Catch Basin Cleaning in Tucson, AZ

Vacuum cleanout of catch basins, drop inlets, and storm sumps. Tucson, Arizona's construction, utilities, municipal, telecommunications sector relies on catch basin cleaning for safe, code-compliant work around the area's 542,629-resident metro and dense underground utility footprint.

  • Documented removal volumes support SWPPP and MS4 reporting
  • Inexpensive at scale — typical municipal contracts cover hundreds of basins per day

  • Inspections during cleanout flag damaged grates, broken sumps, or root intrusion
