Four Considerations To Make When Choosing Your Road Sweeping Contractor

As a commercial property owner or decision-maker for a municipality, you must be painstakingly diligent in deciding how you spend your budget. With every investment of these funds comes the responsibility of acquiring the service the gives you the best available return.

One service you'll be charged with procuring is a street cleaning contractor. In this instance, responsible, intelligent, and return-focused spending is of the essence.

If you aren't 100% sure of what goes into choosing high-performing road sweeping contractors, read on, and learn four critical traits these organizations should possess:


1. Road Sweeping Companies Need High-End Equipment and Manpower

If a company genuinely cares about the services that they provide, they're willing to back it up with their chequebook.

More specifically, what kind of team and equipment is the company using for its parking lot and street sweeping services? Quality road cleaning services can't be provided with bargain-basement equipment and an undermanned team.

At A&G, for instance, we only utilize premiere street sweepers that have been newly outfitted with state-of-the-art specifications. We also match quality with quantity, as there are over 80 sweepers in our fleet.


2. Street Sweeper Contractors Must Be Reliable

Cleaning surrounding streets has a significant impact on both public safety and how potential customers view your business. These are just a couple reasons why you need professional street cleaners for your commercial property.

The importance of street sweepers can't be understated. Your choice of road sweeping contractor must fully appreciate the responsibility and high stakes involved in these contracts.

Meaning, they're available at the drop of the dime, especially during an emergency. Plus, they'll get the job done with proficiency, professionalism, and painlessness.

From the moment you hire a street sweeper, you should have peace of mind knowing that the situation is under control, no matter how urgent or demanding the circumstances.


3. Street Sweeping Companies Must Prioritize Safety

Most companies in the street sweeping industry are going to bandy about the notion that they're focused on safety.

You need to know better. As a client, don't just take a company's word for it. Perform your due diligence. The organization and its fleet of drivers must have all the necessary licensing and certification required to perform each job with safety as a top priority.


4. Road Cleaners Should Have a History of Success

Yes, just because a company has only been around a short time, doesn't mean it won't provide fantastic services.

Still, who are you going to trust with your precious budget: A company that's been around for a hot minute, or one that's been around for four decades?

A proven track record shows that your road cleaner has amassed an impressive resume and thrived for enough time to earn your trust.


Your commercial property or municipality deserves the dedicated services of one of the top street sweeping companies in Toronto, such as A&G's exceptional road cleaning team. We'd love a chacne to chat so you can learn more.
