About HV Excavators Ltd
Founded in 2023, HV Excavators started with a simple idea: to provide the ideal solution for excavation around live utilities or in areas where traditional methods aren’t suitable, such as tight, limited, or high-risk spaces.
In a short time, we’ve grown from a small team with big ambitions into a trusted name.
Suction Excavation (also known as vacuum excavation or vac-ex) is a method of non-destructive digging. It uses strong air suction to ‘hose’ earth, debris, or other materials into a storage container within the vac-ex truck. As one of our HGV Drivers, you’ll drive the vac-ex truck to site and learn to operate it.
If you’re a Class 2 HGV Driver looking for something more than just driving, with real training and a long-term future, apply today.
