Wheel Wash Hire in the UK

Wheel wash hire is a practical solution for UK construction sites that need to prevent mud and debris from being carried onto public roads. A temporary wheel wash cleans vehicle wheels before exit, helping contractors comply with UK construction site regulations without investing in permanent equipment.

MobyDick provides wheel wash hire and wheelwash hire solutions for temporary and short-term construction projects across the UK, including drive-through systems designed for heavy vehicles and high traffic volumes.

What Is Wheel Wash Hire?

Wheel wash hire involves renting a wheel wash system for the duration of a construction project. These systems are installed at site exits to clean lorry and truck wheels before vehicles enter public roads.

Wheel wash hire is commonly used on:

• Temporary construction sites
• Infrastructure and roadworks projects
• Sites with changing access layouts
• Short-term or phased developments

Hiring a system allows contractors to remain compliant without long-term commitment.

When Is Temporary Wheel Wash the Right Choice?

A temporary wheel wash is ideal when:

• The project duration is limited
• Site access points change over time
• A permanent installation is not required
• Fast deployment is essential

Temporary wheel wash systems are designed to be installed quickly and removed once the project is complete, making them a flexible compliance solution.

Types of Wheel Wash Hire Solutions

Drive-Through Wheel Wash Hire

Drive-through systems allow vehicles to pass through the wheel wash at low speed while wheels are cleaned automatically. These systems are ideal for:

• High-traffic construction sites
• Large trucks and articulated lorries

Static Wheel Wash Hire

Static wheel wash systems require vehicles to stop briefly during cleaning. They are suitable for:

• Smaller construction sites
• Controlled traffic flow
• Limited space at site exits

Wheelwash Hire and UK Construction Site Compliance

A temporary wheel wash is often accepted by local authorities as a reliable compliance measure.

• Lower upfront costs compared to purchasing
