No doubt that during the winter months your wash time is cut pretty drastically. In Mich. our washing is done (if at all possible)between 11:00 am to 3:00 pm give or take an hour.
When the first snow falls we notify our customers of our winter weather washing policy. We offer an opportunity for them to reschedule their wash.
Many of our customers are on a split cycle. They get washed every other week in the summer, then they switch to weekly washes in the winter...for 2 reasons.
One, the trucks are at their dirtiest. Two, they know that if they are on the board for a weekly wash, when we are frozen out one week they are on the board for the following week. Our EOW customers sometime suffer as a result of not switching...that's where we step in and sell them on a more frequent wash schedule.
It also helps to have accounts where washing is done inside. (i.e. bakeries, package delivery companies etc...) Those companies will be your bread and butter through the winter.
