Professional Pit Cleaning for Car Washes by Brownie's, A Wind River Company

Maintaining a clean car wash pit is essential for smooth, uninterrupted operations—especially in Orlando’s climate, where stormwater, debris, and seasonal factors can increase pit buildup. At Brownie's, A Wind River Company, we provide specialized car wash pit cleaning services designed to keep your system running efficiently and in compliance with environmental regulations.

Whether you're running a single-location wash or a high-traffic tunnel, we deliver reliable, eco-conscious cleaning solutions tailored to your site.

How We Clean Car Wash Pits

Our process begins with a full system inspection to locate sediment, oils, and debris that may clog your drainage or affect performance. Using industrial-grade vacuum and pump equipment, we remove heavy sludge, sand, and residue from the pit. We also use environmentally safe cleaning agents to break down stubborn buildup—especially important in regions like Central Florida where runoff can impact local waterways.

Our technicians follow all municipal and DEP guidelines for waste disposal and water quality, ensuring full compliance from start to finish.

Preventing Car Wash Pit Clogs

Preventive maintenance is key. The Orlando area sees heavy rainfall, high pollen levels, and seasonal spikes in sand, salt, and road debris—especially from vehicles coming off highways or during post-winter cleanups. Over time, this material collects in the pit and causes slow drainage or backups.

With a routine cleaning schedule, you reduce the risk of shutdowns and extend the lifespan of your drainage system. Our local team can help set up a recurring maintenance plan that fits your traffic volume and facility layout.

How Often Should Car Wash Pits Be Cleaned?

Most car wash pits should be professionally cleaned every 3 to 6 months, depending on:

How many vehicles you service per day
The season (more frequent cleaning may be needed after winter due to sand and salt residue)
Type of wash system (automatic vs. hand wash vs. detailing)

If you’re unsure, our experts can assess your current setup and recommend an ideal schedule to avoid overflows and premature system wear.

DIY vs. Professional Pit Cleaning

While some operators consider handling pit cleaning in-house, the job often requires industrial vacuums, confined space entry protocols, and proper waste handling procedures. Our technicians are trained and certified to do the work safely, quickly, and thoroughly—so you can focus on your customers.

Avoid the risk of incomplete cleaning, worker injury, or fines for improper disposal. Let us handle the dirty work so your business stays clean and compliant.

Warning Signs Your Pit Needs Cleaning

Common red flags include:

Slow-draining water in the wash bay
Standing water or overflow
Persistent sewer or chemical odors
Noticeable buildup of sludge or debris

If any of these sound familiar, it's time to schedule a service. Early intervention prevents system failure and keeps your wash operating at full capacity.
