Water carts are used across Australia for a variety of reasons. To start, water trucks are used for dust suppression and road watering on road construction and infrastructure projects. Adding to this, they are used to transport portable water and other liquids for agricultural purposes and fire fighting.

Many water cart hire suppliers will choose to use an Australian water cart brand for all of their water cart and tanker vehicles. Because of this, there is an extremely high calibre of Australian water truck brands, using the latest technology to innovate solutions for the Australian environment.
