Project work tied to Philadelphia's municipal sewer & water (aging combined sewers), Utility construction (PECO/PGW gas), and Refining & petrochemical (Delaware River) tends to come in bursts, which is exactly when renting a hydrovac trailer beats owning one.
Philadelphia's aging combined-sewer system and one of the nation's oldest municipal water networks generate ongoing sewer-cleaning and CCTV support work for vacuum trucks. PGW gas main replacement across old brick rowhome neighborhoods relies on hydrovac potholing to expose cast-iron lines safely.
About renting a hydrovac trailer
A hydrovac trailer is a trailer-mounted hydro-excavation unit that uses pressurized water to break up soil and a vacuum to remove the slurry, towed behind a pickup or work truck. It offers a lower-cost, more portable entry into hydrovac work and reaches tight, confined, or off-road jobsites where a full hydrovac truck cannot maneuver.
