Our Standard Sanitation Service Turn: What You Can Expect

After the water crisis, we don't take clean for granted here in Flint. Our service turn for a standard construction unit is a full, hands-on process. We arrive on-site, and the first thing we do is pump the tank completely dry using our truck's vacuum system. We're not just emptying it; we're checking for any potential issues, a habit drilled into us after years of dealing with Michigan's freeze-thaw cycles that can stress fittings. Once it's empty, we flush the entire system with fresh water. Then comes the chemistry: we add our proprietary blend of odor control biocides and blue dye to the holding tank. This isn't a guess—we measure based on the tank's size and expected use. For a standard unit, we follow the guidelines in our OSHA 1926.51 compliance playbook, but we go a step further with extra disinfectant on all high-touch surfaces. We restock the toilet paper and hand sanitizer, secure the door, and make sure the unit is level and stable before we mark it 'serviced' on our route sheet. It's a system that works, rain or shine, whether we're servicing a site in Grand Traverse District or prepping for an event at Downtown Flint's Whiting.

  • We always start by checking the waste tank level and integrity before a single drop of chemical is added.
  • Our crew's trained to inspect every ventilation stack design for blockages, especially after a windy night in University Park.
  • A full internal wipe-down with hospital-grade disinfectant is mandatory—handles, walls, locks, you name it.
  • We pressure-wash the exterior and base to remove mud and prevent grime buildup.
  • The final step is a documented log entry with the time, unit ID, and our technician's initials.
