Valve Maintenance Trailers
Our Valve Maintenance Trailers, designed to carry the highly versatile ERV-750, and in the case of the Grand LX the powerful TM-7 SD Plus, are the industry standard for a completely upgradable, versatile platform designed to transport all the valve maintenance and vacuum tools needed in the field. Built to withstand the rigors of years of service, it’s the perfect solution for municipalities or contractors looking for a rugged, long lasting self contained system.
Wachs VMT Valve Maintenance Trailers offer the advantage of any medium duty pickup truck being able to tow it, so there is no need to have a fleet vehicle exclusive to the task. This is often preferred by small to mid-size municipalities with limited fleet units. You can specify exactly the model and configuration that that fits your budget and your workflow.
