Commercial fleet washing pricing is driven by three things: vehicle type, fleet size, and service frequency. Recurring accounts are quoted with a per-unit rate that steps down at standard volume tiers, and frequency discounts stack on top — a weekly cadence pays less per wash than a monthly one, every time. Prime quotes ranges, not invented precision, because the real number depends on what rolls onto your yard and how often. The five questions below cover what most prospects ask before signing, with honest ranges and the math behind them.
Pricing depends on vehicle type, fleet size, and frequency, but most commercial exterior washes fall in the $35–$85 per-unit range, with semi-trucks and articulated waste haulers at the upper end and box trucks at the lower end. Recurring weekly or bi-weekly contracts come in lower per-unit than one-time washes because crews are already on a route.
For an exact quote across Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, or Reno, call (702) 280-6668 or (775) 502-0820 in Reno. More on how the math works in the fleet washing cost guide.
Yes — volume tiers kick in for fleets of roughly 20+ units, with deeper discounts at larger fleet sizes. The per-unit rate steps down at each tier because fixed costs (drive time, water and chemistry setup, wastewater handling) get amortized across more vehicles.
Discounts compound with frequency: a weekly 100-unit account pays less per wash than a monthly 30-unit account. National accounts running multiple fleets across our four markets are quoted as one program.
Standard payment terms are Net 30 for established accounts, with ACH and credit card both accepted. New accounts may start on Net 15 or pre-paid first wash, transitioning to Net 30 after the second or third invoice cycle.
Multi-market accounts across Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, and Reno bill on a single consolidated monthly invoice with per-yard line items so AP can allocate by location.
There are no setup fees on standard recurring accounts. Minimums apply only to one-time washes in remote sub-areas where dispatch time exceeds an hour each way, and even then the minimum is stated upfront in writing — not a surprise on the invoice.
For recurring accounts there is no minimum unit count beyond what makes route economics sensible. If the route does not pencil, Prime will say so during scoping and propose a different cadence.
A wash cancelled with at least 24 hours' notice incurs no charge. If a crew arrives at the yard and cannot access the units (gate locked, units in service, no spotter on-site), the visit is billed at a reduced trip-fee rate so dispatch costs are not eaten.
Weather cancellations initiated by Prime are never charged, and the next-available slot is held automatically.
Prime is a commercial-only operator. The service lines cover fleet washing (mobile, on-site at the customer yard) and commercial pressure washing (buildings, lots, dumpster pads, graffiti, spill response). Tucson adds oil spill response as a dedicated service line; Reno adds winter cinder and brine remediation seasonally. Below are eight scope questions that come up most often during sales calls — what we wash, what we add on, and the line between fleet and property work.
Prime washes semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, dry vans, reefer trailers, flatbeds, tankers, box trucks, delivery vans, refuse and packer trucks, roll-offs, buses, construction equipment, and heavy equipment such as dozers, loaders, and excavators. If the vehicle is commercial and rolls onto a yard, it is almost always in scope.
The fleet washing hub has the full per-type list with separate pages for each vehicle class.
Yes — dozers, excavators, skid steers, loaders, articulated dump trucks, water trucks, and concrete pumps are routine work, especially in the Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Reno construction corridors. Crews handle caked mud, hardened concrete splatter, asphalt residue, and the iron-oxide staining that builds up on yellow iron after long sites.
Mud knocking is offered as a first-stage add-on where needed. Read more in the construction equipment cleaning guide.
Garbage truck cleaning is one of Prime's largest service lines across all four markets. The service covers hopper degreasing, packer-body cleaning, exterior wash, and interior cab detailing for refuse fleets — with EPA-compliant wastewater recovery on every wash so leachate does not enter the storm drain.
Deodorizing and corrosion-protection treatments are available as add-ons. See the garbage truck cleaning guide for the full protocol.
Yes. Dry vans, reefer trailers, and food-grade trailers are washed out using hot-water sanitizing chemistry where required. A washout document (photo log plus signed completion form) is provided so receivers and brokers have the inspection record they need.
Reefer washouts include drain-pan flushing and rear-bulkhead detail. More on the trailer washouts page.
Mud knocking is the first-stage removal of caked mud, concrete, and aggregate from construction equipment before a proper wash can happen — typically performed with high-pressure water, scrapers, and sometimes manual chipping.
Yes, Prime does it; it is standard on construction and concrete and aggregate accounts. Mud knocking is priced separately from the wash itself because it can double labor time per unit, and quoting it as a line item keeps the wash rate honest.
Yes — Tucson is Prime's largest oil spill response market, with crews dispatched same-day to roadway, yard, and facility spills. Service includes absorbent application, contained recovery, surface decontamination, and manifest disposal of contaminated absorbent.
