Vacuum Truck Rentals, headquartered in Richland, MS, has converted its entire fleet of vacuum and jetting rental units to Vacall brand AllJetVac, AllExcavate, AllJet and AllVac machines. Vacall machines are designed, manufactured, sold and supported by Gradall Industries, Inc., in New Philadelphia, OH. Gradall is wholly owned by the Alamo Group.
Vacuum Truck Rentals has one of the largest fleets of specialty equipment in the U.S. including trailers, tankers, roll-offs, dump trucks and jetters. About one-third of its 900 rental machines are vacuum and jetting machines, which formerly were products from a major competitor, but now have been replaced by Vacall machines.
"Vacall represents high-efficiency, simplistic operation and unmatched reliability," said B.T. Steadman, co-founder and co-managing partner of Vacuum Truck Rentals. "They are a really good partner, helping us to facilitate our growth. They treat us like a customer."
Vacuum Truck Rentals is a key supplier for contractors serving governments as well as private industry. Founded in 2001, the company grew out of an environmental service contractor business, Vacuum Truck Services, which was founded in 1998. As the business continued to grow, a sister company, Vacuum Truck Sales & Service, was founded in 2006 and now sells new and used Vacalls and other machines in six states.
"In the fast-moving world of vac trucks, our customers need a partner that's committed to delivering the highest quality products, parts and service," continued Steadman. "Our field experience and dedication make us a leader in the industry with the best product lines, including Vacall."
"Vacuum Truck Rentals became one of the nation's top rental companies by focusing on customer needs and meeting those needs with top-flight equipment as well as responsive parts and service support," said Tod Ebetino, director of Vacall products for Gradall Industries.
"We are proud to have our products in the Vacuum Truck Rentals fleet," said Mike Popovich, president of Gradall. "They make sure our Vacall machines are available and operating profitably for contractors in many, many states. We appreciate VTR's loyalty, and we are pleased to be a part of their continuing growth plan.
