VAC Group’s Patented Soil Transfer System
Australia’s Leading Soil Reuse and Removal, and Spoil Disposal System
Complete, Cost Effective, On-site Solutions
The vacuum excavation process makes use of pressurised water to break apart soil and debris converting it into a slurry that is then vacuumed away. The spoil from this method is a classified liquid waste and can cost significantly more for disposal than solid refuse waste due to strict EPA controls and limited disposal sites. VAC Group understood the Australia-wide need to address this and developed our own cost saving soil transfer alternative.

A Sustainable On-site Soil Reuse and Removal Solution
How It Works
With over fifteen years spent on the technology development, the VAC Group soil transfer system is unlike any other on the market, receiving both national and world-wide recognition. The device is fully portable and can be housed on or close to construction project sites. This ability to retain a proximity to the non-destructive excavation work saves projects on both the time and logistical costs normally associated with transporting waste off-site to a spoil disposal depot.
