What is a Honey Wagon?
A honey wagon is a system designed to pump out fluids into a holding tank or a tote. The system consists of a waste tank, your choice of diaphragm pump, hoses, and mounting options. Honey wagons can handle a variety of fluids, including: septic waste , RV grey & black water, bilge waste and waste oil, waste hydraulic oil, waste vegetable oil (WVO) and more. They are typically sold to campgrounds, government agencies like the military, Department of Parks and Recreation, Wastewater treatment facilities, marinas, construction companies and many other industrial applications.
Should You Build Your Own Honey Wagon?
Customers commonly ask us whether they could build their own honey wagon. The short answer is of course, yes. However, we strongly suggest you go with a reputable honey wagon manufacturer instead. Some of the benefits are:
1. Extensive Experience
Firstly, from a sales point of view Wastecorp designs and manufactures them and we are in business to sell them. Decades of experience bring unmatched expertise, quality and innovation to every product.
2. Up-to-date On Safety Procedures
Moreover, customers must keep in mind that when you haul hundreds or even thousands of pounds of waste, the proper safety precautions must be taken. For example, there is heavy surge in the tank when braking. This is especially dangerous in icy conditions where it can cause your vehicle to slide into oncoming traffic. As a result, your trailer should be equipped with electric brakes and a break-away trailer switch to safely come to a complete stop.
3. Discounted Pricing
As a trusted manufacturer, Wastecorp has the ability to negotiate discounted pricing on all the proper components you need to safely haul your honey wagon. On the other hand, it would be more costly to buy the individual parts yourself at retail price. In addition to buying parts, you would also need to assemble it all together. Either way, you should expect to spend thousands of dollars for a new pump out system. Therefore, to save some time and money, you should buy a honey wagon through a brand you trust.
