Have you ever finished your seasonal spray on the farm, only to later discover that your next clean is taking way longer and leaving residue behind? It’s not just you. Farm equipment and trucks that regularly drive in farming and rural areas don’t often think about the residue lurking in the air and on the roads.

If your current cleaning crew decides to use the same chemicals on your truck fleet that they’d use on their minivan, you might want to question it. Washing a truck fleet is typically NOT the same as washing a car fleet for many reasons. But if you’re trying to save money on truck soap, you might be doing so at the expense of quality, and it could cost you more in…

Ever wonder why some trucks still look dirty after a wash? Or why do some fleets seem to shine for weeks while others dull after a day?

The spread of H5N1 Bird Flu or HPAI and its ability to infect livestock and other mammals, including humans means that clean trucks aren't just about looking good and avoiding salt damage. Clean trucks mean reducing the risk of spreading the disease, with the extra benefit of potentially increasing safety for your team.

The pressure washing and power equipment cleaning industry is very diverse. It’s made up of many businesses, all of which rely upon trusted manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors.

Keeping your commercial vehicle in top condition means more than just regular maintenance. It’s about protecting the investment and making sure you present a professional image. Winter weather is especially harsh on your vehicle's paint and exterior, but an extra layer of protection helps in all weather conditions.

Fleet maintenance is no longer just about keeping your vehicles clean and on the road, it’s about strategically planning for upcoming changes before they happen. From changes in customer demands, tech, and customer preferences, fleet managers are in a unique position.

Experts are predicating “a warmer, wetter-than-normal” winter this year for much of the United States. But as the colder weather approaches, it’s crucial that your fleet washing operation is prepared for freezing temperatures, potential snowfall, and road salt. Especially in the northern areas of the country.
