What is trench shoring equipment used for?

Trench shoring equipment, including trench boxes and shoring boxes, protects workers by preventing trench walls from collapsing during excavation work such as utility, pipeline and sewer installation. Instead of digging a trench with sloped sides, crews can dig straight down and lower a shoring box into place, which saves space and reduces the amount of digging required.

What type of trench box do I need?

The right trench box depends on trench depth and soil type. Lightweight aluminum trench boxes are easier to move and work well in shallower trenches and more stable soil, while heavier-duty steel trench boxes hold up better in deep trenches and loose or wet soil conditions. Slide rail systems are often used for very deep or long excavations where a traditional box isn't practical.

What should I check before bidding on a used trench box?

Before bidding, inspect the panels and spreaders for cracks, bends or corrosion, check that the hydraulic or mechanical spreader mechanism operates smoothly, and confirm the box's rated depth and width match your job requirements.
