Car Wash Mats, Water Containment & Reclamation Systems
Car Wash Mats, Water Containment, Water Reclamation and Water Recovery Systems
will help keep you environmentally compliant when washing cars as a mobile detailer.
Mobile auto detailers and mobile car wash operators need to be knowledgeable about
local environmental laws as it pertains to water containment. Use car wash mats (water
containment mats) constructed of a tough material used in the trucking industry for the
transfer of hazardous liquids.
Vacu Berm - Stay in compliance with local laws by containing your wash water with the
Vacu Berm. Simply place the Vacu Berm near the gutter to capture water before it reaches
the sewer drain, or use anywhere to capture wash water.
Sand Snake - Fill the 48" Sand Snake heavy grade vinyl berm with sand and use it to
funnel water to the Vacu Berm. Use a wire tie to close up the one open end.
