Hydrovac Trucks For Sale
A hydrovac truck uses pressurized water and a high-airflow vacuum to excavate soil without mechanical digging, making it the standard tool for safe digging around buried utilities.
Browse Hydrovac TrucksVacuum Trucks For Sale
A vacuum truck carries a tank and vacuum pump to collect and transport liquids, slurries or dry material, and is used across industrial cleaning, septic and municipal work.
Browse Vacuum TrucksCombo Sewer Trucks For Sale
A combination sewer truck pairs a high-pressure water jetter with a vacuum system so one unit can both clean and evacuate sewer lines and catch basins.
Browse Combination Sewer TrucksAir Vacuum Excavators For Sale
An air excavator uses compressed air rather than water to break up soil, keeping the spoil dry and reusable as backfill — preferred in cold climates and around sensitive utilities.

Buying a hydrovac or vacuum truck: common questions
Straight answers to what buyers and sellers ask us most.
What is the difference between a hydrovac truck and a vacuum truck?
A hydrovac truck combines pressurized water with a high-airflow vacuum to excavate soil without mechanical digging, which is why it is the standard tool for safe digging around buried utilities. A vacuum truck is the broader category: a tank and a vacuum pump used to collect and haul liquids, slurries or dry material for industrial cleaning, septic and municipal work. Every hydrovac is a vacuum truck; most vacuum trucks are not hydrovacs.
What does a used hydrovac truck cost?
Price is driven by chassis year and mileage, blower and engine hours, debris tank and water capacity, boom configuration, and whether the unit is winterized. Because those combinations vary so widely, a single average figure is misleading. Compare live inventory instead: browse the current listings, sort by price, and filter by year and engine hours to see what comparable trucks are actually being asked for right now.
How do I check the condition of a used vac truck before buying?
Read engine hours and blower hours separately from chassis mileage — a truck with low miles can still have a heavily worked vacuum system. Ask for blower and water pump rebuild records, current DOT and annual inspection status, tank thickness or ultrasonic readings, boom and hose condition, and the VIN so you can run your own history check. Always arrange an in-person or third-party inspection before sending money.
Does Vac4Sale sell parts, pumps or hoses?
No. Vac4Sale lists complete units only: hydrovac trucks, vacuum trucks, combination sewer trucks, air excavators, water and jetter trucks, septic pumpers, soft track units, and hydrovac and vacuum trailers. Parts, pumps, hoses and tooling are handled by our sister publication Hydrovac News rather than here.
How much does it cost to list a truck for sale?
A Standard listing is free. It carries 20 photos, runs 30 days and renews in one click, and no card is asked for. A Featured listing, which is promoted above organic results on browse and hub pages, is $150 weekly or $500 monthly, runs until you cancel it, and raises the gallery to 60 photos while adding 3 walkaround videos and 5 spec sheets. Neither tier takes a commission on the sale. Listings can also be syndicated to our sister publication Hydrovac News, which keeps its own copy, so the same truck reaches both audiences.
Where are the trucks located, and can I buy across the border?
Sellers list from across the United States and Canada, and you can filter by state or province to find equipment near you. Cross-border purchases are common in this market but add customs paperwork, duty and possible emissions or safety compliance steps, so confirm those requirements with the seller and your broker before committing.
