Vacuum Loading & Material Recovery
High-capacity vacuum loading for sludge, slurry and wet or dry material recovery.

Frequently asked questions
Is vacuum loading the same as hydro excavation?+
No. Hydro excavation digs and exposes ground using water and vacuum. Vacuum loading recovers and loads existing material such as sludge, slurry or spoil. Both use vacuum equipment but for different purposes.
Can you recover material from pits and tanks?+
Yes, vacuum loading supports pit, sump and tank cleaning where safe access and site controls allow.

Hydro excavation compared with vacuum excavation
The two terms are often used as though they mean the same thing. In practice vacuum excavation describes the removal method and hydro excavation describes the cutting medium. Understanding the difference makes it easier to specify the right unit.
