Bakırköy Car Park Vacuum Truck

You usually need a car park vacuum truck in Bakırköy when water in a basement or enclosed car park has not drained even after the rain has stopped. On low streets close to the coast, the stormwater channel can fill and push water back, and water running down the ramp can collect in hollows in the floor. Emptying the water is not enough on its own; the source of the blockage has to be cleared too.

First we look at the entrance, the slope of the ramp and the point where the water rises, and we talk through the cause with you on site. Then, while the vacuum of the combination truck sucks up the water, high-pressure water loosens the greasy sludge stuck in the grate pits and collects it. If the entrance is low or the ramp is narrow, we extend the hose from a safe point with a mini vacuum truck.

Why does water keep coming back in Bakırköy basement car parks?

In some blocks built in phases in Ataköy, the inner diameter of the cast-iron shared stacks has narrowed with rust and sediment. When water does not flow properly on this line, it can come back towards the car park entrance on the basement level. Around the Bakırköy market and the square, the drains of basement shops and ground-floor restaurants may be connected to the same line.

When the attendant of a building with basement parking sees water left at the foot of the ramp, they first check the grate cover and the entrance slope. In this situation, sending a photo on WhatsApp speeds up the decision. In the streets near the sea in Florya and Yeşilköy, once the grates fill with leaves and sand, pumping out the water alone is not enough.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do if water stays in the car park after rain in Bakırköy?

If the water does not drain even after the rain has eased, calling a vacuum truck is the right step. Do not pour in chemical drain openers, because they can react dangerously with the sludge in the channel and make it harder to find where the blockage is. It is enough to describe the entrance and the water level on WhatsApp or by phone.

Can the large vacuum truck get into the car park entrance?

If the entrance height and ramp slope allow it, a standard or combination truck works; if not, a mini vacuum truck is preferred. We park the vehicle at the nearest safe point to the ramp entrance. Keeping the road where the truck will pull up clear before the visit makes the job easier.

Where are the pumped-out water and sludge taken?

The water, sludge and greasy waste we pump out are collected in a closed tank and, depending on the type, taken to a licensed facility. You can ask where the waste goes during the visit, and we explain it openly. Having the grate and drainage well emptied before the rain can reduce the number of emergency calls during downpours.
