Cleaning ?
Refuse collection vehicles work in some of the toughest environments on the road. Daily exposure to food waste, landfill materials, grease, road grime and leachate means standard vehicle washing simply isn't enough.
At 247 Industrial Cleaning, we provide dedicated cleaning services for RCVs, helping councils, recycling companies and commercial waste operators keep their fleets clean, presentable and easier to maintain. Our mobile teams travel throughout the UK, carrying everything required to complete the work at your depot without relying on your water or power supply.
No two waste operations are the same, which is why we don't offer a one-size-fits-all package.
Whether you operate a small depot with a dozen vehicles or manage several hundred RCVs across multiple locations, we'll design a cleaning schedule that fits your operation. We regularly work around shift patterns, ensuring vehicles are cleaned when they're parked rather than when they're needed on the road.
Cleaning can be arranged daily, weekly, fortnightly or as part of a planned maintenance programme.
Our RCV cleaning programmes can include:
A vehicle covered in grease, compacted waste and road contamination takes longer to inspect and repair.
Our workshop preparation cleans are designed to remove the build-up that often hides critical components, allowing technicians easier access during servicing, repairs and MOT inspections.
Many customers schedule these cleans before planned maintenance because it reduces workshop preparation time and provides better visibility of the vehicle's mechanical condition.
The rear of a refuse vehicle experiences the highest level of contamination throughout its working day.
We pay particular attention to:
Removing accumulated waste not only improves presentation but also makes routine inspections and servicing far more straightforward.
Where heavier contamination has built up over time, our deep cleaning service removes compacted waste from inside the hopper and surrounding areas.
This service is particularly beneficial before major repairs, bodywork maintenance or annual inspections, helping eliminate stubborn debris that standard washing cannot remove.
Our mobile cleaning units use high-temperature pressure washing systems capable of breaking down grease, oils and stubborn contamination far more effectively than cold-water cleaning alone.
Combined with carefully selected professional detergents, this produces a consistently high standard of finish while protecting painted surfaces, decals and vehicle components.
Safety is central to every visit.
Before any contract begins, we carry out a site survey to understand your depot layout, traffic movements and environmental controls. Our operatives work in accordance with approved RAMS, use appropriate PPE and follow agreed site procedures at all times.
Where drainage restrictions apply, we can also provide wash mats, drain protection and wastewater recovery solutions to support environmentally responsible vehicle cleaning.
Your vehicles represent your business every day.
A well-maintained fleet creates a positive impression with residents, customers and local authorities while helping demonstrate pride in your operation. Regular cleaning also helps preserve paintwork, improve vehicle presentation and reduce the long-term effects of road grime and corrosive contaminants.
We’re trusted by waste management companies, recycling businesses and municipal operators because we understand the demands placed on RCV fleets.
Our ability to deliver consistent results, on time and on budget, has earned us the confidence
of some of the country’s most recognisable operators.
If you’re looking for a dependable partner to maintain your refuse collection vehicles, we’d be happy to discuss your requirements.
