a body that encloses and forms a space;
a secondary reservoir in communication with the body;
a screw attached to the body and in communication with the space and configured to move and separate the contents from the space, wherein the contents includes water and sand; and
a centrifugal separator attached to the body and in fluid communication with the the secondary reservoir;
wherein the centrifugal separator receives the contents from the secondary reservoir and separates the sand from the water within the contents and channels the sand back to the space, which in turn is received by the screw; and
wherein the sand is deposited in a pile outside the body via the screw.