Spill response is also available on call in Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Reno. See the emergency spill cleanup page.
All fleet washing is performed on-site at the customer's yard or facility — trucks never leave the lot. Crews bring the water, chemistry, hot-water equipment, and EPA-compliant wastewater recovery system to the location and work around the customer's dispatch schedule (overnight, weekend, between shifts).
On-site service is the entire point of a mobile fleet wash program. Driver time is the most expensive line item in a fleet's P&L, and we do not waste it.
Commercial pressure washing includes building exteriors, parking lots, sidewalks, dumpster pads, drive-thru lanes, graffiti removal, and emergency spill cleanup. Property managers, restaurants, retail chains, and industrial facilities are the typical accounts.
The pressure washing hub has the full per-surface list. Recurring property maintenance contracts are quoted the same way as fleet washing — per visit, with frequency discounts.
Fleet washing only works if it does not interrupt revenue. Crews are built around overnight, early-morning, and weekend windows so trucks are clean and ready when drivers arrive — not parked clean while waiting on a wash bay. Dispatch is 24/7 and recurring routes are scheduled around the customer's natural downtime, never the other way around. The seven questions below cover cadence, operating hours, weekend service, weather policy, onboarding timeline, per-unit wash time, and overnight programs for logistics fleets.
Most commercial fleets in the desert Southwest benefit from weekly or bi-weekly washing because dust, UV, and road grime accumulate fast. Northern Nevada fleets often accelerate to twice-weekly during winter mag-chloride brine season (October through April).
DOT-regulated carriers should align cadence with inspection cycles under 49 CFR 396.7. More detail in how often should fleets be washed.
Prime runs 24/7 dispatch across all four markets, with crews routinely working overnight, early-morning, and weekend windows so washes do not interrupt revenue-generating routes.
Standard recurring accounts schedule washes during the customer's natural downtime — overnight for delivery fleets, weekend for construction equipment, mid-shift for refuse fleets. Emergency one-time washes are available same-week.
Yes — weekend washing is standard for accounts whose yards are most accessible on Saturday or Sunday, including construction, equipment rental, and some refuse operators. There is no weekend surcharge on recurring contracts.
One-time weekend washes are priced at the standard rate when scheduled in advance. Last-minute weekend dispatch may include a small after-hours fee, quoted before the visit.
Most new accounts move from first call to first wash within a couple of weeks once the scoping call, walk-through, COI, and contract are complete. Emergency or one-time service is often available the same week depending on crew availability in that market.
Multi-market accounts take slightly longer because COI, payment terms, and dispatch coordination across four cities are set up once at the start. After that, adding new yards is fast.
Light rain does not stop a wash because the wash itself is wetter than the rain. Heavy rain, hail, or lightning gets the visit rescheduled at no charge — Prime initiates the cancellation and the next-available slot is held.
Winter Reno snow and ice events follow the same rule: safety first, reschedule, no charge. Crews will not put themselves or customer property at risk for a single wash slot.
A standard exterior tractor-trailer wash runs 15 to 25 minutes per unit on a recurring route, including pre-soak, brush, pressure rinse, and per-unit photo documentation. One-off washes with heavy mud, concrete, or oxidation take longer — sometimes double — because mud knocking and chemistry dwell time add minutes per unit.
Interior cab detailing is a separate 30 to 45 minute add-on per unit.
Overnight washing is standard for delivery, distribution, and logistics fleets across all four markets — crews arrive after the evening dispatch and complete the wash before morning roll-out. Hot-water equipment and mobile lighting make night work the same quality as day work.
Photo logs are time-stamped so dispatch can confirm completion before drivers arrive. This is the default cadence for most logistics accounts.
Wastewater handling and insurance are the two questions that decide most enterprise deals. Prime is built around EPA Clean Water Act compliance and full additional-insured documentation on every recurring account. Five questions below cover what gets asked in procurement.
Every Prime wash captures the wastewater stream and handles disposal under documented procedures, satisfying the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1251) and the EPA NPDES stormwater program. Prime carries the Clean Water Act liability so it does not sit on the customer's yard.
SWPPP-relevant documentation is provided to customers whose facilities operate under industrial stormwater permits. Full detail on the EPA wastewater compliance guide.
Wash water is captured at the source using berms, vacuum recovery, or containment mats depending on the yard, then transferred to permitted disposal. Captured wastewater never enters the storm drain, the sanitary sewer (without authorization), or open ground.
The disposal chain ends with a manifest that is retained as part of the per-account record. Customers operating under their own NPDES permit can request copies for their environmental file.
Prime carries General Liability with a $2M umbrella, plus pollution endorsements for the wastewater work. Auto liability covers the mobile units in every state where crews operate (NV and AZ). Workers' compensation is in force in every operating state.
