Water Truck for Rent in Boston, MA

Get a water truck for your Boston jobsite: one request reaches the rental companies covering Massachusetts, with no booking fees.

Boston's Utility construction (National Grid/Eversource gas), Municipal sewer & water (MWRA), and deep foundation & tunnel construction employers generate steady, short-term work that often calls for a rented water truck.

Boston's post-Big-Dig underground is a maze of tunnels, MBTA lines and utilities packed under filled land, so gas main replacement and foundation work demand precise hydrovac excavation to avoid strikes. National Grid and Eversource leak-prone cast-iron gas mains keep potholing crews busy across the region.

About renting a water truck

A water truck is a tanker-bodied vehicle that hauls and sprays non-potable water on jobsites for dust control, soil compaction, and general water supply. Unlike a vacuum truck, it dispenses water rather than removing liquid, sludge, or debris.

Water / tank capacity
500-5,000 gallons (larger tandem and tri-axle tanks available)
Spray system
Rear and side spray heads plus rear cannon, roughly 250-500 GPM pump output
Fill and dump
2"-4" fill connections with gravity or pump-assisted discharge
Chassis
Single-axle to tri-axle truck; CDL often required on larger units
