Roll-Off Vacuum Tank for Rent in New York City, NY

Need a roll-off vacuum tank in New York City? Submit one request and we connect you with rental companies serving the New York City, NY area.

This is equipment rental

You rent the equipment and run the job with your own crew, supplying an operator where the equipment needs one (some rental companies can include one, or handle hauling). Vac4Rent does not arrange crews to perform the work for you.

The mix of Utility construction (Con Edison gas/electric), Municipal sewer & water (DEP), and Subway/MTA infrastructure in New York City, New York means a roll-off vacuum tank is often needed for a single project rather than year-round ownership.

New York City's dense grid of century-old buried gas, steam, water and electric lines beneath narrow streets makes non-destructive hydrovac daylighting essential before any Con Edison or DEP excavation. Constant subway, foundation and utility work in tight urban rights-of-way drives steady demand for compact, sound-attenuated vac units.

About renting a roll-off vacuum tank

A roll-off vacuum tank, also called a vacuum box or vac box, is a sealed, vacuum-rated steel container that a vacuum or hydrovac truck discharges into on site. When it is full, a roll-off truck hauls the sealed tank away to a treatment or disposal facility, so the vacuum truck stays on the job instead of driving to the dump.

Capacity
20-25 cubic yards, with 30 cubic yard units also offered
Liquid volume
About 5,000 gallons of rated volume at 25 cubic yards; road weight limits, not volume, usually govern how full a liquid load runs
Construction
1/4 inch A36 steel plate, welded and vacuum rated
Inlet and outlet
8 inch flanged ports for vacuum loading and offloading

Hydro excavation spoils

Holding the wet slurry a hydrovac truck produces while daylighting and potholing, so the hydrovac keeps digging instead of running its own loads to a disposal site.

Tank and vessel cleaning sludge

Containing heavy sludge, solids, and residual product pulled out of storage tanks, sumps, separators, and process vessels during industrial cleaning.

Refinery and plant turnarounds

Staging several sealed containers during a shutdown so multiple vacuum crews can offload continuously without queuing for a single truck or disposal run.

Drilling mud and cuttings

Collecting mud, cuttings, and wash water on drilling and boring work where the material has to leave the site in a closed, liquid-tight container.