Full coverage detail is on the insurance and compliance page, and procurement can request the agent's contact for verification.
Yes — COIs are issued before the first wash on every account, no exceptions. Additional-insured endorsements naming the customer are available on request inside 24 hours.
Custom wording for prime contractors, GC requirements, or municipal contracts is handled by the agent and turned around the same business day. Multi-market accounts get one COI covering all four operating states.
Yes. Additional-insured endorsements are available within 24 hours of a written request and can name the customer, the parent entity, and any GC or property owner specified in the contract.
There is no fee for the endorsement on standard recurring accounts. Waiver of subrogation is available on the same turnaround when required by a vendor management portal.
Prime serves four metros directly: Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, and Reno. Sub-areas of each metro are covered out of the parent yard. Five questions below cover where crews work day-to-day and what happens when an account asks us to travel further.
Prime services four metros directly with owner-supervised crews: Las Vegas NV, Phoenix AZ, Tucson AZ, and Reno NV.
Each metro has its own yard, local contact, and recurring-cadence accounts — including sub-areas like Henderson, North Las Vegas, Mesa, Chandler, Marana, Sparks, Carson City, and the USA Parkway and Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center corridor.
Yes — Reno is Prime's newest market, with crews working out of the yard at 5301 Longley Lane. The service radius covers Reno, Sparks, Carson City, Fernley, Minden, Gardnerville, Lockwood, the TRI Center, and the USA Parkway industrial corridor.
Reno accounts are run by Adam directly at (775) 502-0820. Winter mag-chloride brine remediation is a major service line in this market.
Yes. Phoenix coverage runs across the East Valley logistics corridor (Mesa, Chandler, Goodyear, Casa Grande) and the West Valley (Glendale and the data-center buildout).
Tucson opened in April 2025 and covers Sierra Vista, Marana, Oro Valley, and Sahuarita. Both Arizona markets share the same crew standards, wash chemistry, and photo-log format as Las Vegas.
Yes — multi-market accounts across Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, and Reno run under one MSA, one COI, and one monthly invoice. Crew standards, wash chemistry, equipment specifications, and the photo-log format are identical across markets.
National accounts and regional carriers running fleets in more than one Prime city are a routine fit. AP gets one bill, ops gets one point of contact.
Out-of-area work happens regularly for the right account size and scope — particularly for emergency spill response, one-time mobilization to job sites in Fort Mohave, Bullhead City, or Northern California, and multi-week project work for large GCs or municipal accounts.
Travel fees and minimum scope are quoted in writing before the first dispatch. Recurring out-of-area work is evaluated case-by-case based on whether route economics support a regular cadence.
A 30-question FAQ is built to answer in two-to-four sentences. Some questions deserve more — pricing math, DOT inspection rules, EPA wastewater handling, winter brine remediation. The resource library covers each of those at full length, and the location hubs go deep on what is specific to each metro. A short tour below.
Pricing & quoting. For the line-by-line breakdown of how Prime quotes a fleet — the difference between a one-time mobilization rate and a recurring per-unit rate, how mud knocking is line-itemed separately, and what a multi-yard route looks like for a regional carrier — the fleet washing cost guide is the long-form version of the pricing answers above. The vendor selection guide covers what to demand in a wash contract so a fleet manager is not chasing a vendor for COIs or photo logs after the fact.
Compliance & DOT. The DOT inspection cleanliness guide walks through 49 CFR 396 and what FMCSA roadside inspectors actually flag, and the EPA wastewater compliance guide covers the Clean Water Act, the NPDES program, and how Prime's wash water capture stays inside that envelope. Carriers running their own SWPPP under an industrial stormwater permit will find the wash-vendor section directly useful.
Seasonality & geography. Northern Nevada fleets fight magnesium chloride brine from October through April — the winter fleet washing guide covers it. Southwest fleets fight dust and UV year-round — the desert fleet washing guide covers it. The mobile vs. in-bay fleet wash comparison covers why the mobile-on-yard model wins on driver time and CapEx for most operators in these geographies.
Vehicle & equipment specifics. The garbage truck cleaning guide goes deep on hopper degreasing, leachate handling, and corrosion protection on refuse fleets. The construction equipment cleaning guide covers mud knocking, hardened-concrete removal, and iron-oxide staining on yellow iron. The cadence guide covers how to set wash frequency by industry, geography, and DOT exposure.
Markets & geography. Each location hub — Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, and Reno — covers the local industries, sub-areas, yard address, and the local contact. For procurement and insurance specifics, the insurance & compliance page consolidates the $2M umbrella, additional-insured endorsement process, and the agent's contact path. If a question is not answered here or in the library, the fastest path is still a phone call — Prime is owner-operated and the person who answers is usually the person who scopes the route.
