Sewer and drain cleaning trucks

Drain & sewer cleaning

High pressure water jetting clears blockages, debris and build-up, while powerful vacuum recovery removes the waste so drainage and sewer networks stay clear and free flowing.

Hydro excavation

Combination units pair water jetting with vacuum loading so crews can safely expose assets and excavate without mechanical digging, with one truck covering both tasks.

Drain and sewer cleaning trucks in our range

CAP COMBI 2600 CC Drain Cleaner 6x4

This unit is designed for performance and ease of use, with an 8m³ tank that is ideal for hydro excavation and drain cleaning.

A combination drain and sewer cleaning truck that pairs high pressure water jetting with powerful vacuum recovery to clear, clean and maintain drainage and sewer networks.

Liquid waste recovery

Uses its high vacuum performance to draw liquid waste, sludge and slurry directly into the onboard tank for safe containment and transport to disposal.

1″ drain cleaning

1″ drain cleaning from the top mounted hose reel with 180m of 1″ sewer hose. 255 degree boom rotation allows easy entry to tight access points when cleaning sewers or drainage networks.

6″ hydro excavation

With 30m of hydro excavation hose and a 255 degree rotational vacuum hose boom, hydro excavation can be completed at a distance from the unit, with access to tight locations.

CAP COMBI 2600 CL 6x4

A highly versatile industrial vacuum combination truck that combines high vacuum performance, drain cleaning, hydro excavation and wet/dry vacuum capability.

1″ drain cleaning

1″ drain cleaning from the top mounted hose reel with 180m of 1″ sewer hose. 270 degree boom rotation allows easy entry to tight access points when cleaning sewers or drainage networks.

6″ hydro excavation

With 80m of 1/2″ hose and 270mm boom extension, hydro excavation can be completed at a distance from the unit. The malleable vacuum hose means unusual locations can be easily accessed.

Pit & litter trap cleaning

Uses its high vacuum performance and wet/dry capability to quickly remove silt, sludge and litter from pits and gross pollutant traps, keeping stormwater and drainage networks clear and free flowing.

CAP COMBI 3200 CL Wet Industrial 8x4

Purpose built for large diameter drain/sewer cleaning, hydro excavation and high productivity liquid waste removal.

Large diameter drain/sewer cleaning

Combines high vacuum airflow with a 6″ vacuum hose and extended boom reach to efficiently clear silt, debris and blockages from large diameter drains and sewers.

6″ hydro excavation

Uses a high powered HIBON 822 XL blower with 5,250 m³/hr (3,090 cfm), making light work of 6″ hydro excavation and non-destructive digging applications.

Wet industrial vacuum recovery

Ideal for cleaning dense tanks including septic waste, digestors and processing systems, made easy by the unit’s high payload and highly efficient vacuum.

FAQs on sewer and drain cleaning trucks

View FAQs
These vehicles are specifically designed to keep our sewers and stormwater drains functioning optimally by removing debris, blockages, and build-up.
Sewer vacuum trucks serve two main purposes: clearing blockages and conducting regular cleaning in sewers and stormwater drain networks.
Sewer vacuum trucks are the only method for cleaning sewers and wastewater management in developed Western countries. They’re a more effective, efficient and pleasant solution.
Regular maintenance using sewer vacuum trucks is crucial in preventing blockages and backups. These trucks efficiently remove build-ups of various materials like silt, grease, and fat.
Councils typically operate 2 and 3-axle sewer cleaning units though efficiency and manoeuvrability requirements can differ from council to council.
Their water tanks can vary from 3,100 to 6,000 litres, while vacuum tanks range from 4,000 to 8,000 litres.
Larger trucks can hold more water for cleaning and wastewater and require fewer trips to disposal sites. This means less downtime and more continuous cleaning.
Many different types of sewer vacuum trucks can significantly alter the productivity depending on the application.
The highest efficiency pumps and drive systems can lower the cost of cleaning by up to 50%, and the vacuum hose reel with combined boom provides a significantly larger operational area.
Deploying high-efficiency nozzles suited to the specific task can lead to up to 80% improvement in productivity, reducing time, water, and fuel requirements.
