Üsküdar Car Park Vacuum Truck

We vacuum the water out first, and as the level drops the sludge at the bottom becomes visible. The greasy layer stuck to the grate pits and the channel walls is loosened with high-pressure water jetting and collected in the same vehicle. The waste we loosen and remove is carried in a closed tank to an authorised discharge point, so it does not end up in the street with the rainwater. If the entrance is low or the ramp is narrow, we come with a mini vacuum truck instead of the combination truck.

On Üsküdar's steep, narrow streets, many buildings cannot be reached with a large vehicle, and some addresses are reached through streets with steps. That is why we keep our equipment portable and work with a mini vacuum truck at car parks with a narrow entrance. If water does not drain from the basement car park of a building where an elderly couple lives after rain, we first look at where the vehicle can stop.

In coastal districts such as Kandilli and Çengelköy, basements sit close to sea level, so the fall of the line is limited, water runs slowly and sediment builds up easily. When weekend crowds send greasy waste into the grates of a closed car park at a seafront café or restaurant, water can collect again in the same corner after the first pump-out. At addresses like these, putting periodic cleaning of the grates and the drainage sump on a schedule reduces the work.
