Every hour a van spends queuing at a car wash is an hour it is not earning. For businesses based in or around Edwalton, fleet valeting brings the cleaning to the yard, car park or depot instead. We wash the outside of each vehicle, clean the cab and, on vans, sweep and wipe the load area, while the rest of your fleet keeps working.
Visits can be one-off before an inspection or a busy period, or set to a fortnightly or weekly rota. Our products and methods are COSHH compliant, wrapped and liveried panels are washed gently, and the whole batch is billed on a single invoice. The van brings its own water and power, so you do not need to provide either. Edwalton is around 26 minutes from our Chilham base and there is no call-out charge.
Running vehicles from Edwalton and the A52 corridor
Edwalton sits in the Rushcliffe council area, with the A606 running through it and the A52 skirting its edge. For a business, two A-roads on the doorstep mean vans and cars based here spend much of the working day on main routes, picking up spray as they go. The retail park off the A52 Wheatcroft roundabout, which includes the Porsche Centre Nottingham, shows the kind of setting where vehicle presentation is taken seriously. For any customer-facing business, a clean van parked outside a client's home says something before anyone has knocked on the door.
The weather works against keeping a fleet tidy. Edwalton averages 143 wet days a year and 30 air frost nights, and the main roads are gritted through the cold months. Salt and grime build up on liveries and sills quickly, and a dirty wrap is harder to read and fades faster in patches. A fortnightly visit through winter, dropping to monthly in summer, keeps vehicles presentable without overspending.

Where fleet visits work in and around Edwalton
We clean fleet vehicles at business premises, yards and car parks across Edwalton and neighbouring Gamston, as well as at homes in Sharphill, Hallfields, Wellin Lane, Village Street, Valley Road and Melton Road where a sole trader keeps a work van. The NG2, NG11 and NG12 districts are all within reach. What matters is a safe, legal area where vehicles can be lined up with space to open doors and the rear or side loading doors on vans. We bring water and power, so no hose or socket is needed from your building. If space is tight at your site, we can work through vehicles in turn as drivers return.

Setting up a fleet cleaning rota that works
Start by listing the vehicles, their sizes and where they are normally parked overnight or between jobs. Tell us which ones carry signwriting, wraps or chrome trim so we can plan the right method. If drivers are on shifts, the quietest window, often late afternoon, is usually best for cleaning. Early starts can sometimes be arranged, though standard hours are Monday to Saturday, 9am to 5pm. Ask drivers to empty cabs of paperwork and personal items the day before.
Through winter, ask for the sills, arches and lower panels to get extra attention, as that is where salt sits longest. In summer you can usually stretch the gap between visits. Reviewing the rota every few months makes sure you are not paying for more cleans than the vehicles need.

"Best mobile car valet you can get in Derby. Honestly did a smashing job, went through every nook and cranny you can imagine and made sure it was all very well done. Lovely bloke as well."
Fleet Valeting in Edwalton: Questions
Yes, as long as the vans are back at the yard or depot during our visit. The simplest pattern is usually cleaning later in the day once they return; a visit before vehicles go out can sometimes be arranged, as standard hours are Monday to Saturday, 9am to 5pm. Let us know which vehicles will be available at what time and we will work through them in turn so nobody is waiting around.
Yes. As well as the cab and exterior, we sweep and wipe down the load area, removing dust, mud and loose debris. If you carry materials that leave heavy residue, such as plaster or oil, tell us in advance so we can bring the right products. Shelving and racking can be wiped down, though heavily soiled racking may need extra time.
We use gentle washing methods for liveried and wrapped panels, avoiding high pressure close to edges and seams where a wrap can lift. Products are chosen to be safe on vinyl films and paint. If a wrap is already peeling or damaged, point it out at the start so we can take extra care around it, but older wraps can still lift with age.
