Vacuum Excavation Truck Hire
Hydro Vacuum Excavation Truck Rental Perth

- Mine-Spec Compliant: Fully equipped safety features for Tier 1 civil and mining sites.
- High Capacity Storage: 946L spoil tank for longer digging times between disposal.
- Self-Contained Station: Integrated toolboxes carry all hoses and lances on-board.
Description
Our excavation vacuum truck hire fleet features the robust Isuzu FRR XLWB (Extra Long Wheel Base) truck, custom-fitted with a skid-mounted Vermeer VX30-250 vacuum unit. This configuration is the ultimate solution for contractors in Perth who require a fully self-contained hydro vacuum excavation system. Unlike trailer units, these mini Vac Trucks offer significant storage space for all your associated tooling, traffic management gear, and extension hoses, making them a “mobile digging station” capable of tackling complex utility exposures and slot trenching tasks with maximum efficiency.
Designed specifically for hydro vacuum excavation operations, these trucks utilise high-pressure water to safely loosen soil and a powerful 31 HP diesel engine to generate the suction needed to remove the spoil instantly. This vac truck rental option is ideal for protecting underground assets such as fibre optics, gas mains, and power lines from accidental damage. The truck’s tipper body design allows for easy disposal of the slurry, while the extra-long wheelbase ensures a stable platform for the vacuum unit, even when fully loaded. Whether you are working on a congested urban street or a remote mining site, our mini Vac Trucks deliver the reliability and safety your project demands.

1. How quickly can I get equipment delivered to my job site?
We manage our own dedicated transport fleet, allowing us to offer flexible, fast turnaround times. In many cases across metropolitan Perth, we can arrange same-day delivery. We also schedule early morning drop-offs so your crew can hit the ground running at first light. Contact our team on 1300 222 558 to confirm immediate machinery availability.
2. Why should I choose dry hire over wet hire for my project?
Dry hire gives you total control over your project timeline, site safety, and budget. You operate the machinery using your own qualified team without paying high hourly rates for outsourced operators. Miniquip specialises exclusively in dry hire, providing late-model, workshop-tested equipment on flexible daily, weekly, or long-term rates.
3. What happens if I need to extend my hire period or return early?
We understand civil and construction project timelines change due to weather or scope shifts. Extending your hire is as simple as calling or emailing our team before your scheduled completion date. If your project finishes early, simply contact us to arrange prompt site pickup or yard return.
4. How do I book machinery, and what information do I need to provide?
Booking is straightforward. You can request a quote online or speak directly with our Perth booking team on 1300 222 558. All we need is your site location, preferred delivery date and time, expected hire duration, and machinery requirements. We will provide an itemised, competitive quote with no hidden extras.
