Questions
Hydrovac Trailer in Dearborn FAQ
When should I use a hydrovac trailer instead of a truck?
Use a trailer when access is the constraint: tight lots, back yards, remote sites, or jobs too small to justify a full hydrovac truck. It performs the same non-destructive digging in a footprint a pickup can tow into place.
Can a hydrovac trailer do the same work as a hydrovac truck?
For most potholing and daylighting it does the same job using the same water-and-vacuum method. The difference is capacity: smaller water and debris tanks mean more offloads on high-volume excavation, where a truck is more efficient.
How much does a hydrovac trailer cost in Dearborn, MO?
Vacuum truck work is typically billed by the hour, and the rate varies with soil, site access, water and disposal needs, and how far the service provider travels. Around Dearborn, clay, loam and sandy loam ground influences how quickly the work goes and therefore the total. Service providers price your specific Dearborn job rather than a flat rate. Submit it through Vac Hotline and qualified hydrovac trailer crews near you send competing quotes.
