What we do

What we do

Nationwide Curtain-sided Vehicle Deep Cleaning & Restoration

We provide nationwide mobile deep cleaning and restoration for curtain-sided vehicles and trailers, helping operators improve the appearance of heavily soiled curtain-sided vehicles and maintain cleaner, professional fleets across the UK.

Curtain-side Deep Cleaning

Our curtain-side deep cleaning service removes built-up dirt, grime and traffic film that standard washing often cannot remove. Ideal for heavily used vehicles, this process helps restore curtains to a cleaner, brighter and more presentable condition.

Ongoing Maintenance Support

Many customers combine annual deep cleans with regular maintenance washing to keep curtain-sides in better condition long-term. Ongoing cleaning helps prevent dirt becoming embedded in the curtain fabric and maintains a more consistent fleet appearance.

Annual Deep Cleaning 

Annual deep cleaning programmes are popular with fleets that use on-site brush washes throughout the year. These scheduled deep cleans help restore curtain-sides back up to standard, improving presentation and extending the overall appearance of the vehicle.

Why it matters

Why it matters

It’s More Than a Clean Truck. It’s About Fleet Standards and Brand Image.

Clean, well-presented vehicles help maintain a professional image and consistent fleet standards across your operation. Many customers use regular brush washing to clean vehicles day-to-day, alongside annual deep cleans to remove built-up grime and restore curtains back up to standard. This combined approach helps keep fleets looking cleaner, brighter and more professional long-term.

Maintain a Professional Brand Image

Many of our customers operate branded curtain-sided vehicles representing major companies across the UK. Keeping trailers clean, bright and presentable helps reinforce a professional image when arriving at customer sites and ensures fleets continue to reflect the standards of the businesses behind them.

Keep Fleet Standards Clean and Consistent

Annual curtain-side deep cleans help restore vehicles back up to standard where dirt and grime have built up over time. Combined with regular maintenance washing or on-site brush washing, this helps maintain cleaner, more consistent fleet standards across the entire operation.

Trusted by Leading Fleet Operators

We support national transport companies, supermarket fleets and large distribution operators across the UK with curtain-side deep cleaning and restoration. Our service helps fleets maintain presentation standards, improve overall appearance and keep vehicles looking their best on the road.

Proof in Practice: Tesco

Restoring Fleet Standards Through Nationwide Curtain-side Deep Cleans

We supported Tesco with a nationwide programme of curtain-side deep cleans and restoration, helping improve the appearance of over 1,000 trailers across the UK. The project formed part of a wider fleet image programme designed to restore heavily soiled curtains back up to a cleaner, brighter and more consistent standard.

Our deep cleaning process removed built-up grime and contamination that regular brush washing alone could not fully restore. Once completed, Tesco’s on-site wash systems were then able to maintain the improved appearance moving forward.

Working around busy operational schedules, our mobile teams carried out the programme nationwide while helping minimise disruption to the fleet.

“I would highly recommend Truck Smart to any company wanting to improve their fleet image. We approached Sam and the team with a large fleet cleaning project and were provided with an effective cleaning programme. Truck Smart worked around our busy schedule to deliver excellent results with the use of high-quality equipment and well-trained staff.”
