Car Wash Pit Cleaning Illinois

Thorough Car Wash Pit Vacuuming Across the Prairie State

Car wash pit cleaning is no easy task. If your business decides to handle it internally you could end up spending thousands on equipment, taking hours for the cleaning and waiting days for sludge to dry.

Many car wash businesses don’t know who to turn to and get sucked into false promises from septic companies. Your local septic pumper doesn’t have the expertise for properly pumping and disposing of car wash pit sludge.

Sludge Disposal Laws and Regulations in Illinois

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency dictates how car washes dispose of their waste in order to reduce harm to the soil and waterways near your business.

According to the IEPA, car washes can legally dispose of wet or dry sludge.

Disposing of dry sludge can become a major hassle for car wash companies. For starters, you will be responsible for removing the sludge either with a small excavator or with a shovel. From there you must have a designated area to dry out the sludge. This could temporarily shut down sections of your car wash or deter customers due to the smell and appearance.

After your sludge is dry, then it is up to you to dispose of it.

If you wish to remove the sludge from your property quickly, you must process wet sludge at a special waste disposal facility. It also has to be transported to the facility by a special waste hauler.

The IEPA warns that disposing of wet sludge could be more expensive. However, Pit Crew keeps costs down by owning and operating our own waste processing facility.

Pit Crew’s pit cleaning process ensures the waste is removed properly and taken to our sludge processing facility. This takes hours of work off your plate and saves you from large equipment or labor costs.

It also protects you from paying environmental fines if your waste is found to be hazardous. Many car washes face these fees if they are cutting corners for disposing of sludge or hiring unreliable septic pumpers.
