A liquid collection device includes: a suction tank configured to suck and collect liquid accumulated in a liquid reservoir; a suction passage connecting the liquid reservoir and an inlet opened in a lower portion of the suction tank to each other; a suctioner configured to generate a negative pressure in the suction tank and suck the liquid from the liquid reservoir into the suction tank via the suction passage by using the generated negative pressure; and a controller configured to control the suctioner to terminate suction of the liquid into the suction tank upon continuance of a state where a pressure in the suction tank is equal to or greater than a threshold for a prescribed time or more after start of the suction.
