Taking Care Of Our Denver Truck Wash Clients In The Winter
Its almost impossible for our truck washing crews -
- to clean all our client's tractors and trailers when the days barely get above freezing.
Truck Washing Crews At Fedex Freight
Even when the air temperature is in the low 40’s, the surface of the shady side of trailers doesn’t necessarily rise above the freezing mark. When water freezes, it concentrates whatever dirt is in the water. When the ice melts, it leaves behind a mark on the surface it was frozen to - in this case, the shady sides of trailers.
On the other hand, sometimes the surface temperature of the sides of trailers is much warmer than the air temperature. Just this past weekend we knew a snow storm was coming in sometime late on Saturday and we were trying to get as much truck washing done at FedEx as possible before the temperature dropped.
We had four 3-man truck washing crews working hard to get almost 300 tractors and trailers washed. It didn’t warm above freezing until about 10:30am, and the high for the day was only about 40 degrees. We watched the storm front move in and around 3pm flurries started falling, but no ice was forming on the surface of the trucks.
Our truck washing crews kept scrubbing the trucks and trailers even though snow was falling around us!
Even the south-facing sides weren’t freezing. We never know how the weather is going to affect our mobile truck washing schedule. We spend a lot of time planning, but in the end, the weather dictates much of what we can get done.
