    Hello...we re-applied for a grant again, and we still dont know for sure. majority wants a vaccum, and some want a pumper/tanker. Both would be great. I know we can do both...but, without the grant....we are very limited. Thanks for asking, hope things are well with you and stay safe....

    Hello, sorry it took me so long to answer back, we are getting a 3,600 gal vaccum tanker. It should be here in the end of March. We did not get a grant either. We did build one from scratch. We bought an International Chassis, and had a private tank maker build us a tank. Total cost was $138,000, that included lights and all the neccesities that we are going to put on. We saved around $100,000 by doing so. Hope things are going well with you, talk to you soon....
