Vacuum Truck in Shavertown FAQ
What does a vacuum truck do?
A vacuum truck suctions liquids, sludge, slurry, or loose solids into an onboard tank for cleanup and transport to disposal. It is used across industrial, municipal, and oilfield work for tank cleaning, sludge removal, spill response, and waste hauling.
What is the difference between a vacuum truck and a combo truck?
A standard vacuum truck only suctions material. A combination (combo) truck adds a high-pressure water jetting system, so it can both clean a sewer or pipe and vacuum out the debris in one visit.
