Frequently asked questions
Where does the wastewater go when I use my portable truck wash bay?
That depends on a few things, like where your site is located and what sort of wastewater you're disposing of. Stay compliment with your local water authorities and dispose of wastewater by:
- Contacting Cleanawater operators and making an arrangement for wastewater removal
- Obtaining a license to discharge to the sewer and discharge directly into the sewerage system
- Recycle the water with a pollutant-removing unit which will let you reuse the water
Discharge into a STEDS (septic tank effluent disposal scheme). Either yourself or a Cleanawater representative working on your behalf can contact the relevant authorities to confirm that the wastewater gets accepted.
How do Cleanawater portable truck wash bays treat water?
While we can tailor wash bays to particular needs, most industries have generic requirements. Our portable truck wash bay systems:
- Collect water in a tank. Oils present are then separated from the water, which is essential for remaining compliant with wastewater regulations.
- Remove dirt, large particles, and debris such as plastic by filtering it out of the water.
We can work with your team to see if any additional features are required for compliance. To find out more about how we can help with your specific needs, get in touch with our team.
I don't have access to a sewer system on my site. What can I do?
Even if you don't have sewer system access on your site, there may be alternate options for wastewater disposal. For example, wastewater from the wash bay can be stored in a holding tank. Then, licensed liquid waste collectors from Cleanawater can remove the wastewater in a way that is compliment with industry regulations.
