Clean cans. Clean community.
It's important to us that our cleaning process is safe for your family, your neighbourhood, and the environment.
Wash water is not grey water.
Many people don't think about what happens to the water when you wash something out on the driveway or street. It flows into the storm drain — which connects directly to local rivers, lakes, and streams. Not filtered. Not treated. Straight in.
Garbage cans contain bacteria, fats and oils, household chemicals, and even pesticides. Handling that wash water properly matters.
We built our truck around a 17-stage filtration and water recycling system. We capture the dirtiest water from inside your garbage cans while they're being rised out on our truck. That water is filtered and recycled to reduce the amount of water used. The high heat of our water system burns off bacteria, grime, and bio-hazardous material in the process. Solid debris is collected by onboard filters, bagged, and disposed of legally at licensed facilities.
Effective cleaning without the chemical load.
High-pressure hot water does most of the heavy lifting. Heat and pressure kill bacteria and blast out grime far more effectively than cold water. Our truck heats the water to up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit to better eliminate backteria.
It's better for the environment and better for your cans.
