Keeping your fleet clean is a critical part of maintaining a professional image for your business. Not only will your fleet look much nicer on the road, but staying clean also helps preserve the condition of the vehicle.
Here are some tips from our team at Butler Automotive Management that can help you keep your fleet looking great!
Find a Fleet Cleaning Service
We’ve all been there, trying to clean our vehicles quickly, only to find a tough spot that seems impossible to remove. This can be time-consuming for a normal vehicle, but for a fleet, this wasted time can cost your business a lot of money!
Hiring a professional cleaning service is the best way to ensure your fleet’s safety and your driver’s well-being.
Employees are too busy with other duties and aren’t trained to be in charge of detailing their vehicles. Plus, hiring a fleet management service guarantees quality workmanship, so it’ll be worth every penny when you see how clean everything comes out after their visit!

Get Your Fleet Cleaning on a Schedule
It is important to create a routine for your fleet washing. Sticking with the same schedule will ensure that your vehicles get cleaned regularly and not just when they need it most!
You can incorporate this with the rest of the vehicle’s maintenance by working with a fleet management company, like us here at Butler Automotive Management! Give us a call today!
Keep a Log
Keeping records of your fleet management is an essential part of ensuring accountability. If there are any problems that come up, you can use the information from these logs to analyze them and find out what went wrong so it doesn’t happen again!
Don’t Wash Every Vehicle at Once
Operating your fleet business without vehicles is simply not an option. Washing parts of the fleet at a time ensures your business won’t have to slow down.
Don’t wash every vehicle at once!
Although this may seem like a hard task to schedule, we can make it easy! Take some of the stress off your shoulders, and turn to Butler Automotive Management to manage your fleet for you!
Keep Clean In-Between
It is much easier to clean your car on a regular basis than it is to let the dirt and dust build up and then try to clean it all off at once. If you aren’t able to utilize professional services as often as you’d like, just spend a little time every day to make sure the car doesn’t get too dirty!
Here are some tips:
Use a Handheld Vacuum
Using a small handheld vacuum cleaner is another great way to clean the car quickly and easily. Vacuum the seats, carpets, and floor mats to remove all the dirt and dust. Be sure to pay special attention to areas that tend to collect dust, such as the dashboard, door panels, and headrests.
Traveling with a pet? Be sure to keep a lint roller (or two) handy to quickly clean up any fur!

Keep Your Windows Safe & Streak-Free
Dirty windows can make the entire car look dirty, no matter how clean the rest of the car is. It is important to clean your windows regularly to maintain a clear view while driving and to preserve the condition of the window.
To clean your windows, start by using a clean microfiber cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Once the windows are free of dirt, you can use a window cleaner to remove any streaks or smudges. Be sure to use a lint-free cloth, microfiber cloth, or paper towel to avoid leaving behind any streaks.
