Trench Drains
Pumping, Cleaning, and Unclogging of Trench Drains
Ensure proper water flow and protect your infrastructure
Trench drains play a key role in managing stormwater on roads, parking lots, construction sites, and urban infrastructure. When they become clogged with sediment, debris, leaves, sludge, or ice, water flow is compromised, which can lead to pooling, erosion, and damage to surrounding surfaces. At Sanivac, we offer specialized trench drain pumping, cleaning, unclogging, and maintenance services tailored to the needs of municipalities, commercial and industrial sites, and road infrastructure. Our interventions restore efficient drainage and help prevent issues related to standing water.
Trench Drain Pumping
Eliminate standing water and liquid buildup
Over time, trench drains can retain standing water mixed with sludge and sediment. Sanivac performs trench drain pumping to efficiently remove these accumulations and clear drainage areas. This step is essential to reduce pressure on infrastructure, limit the risk of flooding, and prepare trench drains for thorough cleaning.
Deep Trench Drain Cleaning
Remove sediment and restore full drainage capacity
Trench drains naturally accumulate sand, gravel, leaves, road debris, and organic matter. Sanivac provides complete trench drain cleaning to remove these deposits and restore full flow capacity. Our specialized equipment allows for effective cleaning, even when buildup is compacted or difficult to access, ensuring optimal drainage during heavy rainfall or thawing periods.
Unclogging Blocked Trench Drains
Respond Quickly to Prevent Overflows
A blocked trench drain can quickly cause overflows and water accumulation on roadways or paved surfaces. Sanivac provides targeted trench drain unclogging to remove obstructions responsible for poor drainage. Our rapid interventions restore water flow and help reduce the risk of damage to roads, parking lots, and surrounding infrastructure.

Preventive Maintenance of Trench Drains
Prevent emergencies and extend the lifespan of infrastructure
Regular trench drain maintenance is essential to prevent sudden blockages and emergency interventions. Sanivac offers preventive maintenance programs that include periodic pumping, cleaning, and unclogging of trench drains. This proactive approach helps maintain efficient drainage, reduce repair-related costs, and protect infrastructure from premature wear.

Regular trench drain cleaning ensures efficient stormwater flow, prevents water accumulation on roads and parking lots, and helps avoid erosion or deterioration of surrounding surfaces. A clogged trench drain can quickly lead to overflows and damage to infrastructure.
Trench drains mainly accumulate sand, gravel, leaves, sludge, road debris, and sometimes ice. These materials reduce drainage capacity and hinder water evacuation, especially during heavy rainfall or thawing periods.
The frequency depends on the location and surrounding environment. In general, preventive maintenance is recommended before periods of heavy rainfall and before the spring thaw. In urban or high-traffic areas, more frequent maintenance may be required to maintain optimal drainage.
Cleaning focuses on removing accumulated sediment and debris to restore the trench drain’s full capacity. Unclogging, on the other hand, involves eliminating a specific obstruction that completely or partially blocks water flow. The two interventions are often complementary.
Yes. Sanivac offers specialized trench drain pumping, cleaning, and unclogging services for municipalities, roads, parking lots, construction sites, and public infrastructure. Our interventions are tailored to the technical requirements and constraints of municipal environments.
Trench drain maintenance requires specialized equipment and field expertise to intervene safely and efficiently, often near traffic or sensitive infrastructure. A specialized company ensures compliant work, prevents damage, and helps extend the lifespan of drainage structures.
