You could Phil, however you would need to put a catchment/filter tank inline between your hose and waste tank. Gutter debris is hard soils, sand, grit and weeds. If this got into your waste tank it would take a week to get it back out.

Thats what i was thinking but a filter would just clog straight away i was thinking of a waste tank that could be easy accessed to empty

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm Not sure about this. Why use a truckmount for gutter cleaning. You need to make money using a truckmount and how long would it take to clean gutters. 1 hour? If that was the case you would need to charge too much for the service. Don't wish to sound snotty but you have a truckmount to clean carpets and anything else like gutter cleaning wont make you the money versus the time taken running the truckmount.
That's my humble opinion - but I will stand corrected by the gutter cleaners.
