What changes the price
- Number of units. More units per visit means a lower price per unit.
- How often we come. Weekly and bi-weekly fleets pay less per unit than one-time jobs.
- Type and size. A sleeper takes longer than a van.
- Colour and finish. Black and dark trucks need more care to look right.
- Condition and coatings. Heavy build-up, coatings like Rain-X, mud or concrete take more time.
- Yard access. Tight yards and units spread out across a big site take longer.
- Wash level. Standard (touchless plus necessary brushing) costs less than a full hand-brushed wash.
Mobile vs drive-through cost
A drive-through truck wash may look cheaper per wash, but add the driver's paid time, the fuel to get there and back, and the hour or more the truck is off the road. For most fleets, a mobile wash at the yard costs less overall. See mobile vs drive-through.
How to pay less per unit
- Put the fleet on a regular schedule
- Wash more units per visit
- Share a visit with other carriers in the same yard
- Wash regularly so dirt never builds up
