Trenchless Technology’s 2025 Vacuum Excavator Spec Guide
The horizontal directional drilling (HDD) industry has long-known the benefits of using vacuum excavators to transport drilling slurry.
Couple that with a commitment by the entire underground infrastructure construction sector to reduce
damages resulting from utility strikes, and these pieces of equipment are ubiquitous on projects. This equipment is available with hydro or air excavation capabilities — and in some instances both — and in towable trailer-mounted or a variety of truck chassis-mounted varieties.
In this sector, there really is a vacuum excavator for every size HDD project. It’s important that a contractor makes the right decisions when selecting their new piece of equipment.
To help make that job a little bit easier, we invited all of the major vacuum excavator manufacturers to submit their latest offerings — we thank those who did!

Happy shopping!
