Frequently Asked Questions
A gully tanker (also referred to as a gully emptier) is a type of specialised vehicle used for the purpose of cleaning and maintaining drainage systems, particularly gullies. Gullies are openings or inlets found along roadways or in urban areas that are designed to collect rainwater and prevent flooding by channeling water into the sewer system or other drainage systems. Over time, debris, dirt, and other materials can accumulate in these gullies, potentially causing blockages and reducing their effectiveness.
To address this issue, gully tankers are equipped with large tanks capable of holding significant amounts of water. These vehicles use powerful vacuum systems to suck up the accumulated debris and water from the gullies. Once the debris-laden water is collected, it is stored in the tanker’s tank. After completing the cleaning process, the tanker typically transports the collected material to a treatment facility or disposal site.
Gully tankers play a crucial role in maintaining proper drainage systems in urban areas, helping to prevent flooding and ensuring the smooth flow of rainwater and wastewater.
The Gully tanker is a very versatile machine that is designed to handle various types of waste that accumulate in drainage systems, culverts, and gullies. It serves as a crucial line of defense against blockages that could otherwise lead to flooding and pose a threat to public health and the environment.
They can handle a diverse range of waste materials such as:
- Sewage and Wastewater
- Silt and Sediment
- Debris and Garbage
- Sand and Gravel
- Tree Roots and Vegetation
Using gully tankers helps prevent clogs, reduce the risk of flooding, and improve the overall functionality of drainage systems. It also contributes to maintaining public health and preventing environmental pollution.
