Fleet Vehicle Detailing in St. Louis
Keep Your Business Vehicles Clean, Professional, and Protected
A friend of mine owns a plumbing company out in Fenton. One day, he said, “Our vans are embarrassing. Customers probably think we work as sloppy as they look.” He was half-joking—but not really wrong. That is a common issue for a lot of business owners when their fleet vehicles are covered in dirt, salt, fast food wrappers, and old decals. That is exactly why we started offering Fleet Vehicle Detailing right here in St. Louis.
Your business vehicles are not just transportation—they are rolling advertisements. The condition of your fleet says a lot about your company before anyone even steps out of the truck.
What Is Fleet Vehicle Detailing?
Fleet vehicle detailing means cleaning, correcting, and protecting every part of your work vehicles—inside and out. Whether you have three vans or thirty pickups, we take care of each one as if it were being showcased.
This goes way beyond a quick rinse and vacuum. We perform full paint decontamination, shampooing, stain removal, trim restoration, and even ceramic coating if you choose. Every vehicle gets attention to detail—whether it is headed to a job in Arnold or stopping by a client’s house in Chesterfield.
Why Fleet Detailing Matters for St. Louis Businesses
The weather here in St. Louis is tough. Salt during the winter, bugs in the summer, and dust year-round from highways like 44, 270, and 141. If you are not keeping up with the condition of your fleet, the wear and tear builds up quickly—both inside and out.
But it is not just about keeping the paint shiny. Regular fleet detailing helps you:
Make a better first impression
Improve your company’s image
Protect your investment
Encourage employees to take better care of the vehicles
We had an HVAC team from South County bring in a group of white vans last winter. After just one season of snow and salt, they had turned nearly gray. We performed full exterior details, restored the wheels and trim, and gave them a fresh, professional look again. Since then, they have brought them back every month.
What’s Included in Fleet Vehicle Detailing?
Every job is a little different depending on your fleet, but most of our detailing packages include the following:
✔️ Exterior Wash & Decontamination
We start with a foam wash and pH-safe soap to remove loose grime. Then we clay bar the surfaces to eliminate bonded contaminants like tar, brake dust, and bug residue. This leaves your paint clean, smooth, and ready for protection.
✔️ Interior Cleaning
We thoroughly vacuum, steam clean, shampoo, and sanitize all surfaces—seats, floors, cup holders, vents, dashboard, and cargo areas. Whether your fleet has coffee stains, food spills, smoke odors, or pet hair, we can take care of it. One pest control truck we worked on even had mouse traps under the seat—we are prepared for anything.
✔️ Tire & Trim Restoration
We clean and dress all tires and plastic trim with a non-greasy finish that holds up in the St. Louis rain and heat. It brings back a deep black look and prevents fading.
✔️ Engine Bay Cleaning (Optional Upgrade)
If your work trucks spend time at dusty job sites or sit outside, the engine bays can get filthy. We degrease and clean those areas to help everything run cooler and look better when opened.
✔️ Ceramic Coating (Optional Upgrade)
Want to keep your fleet easier to wash and protected longer? We can apply ceramic coating to paint, wheels, windows, and headlights. This adds a layer of protection that repels dirt and helps the vehicles stay cleaner between washes.

We do not offer mobile detailing at this time, so vehicles must be dropped off at our shop. We have the space and tools to handle multiple vehicles efficiently and get them back to you quickly.
That depends on how your vehicles are used. If your team is on the road daily and visiting muddy job sites, we recommend monthly or bi-monthly detailing. For sales or service vehicles that stay mostly clean, every 2–3 months is usually fine.
Some clients choose a lighter clean once a month and a full deep-clean detail every few months. We can help you build a custom plan that fits your needs and budget.
How Often Should You Detail Your Fleet?
Is Ceramic Coating Worth It for Fleet Vehicles?
If you want to save time and money on maintenance in the long run—yes, it is worth it.
Ceramic coating makes the paint slick, which means dirt, bugs, bird droppings, and salt will not stick as easily. That helps your fleet stay cleaner between washes and makes future washing much faster.
We recently coated a group of landscaping trucks from Sunset Hills. Before ceramic coating, they needed to be washed every week. Now, they only need a light wash every couple of weeks—and they look great doing it.
Keep Your Investment in Good Condition
Fleet vehicle detailing is not just about aesthetics—it is about protecting your investment. Dirty vehicles wear down faster. Faded paint, stained seats, and cracked dashboards lead to repair costs and lower resale value. And let’s be honest—no one wants to start their shift inside a dirty, smelly truck.
We can help you prevent all that and keep your team feeling good about the vehicles they drive.
If your company trucks, vans, or cars need attention, give us a call or request a quote online. Whether you have 3 vehicles or 30, we can help build a plan that works for your schedule, your budget, and your brand.
