Vehicle Washing & Detailing (Mobile Solution Available)

AbilityOne and its nonprofit partners recognize that maintaining the appearance and condition of vehicles affects their value as assets and the image you project to the public. We can provide cost-efficient vehicle and equipment washing and detailing services at your facilities either in your service department or as a mobile service in parking lots.

Vehicle exterior washing and interior cleaning and detailing
Government fleets outsource vehicle washing and interior detailing services to enable their skilled staff mechanics to spend more time on the maintenance and repairs for which they are trained. AbilityOne and its NPA partners can provide supplement personnel to hand or spray wash vehicles and clean or detail interiors to your specifications.

Clean by steam – a green solution
Steam cleans the entire car; exterior including tires, interior, windows and engine. It is an ideal mobile car wash system. The machines mobility means vehicles can be cleaned nearly anywhere – including the typical office parking lot.

Environmentally-Friendly
Perhaps the most attractive aspect of the mobile steam wash system is how safe it is for the environment. Traditional, coin-operated car washes typically use about seven gallons of water per wash, but this equipment requires just eight ounces (one cup) of distilled water and a small amount of biodegradable wax cleaner to simultaneously wash and wax an average sedan automobile. The dual effect of car washing and polishing saves time, improves efficiency and better protects a vehicle by reducing exterior paint deterioration.

Other environmentally friendly features include:

• ZERO water or chemical run-off
• Eradicates the need for water recycling
• Energy saving shut-off valves
• Biodegradable products
• Reduces fuel, emissions
• And MOST IMPORTANTLY – oss of individual employee time involved with moving vehicle to/from a traditional car wash facility

Mobile washing and interior cleaning
Mobile washing services (also known as “site washing”) are ideal for Government fleets that are geographically dispersed across a large facility or located at multiple sites or campuses or that have limited available space/wash bays in their maintenance facilities. Site washing and interior cleaning minimizes down-time for vehicles and drivers because we bring the services to you.
