Specialist Hire Business with a Low-Input Solar-Powered Fleet of Vac Skips

Hire/Rent | Business for Sale | Toowoomba City

Acquire VacSkip Australia for $400,000 WIWO, including a ten-unit fleet with an estimated plant and equipment value of $250,000. Its standalone solar-powered units hold and dry vacuum excavation spoil on site, offering an established hire or industrial services operator a specialist product to take to its existing customers.

Ten-unit fleet included: Plant and equipment has an estimated value of $250,000. The range spans standard and heated 3.5 kL models and a compact 1 kL model.

Distinctive specialist product: Add purpose-designed equipment for holding and drying vacuum excavation spoil to your hire range, with a defined application at industrial and contamination-sensitive sites.

Solar-powered operation: Standalone units use solar energy for drying and solar panels and batteries to power the controls, supporting use where mains power may be limited.

Professional on-site spoil management: A purpose-built vessel and automated weather cover give contractors a dedicated way to hold and dry captured spoil at the worksite.

Minimal routine intervention: The retractable cover responds to rain automatically, reducing the need for an operator to attend solely to close the cover and keep additional water out.

Low equipment running costs: Solar drying and self-contained solar-powered controls support low routine energy costs.

Opportunity for further hire work: Introduce VacSkip alongside existing equipment hire, environmental services or vacuum excavation work and seek repeat deployments through customers your business already serves.


VacSkip Australia is offered for sale at $400,000 WIWO with a ten-unit fleet and a specialist equipment rental business. For an operator already serving industrial worksites, the acquisition offers a developed product to add to its range and physical equipment with which to pursue further hire work.

The included plant and equipment has an estimated value of $250,000. Seven standard units, two heated units and one compact unit span 3.5 kL standard and heated models and a 1 kL compact model.

The product addresses the handling of vacuum excavation spoil, particularly where contamination is present or suspected. Excavation produces a slurry of water and soil that needs to be held while it dries. VacSkip combines a purpose-built vessel with an automated cover, giving contractors a professional on-site solution for that task.

VacSkip's standalone solar-powered units dry spoil on site with minimal routine operator intervention. Automated rain covers protect the contents without someone needing to attend each time the weather changes.

An equipment hire business could add VacSkip to its existing range, using its sales, servicing and deployment capability to support the equipment. Environmental services operators could offer it alongside contaminated-site work. Vacuum excavation and civil contractors could introduce it to customers whose projects generate spoil requiring on-site holding and drying.

The next owner's opportunity is to seek wider use of the fleet through those customer relationships and pursue repeat hire deployments. Enquire about acquiring VacSkip Australia, its specialist product offering and the included ten-unit fleet.
