Roll-Off Vacuum Tank for Rent in San Francisco, CA

Need a roll-off vacuum tank in San Francisco? Submit one request and we connect you with rental companies serving the San Francisco, CA 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.

Local operators in San Francisco, California working in utility construction, municipal sewer/water (combined system), and seismic retrofit use rentals to add capacity for a specific job and return it when the work is done.

San Francisco operates a rare combined sewer system and dense underground utility grid, so hydrovac potholing is essential before any street cut in its congested rights-of-way. Seismic retrofit and foundation work on fill soils near the bay push demand for careful non-destructive excavation around aging infrastructure.

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

Common jobs for a roll-off vacuum tank in San Francisco

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.
