The time it takes to wash a bus depends on the equipment you’re using, and the difference can be huge.
Pressure Washing
Manual pressure washing can take 30 – 90 minutes per bus depending on how dirty the bus is.
It involves staff moving around the vehicle, potentially using ladders, scrubbing by hand, and rinsing. It’s slow, labour-intensive, and often inconsistent alongside the risk of injury from the pressure washer.
Gantry Wash Systems
A fixed gantry wash typically takes 6 -10 minutes depending on the wash it is set up for, but you need to drive each bus to the unit, which adds time. These systems also come with high installation costs and require regular maintenance.
Speedy Wash

It’s:
- Battery powered and mobile: take it straight to where the bus is parked
