What Is Sludge Hauling?
Sludge is the byproduct of wastewater treatment. It contains solids, organic matter, and sometimes hazardous materials. If not handled properly, sludge can contaminate soil and water sources.
Sludge hauling involves pumping, transporting, and disposing of this material at approved facilities. It requires specialized equipment and strict compliance with environmental regulations.
Types of Sludge We Handle
- Primary Sludge: Settled solids from primary treatment.
- Secondary Sludge: Biological solids from secondary treatment.

Each type requires different handling and disposal methods. Our team is trained for all categories.
