Authority-compliant wash bays for RV parks
Cleanawater’s RV wash bays are designed to comply with all Australian authority rules and regulations. All wastewater generated is filtered through an oil-water separator before being sent to the sewers. Our mobile wash bay designs do not require any in-ground works for installation, limiting your environmental footprint and allowing you to place your wash bay wherever you feel is most convenient for your customers.
You can rest assured that your site will always be above board and in the good graces of your local environmental authorities and your guests alike.
Simple set-up, simple-use caravan self-serve wash bays
Relaxed, comfortable and constant travel — that’s the appeal of the RV lifestyle. But it’s hard to enjoy life in a recreational vehicle caked in dirt, dust and debris. Out on the road, caravan owners are usually forced to go to a truck wash if they want some heavy-duty cleaning done, but navigating a truck stop bustling with big rigs isn’t ideal.
You'll turn your site into a regular stop on every traveller's journey by providing RV and caravan owners with a safe and simple washing bay for large vehicles.

Meticulously designed wash bays for RVs and caravans
Cleanawater’s caravan wash bays allow both self-service and automatic washing. High-pressure water jets scrub caravans with high-pressure water and detergent jets from multiple angles.
To offer your customers even greater convenience, we offer several set-up configurations. These include the addition or removal of ramps, walls and covered shelters. For example, you may prefer a single ramp for a drive-on/reverse-off design or two opposing ramps for drive-through functionality.
We can create whatever wash bay design you feel best serves your customers.

What our clients say about working with us
I have been a plumber for over thirty years and installed many water treatment systems. CleanaWater systems are by far the best for quality and reliability. They provide excellent customer service, from sales staff right through to expert advice and technical help. Can't thank CleanaWater enough!
Iain Paterson, Multilple Trades and Maintenance
We have seen a fantastic improvement since the OdourPro VapourGard™ system was installed 3 years ago. The system mitigates the heavy odours which are released from the site, which has improved conditions for our staff and almost completely eliminated complaints from local residents and businesses
Glenn Claverie, Select Civil
The whole process was very simple, the sales and technical support was great, when needed contact was made easily for assistance during construction and the finished product works and looks fantastic, all in all working with the CleanaWater team to purchase our new Portable Wash Bay was a trouble free process
Doug Neil, Stihl Sales and Service Centre Coffs Harbour
The purchasing of our oil separator, from obtaining a quote through to delivery, was made extremely easy through CleanaWater, the staff are easy to deal with and make the whole process hassle-free, as well as supplying a quality product. I would highly recommend CleanaWater products in the future.
Bret Sheehan, Surefire Plumbing Services
The VapourGard™ system is a great alternative to the other odour suppression systems out there. The unit is easy to use and maintain, does not need a portable water source to dilute the chemical and has a low chemical usage which cuts down on cost.
Nicholas Bhugon, SITA Australia
CleanaWater have been very helpful in getting the solution ordered and out the door to us as quickly as possible. All this in the midst of supply chain issues globally. It’s nice when things still, just, work!
Tom Filipcic, FUCHS Lubricants (Australasia) Pty. Ltd.
In combination with a wide range of operational controls, we have found that complaints from our neighbours have significantly reduced since the VapourGard was installed.

Frequently asked questions
How big are your RV wash bays?
With our modular designs, we can make your wash bay as big as you need. If you run a large RV park, you’ll be able to wash as many caravans as you like at one time.
Our wash bay decks come in two sizes:
-
Small: 3.25m x 2.4m (W x D).
-
Large: 6.5m x 2.4m (W x D).
Being modular, you can chain as many decks together as you like. Once you’ve reached an adequate size, you can orient the self-serve wash bays in any way by choosing which faces will be walls and which will be ramps.
What are the standard inclusions of your caravan wash bays?
Standard inclusions include:
-
Galvanised steel deck modules.
-
Galvanised steel wall sheets.
-
Galvanised steel ramp.
-
Galvanised steel wall supports.
Galvanised steel gutter grates and trash screens.
What happens if the draining system gets blocked?
No wastewater system is immune to blockages. Our solution was to develop easy wash bays to unclog and clean.
The draining pipes below the wash pad run at 45° (rather than the standard 90° angles), making it significantly easier for your nearest plumber to snake.
How do I clean an RV wash bay?
We’ve intentionally designed our wash bay gutter channels to fit the head of a standard channel spade, which you can pick up at any hardware store. With regular check-ups by your site staff, you shouldn’t have to worry about draining blockages too much.
Are the wash decks skid-proof?
We’ve coated our decks in non-slip polyurethane to ensure wheels — and feet — don’t go skidding accidentally.
