The Role of Vacuum Trucks in Waste Management

Vacuum trucks play a crucial role in industrial waste management solutions. The vacuum systems can collect liquid and solid waste, including contaminated water from hydro blasting cleanup. The truck then ships the waste off-site for safe disposal. At Cactus Environmental Services, we provide comprehensive cleanup solutions for industrial sites and waste removal for commercial and industrial operations, and we remove the contamination with our fleet of certified vacuum trucks. Learn more about our services and how our team can assist with every element of hazardous waste cleaning in North Texas and the surrounding region.

The Types of Industrial Vacuum Trucks

Industrial vacuum trucks are specialty equipment designed to safely clean and remove both liquid and sludge contaminants, whether a spill is seeping across the ground or tanks and lines need to be emptied. Different types of industrial vacuum trucks can help with different waste management projects. Varieties include:

• Liquid vacuum trucks: These vehicles come equipped with a powerful vacuum hose to pick up liquids and pump them into the truck vessel. Professional cleaning and waste management services use them to carry and dispose of water, oil, septic tank liquids, waste from sand traps and large grease traps, and more. They offer general-purpose containment.
• Vacuum loaders: Built for use in environments with large amounts of dust and airborne contaminants, vacuum loaders use positive displacement blowers to excavate and pump waste into the truck vessel.
• Combination trucks: Combination trucks can pump up both wet and dry loads. This is ideal for clearing storm drains, ditches, and vessels that must be thoroughly emptied.
• High-powered vacuum tankers: For industrial vacuum operations that need extra strength, tankers are larger and can generate more vacuum force to hold large volumes of liquid or slurried waste.

Our team can assess your site and waste management needs to provide the right industrial vacuum truck and support for cleanup operations, routine waste management, and emergency cleanup needs.

Industries We Use Our Vacuum Trucks In

Cactus Environmental Services offers industrial vacuum truck manufacturing services for all commercial and industrial sectors in our service areas, including:

• Oilfield services: Our vacuum truck fleet can contain slurries, spills, and more during site cleanup projects or during field construction and site establishment.
• Industrial manufacturers: If you have a cleanup project in progress, our vacuum services can help. The trucks can contain chemicals, slurries of hydrojetted water with broken-down solids, and more. Vacuum trucks are commonly used at food processing facilities, chemical manufacturing plants, and farms.
• Plants that need environmental cleanup: Vacuum trucks can pick up and transport dirt slurries from potholing, building trenches, or contaminated soil. The trucks can also contain contaminated water from ongoing cleanup and containment operations.
• Construction: Our fleets can move, hold, or dispose of unwanted soil, chemical waste, and slurried or liquid waste from construction sites, demolitions, and large-scale projects.
• Large commercial facilities, hospitals, and campuses: Industrial vacuum services can efficiently store and remove waste cleared from sand traps, sewer lines, tanks, and more.

Used in combination with heated pressure washers and hydro jetting systems, our Hazmat containment and cleanup teams can clean chemical spills and contamination buildup at your facility before safely disposing of the wastewater and sludge according to environmental regulations.
