Wondering what an Air Vac Operator does?
An Air Vac Operator operates a unit that uses compressed air to break up the earths soil, which is then vacuumed up into the trucks holding unit; and when the holding unit is full, it is then unloaded onsite, or wherever the soil needs to go. No water, No slurry.
