Amphibious machines that clear overgrowth and debris from Sarasota County’s stormwater canals and channels, protecting drainage and the bay they flow toward.
In Sarasota, most canals and channels exist to carry stormwater, not boats. They funnel runoff off neighborhoods and out toward Roberts Bay and the wider Sarasota Bay system. Let one choke with vegetation and debris, and two things break at once: the channel can no longer move a heavy rain, and the nutrients and sediment it does carry head straight for waters the region works hard to protect.
Clearing these channels is awkward for standard equipment. They are shallow, soft-banked, and often tucked behind homes with no room to stage a machine on land.
Truxor works from the water itself, cutting and lifting the growth and debris out of the channel so it drains the way it was built to, without tearing up the bank on the way in.
Keep stormwater channels clear of the vegetation and debris that stall drainage and load the bay downstream.
A residential canal on Siesta Key does not clog like an inland stormwater channel near Phillippi Creek. One traps floating growth, another silts in and slows, and the access and depth differ on every job across the county.
We help you match the right machine and attachments to the canals you maintain and the drainage they are responsible for.
Whether you keep residential canals clear or manage stormwater channels for a district, we help you clear more with less labor and equipment.
Clearing a Sarasota channel is about reaching soft-banked water, keeping drainage open, and protecting what flows downstream.
Work shallow, soft-bottomed channels where heavy land equipment sinks or cannot get to the water.
Clear the growth and debris that narrow a channel and stall it when a storm rolls through.
Pull vegetation and sediment before the channel carries them toward Roberts Bay and Sarasota Bay.
Canal clearing in Sarasota is recurring work, and a channel that drains to a protected bay is worth doing right. We back Sarasota County contractors, municipalities, and district crews for the life of the equipment.
Every purchase includes:
Watch the machine clear an overgrown Sarasota stormwater channel and judge the reach, the speed, and the light footprint on soft banks for yourself.
If keeping Sarasota County canals and stormwater channels clear is your responsibility, tell us what you are up against and we will help you land on the right Truxor setup.
An amphibious machine, because it can work the shallow, soft-banked channels common across Sarasota County, cutting and lifting vegetation and debris from the water without heavy equipment staged on the bank
Because these channels drain toward Roberts Bay and the Sarasota Bay system. Clearing the vegetation and debris protects both your drainage capacity and the protected waters downstream.
Yes. It launches off a bank or ramp and works the channel on its own, which suits residential canals on Siesta Key and elsewhere in the county where land access is tight.
