<br />We could construct a wash bay large enough to accommodate all equipment at the Public Works <br />site with in-floor heat, pressure washer, soap at an estimated cost of $250,000. <br />Staff has identified other options including: <br /> <br /> Utilize carwashes that are large enough to accommodate our vehicles - There’s only a couple of <br />companies that have a semi-automatic vehicle wash that are big enough for a dump truck. One is <br />in Lakeville and charges $85 per wash. With the 45 mile one-way drive to get the equipment <br />washed after a snow event, it is likely that the vehicle will be again covered in salt during the <br />return trip. There’s also a place in South St. Paul, but the reviews aren’t great. <br /> <br />Hiring an outside company to wash equipment - Bioclean is the most popular mobile wash <br />company in the area. They dispatch a truck with a pressure washer and soap so I’m not sure what <br />they would be able to accomplish that we aren’t currently doing. Hiring a service at a cost to wash <br />many pieces of equipment on-site could prove to be a very large financial commitment depending <br />on the snow event totals for the year. Staff doesn’t feel this would be financially viable at this <br />time. <br />
