Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydrovac excavation?

Hydrovac excavation is a non-destructive digging method that uses high-pressure water and powerful vacuum suction to safely break up and remove soil. The loosened soil and water mixture is vacuumed into a debris tank for disposal. This method allows crews to expose underground utilities, pipelines, and infrastructure with far less risk than traditional excavation methods.

When should hydrovac excavation be used?

Hydrovac excavation is ideal when digging near underground utilities, pipelines, fiber lines, or other sensitive infrastructure. It is commonly used for potholing and daylighting utilities, trenching for cables and conduits, stormwater system maintenance, and excavation in tight or hard-to-access spaces.

What does a vacuum truck do?

A vacuum truck uses powerful suction to remove liquids, sludge, sediment, and debris from tanks, ponds, storm drains, catch basins, and industrial systems. The collected materials are stored in a sealed tank and transported to an approved disposal or treatment facility.

What types of waste can vacuum trucks remove?

Vacuum trucks are capable of removing a wide range of materials, including:

Industrial sludge and wastewater
Sediment and debris from storm drains and basins
Liquids from tanks, pits, and sumps
Grease trap waste
Spill materials and contaminated water

Biolein ensures all waste is handled and disposed of according to EPA, OSHA, and local environmental regulations.

Can hydrovac excavation be performed in frozen ground?

Yes. Hydrovac excavation is one of the most effective ways to dig in frozen ground during Colorado winters. Heated water systems allow crews to break through frozen soil safely and efficiently, making it possible to continue excavation projects year-round.

How do vacuum trucks help prevent flooding?

Vacuum trucks help prevent flooding by removing sediment, debris, and blockages from storm drains, catch basins, culverts, and drainage systems. Regular maintenance helps maintain proper water flow and prevents stormwater systems from becoming clogged during heavy rainfall or spring runoff.

Is hydrovac excavation safer than traditional digging?

Yes. Hydrovac excavation significantly reduces the risk of damaging underground utilities because it uses water instead of mechanical force to break up soil. This makes it one of the safest excavation methods for working near buried infrastructure.

What industries benefit from hydrovac and vacuum truck services?

Hydrovac excavation and vacuum truck services are widely used by:

Construction and infrastructure companies
Municipal public works departments
Industrial and manufacturing facilities
Environmental remediation teams
Oil and gas operations

These services help maintain infrastructure, remove waste safely, and support environmental compliance.

Do you offer emergency vacuum truck services?

Yes. Biolein provides 24/7 emergency response services for spills, storm drain blockages, flooding risks, and hazardous material containment. Our team can quickly deploy vacuum trucks and hydrovac equipment to contain and remove materials safely.

How often should storm drains and catch basins be cleaned?

Storm drains and catch basins should typically be inspected and cleaned at least once per year, though high-traffic areas, industrial sites, and municipalities may require more frequent maintenance. Regular cleanouts help prevent flooding, sediment buildup, and environmental contamination.
