Day-to-day operating brief

What Wash Bay Attendant work looks like in practice

A Wash Bay Attendant cleans vehicle exteriors, cabs, trailers or load spaces using pressure washers and approved chemicals. Terms should cover vehicle movement, keys, isolation, slippery surfaces, spray hazards, working at height, drainage, interceptors, waste, contamination, interior property and defect reporting. The attendant should not move vehicles without entitlement or discharge prohibited substances through the wash system. Vehicle cleaning can reveal cracked lamps, loose panels, tyre damage or leaks hidden by dirt, making observation and handover valuable. The attendant should secure doors, booms or accessories and protect electrical or camera equipment before pressure washing. Terms can cover winter ice, legionella controls for stored water, recycling systems and separation of food, waste or hazardous-use vehicles. Cleaning completion should state excluded areas and contamination holds rather than imply full readiness where specialist decontamination remains. Slippery surfaces and reduced visibility require bay barriers and housekeeping throughout the task, not only a warning sign placed after washing has finished.

  • Prepare vehicles and wash areas.
  • Use pressure and chemical equipment safely.
  • Clean specified exterior and interior areas.
  • Manage runoff waste and housekeeping.
