This 2006 Sterling LT8513 is a used sewer truck — sometimes called a vacuum truck or jetter truck — designed for municipal and industrial sewer cleaning, drain maintenance, and liquid waste removal. Sterling was a commercial truck manufacturer known for producing heavy-duty vocational and work vehicles across a range of utility and infrastructure applications, and this tandem-axle unit represents a well-specified example of that output.
Power comes from a CAT diesel engine paired with an automatic transmission, providing the muscle and ease of operation expected in demanding utility work. The chassis rides on a Hendrickson suspension and rolls on aluminum wheels shod with 11R22.5 tires, a configuration suited to the weight demands of a fully loaded vacuum truck in regular service. The tandem-axle layout contributes to the load-carrying stability and legal weight distribution required for hauling substantial liquid volumes on public roads.
The sewer body is a Vactor 2100, model 2112-16 — one of the most widely recognized names in the sewer cleaning equipment industry. It is equipped with an 8-foot telescoping boom operated by joystick controls, offering precise positioning when deploying the hose into manholes or access points. The onboard tank holds 1,500 gallons, giving the unit meaningful capacity for liquid waste collection before requiring a return to a disposal site. Included with the truck is 500 feet of 1-inch rodder hose, which is used for high-pressure water jetting to clear blockages and debris from sewer lines.
The seller reports that the truck runs well. It is located in Georgia, USA, and is offered at $72,500.
