What about the outside , does anyone wash caravans?
I would be interested to know if anyone cleans just the outside also as you would can clean the entire so what would you charge really, I have a couple of over 50's parks around by me so maybe this might be an area to get into but not sure what to charge really.
It all depends on how dirty it is, firstly do not use a pressure washer 1, it can cause leaks 2, it is too messy. the best method is use a water fed pole soft brush eg 12ft multi pole or equiv, for general outside cleaning pure water should be sufficient hot or cold, if the caravan is soiled a medium Traffic film remover is okay to use firsty spray caravan with the TFR low pressure from the bottom up by the time you get round it all you then rinse with pure water from the top down over this will give you the best result.
If you are cleaning caravans near a wooded area the chances are they will have green algae growth this is a problem area and needs to be treated with care, there are many chemiclas on the market which will kill algae but will probably kill other things as well, so if you have this problem then the best way to clean and remove the algae is to use a trolley system filled with a solution of Algae remover and again spray from the bottom upwards and leave it to do its job for about 15 mins or so then use a WFP (soft) or a vikan car brush attached to a WFP and wash from the top down over for best results.
If the caravans are close in these wooded parks the chances are all vans are covered with some growth so you can get all the business.
We charge for an outside clean £20 to £35 standard wash depending on size of van.
Algae removal and treatment from £45 to £75.00 contract price for site owner vans £45 to £65.00
