The adoption of new machinery such as sewage cleaners, drain management machines, and other required equipment is rising with increasing urbanization.

In July 2023, the Gatesville City Council in the US (Texas) announced its approval for the purchase of a trailer-mounted sewer machine worth US$ 87,642.64. Such procurements and initiatives have been pushing the adoption of sewer and drain cleaning services across the US, fueling the US sewer and drain cleaning services market growth.

A poorly maintained sewage infrastructure could negatively impact individuals' quality of health and wellness.

The main object of the project is to reduce sewage overflows into Lake St. Clair, and proper maintenance of drinking water service lines in several communities. The existing water systems across the US are grappling with the challenges posed by aging pipelines, treatment plants, and distribution networks, which are boosting the demand for sewer and drain cleaning services across the US.
