Question & Answer
Q: How often should commercial trucks be washed?
For trucking companies in Terrebonne and the Greater Montreal area, we recommend washing your fleet every 1–2 weeks to maintain a professional image and prevent dirt, salt, and grime from causing corrosion. Trucks that operate in winter or through construction zones may need weekly or even daily washes.
Q: Why is regular truck washing important for fleets?
Regular truck washing:
- Protects paint and metal surfaces from road salt, grime, and chemicals
- Extends the lifespan of the vehicle body and components
- Keeps your brand image strong with clean, professional-looking vehicles
- Meets DOT, safety, and hygiene compliance requirements for certain industries
- Improves driver satisfaction and pride in their equipment
Q: Do you offer mobile truck washing?
Yes. Bateman Power Wash offers on-site mobile fleet washing anywhere in Terrebonne, Montreal, Laval, and surrounding areas. We bring our own water supply and commercial-grade equipment, so you don’t have to take your trucks out of service for cleaning.
Q: Can truck washing remove road salt and prevent rust?
Absolutely. Our washing process includes undercarriage cleaning to flush out road salt, calcium, and sand that can cause rust and premature wear. This is especially important in Quebec winters, when salt buildup accelerates corrosion.
Q: How long does it take to wash a truck?
Depending on the size and type of truck, washing typically takes 20–45 minutes per unit. Fleet washing is faster because we set up for multiple trucks at once, minimizing downtime.
Q: What types of trucks do you wash?
We clean:
- Semi-trucks & trailers
- Box trucks
- Dump trucks
- Tankers
- Flatbeds
- Heavy equipment transporters
- Company service vehicles
Q: Do you use eco-friendly detergents for truck washing?
Yes. We use biodegradable, non-corrosive cleaning agents that are safe for paint, aluminum, chrome, and the environment. Our wastewater is contained and disposed of in compliance with local environmental regulations.
Q: How much does truck washing cost?
Pricing depends on the number of units, vehicle type, wash frequency, and service options (e.g., aluminum brightening, degreasing, or interior cleaning). Bateman Power Wash offers volume discounts for fleets and regular service contracts.
Q: Do you offer after-hours truck washing?
Yes. We offer evening, overnight, and weekend fleet washing to avoid disrupting your operations. Our mobile crews work around your schedule.
Q: Can you wash trucks in winter?
Yes. Our hot water pressure washing system works year-round, allowing us to remove salt, slush, and road grime even in sub-zero conditions. This helps prevent rust and mechanical issues caused by winter buildup.
