Parking Lot Cleaning

MKD Janitorial Parking Lot Cleaning

First impressions matter, but for a commercial property manager or strata board, keeping a parkade clean is mostly about safety, pavement maintenance, and tenant satisfaction. Oil drips, loose gravel, winter salt build-up, and accumulated litter wear down line painting, clog drainage systems, and create unnecessary slip hazards.

At MKD Janitorial, we take parking structure and lot maintenance off your plate. Whether you manage a high-density residential parkade with low overhead clearance or a busy open-air retail plaza, we provide scheduled sweeping, pressure washing, and deep scrubbing that fits your building’s workflow.


Why Property Managers Trust MKD Janitorial

The biggest headache when hiring a power washing or sweeping vendor is operational disruption. Blocked entrances, loud equipment during peak business hours, or dust blowing onto tenant vehicles cause instant complaints. We plan around your operations so the work gets done thoroughly with zero friction:

  • Off-peak and overnight shifts: We work around your tenants and customers. Choose from evening, overnight, or weekend shifts so parking spaces stay available when your property needs them most.
  • Active traffic coordination: Our crews section off work zones systematically, keeping drive aisles open and vehicles moving safely throughout the job.
  • Responsible waste collection: We don’t just push dirt around or wash heavy grease into stormwater drains. All litter, gravel, and sediment are collected, loaded into our tilt trucks, and hauled off-site properly.
  • Insured and safety-trained crews: Our technicians follow strict site safety protocols to protect your building’s curbs, line striping, lighting, and infrastructure while on site.

Our Step-by-Step Cleaning Process

Every property has different layout constraints. An underground concrete parkade needs a different approach than an asphalt shopping center lot. Here is how we execute each job:

  1. Site Review & Scheduling: We check your property layout, note low-clearance areas, drainage points, and dumpster pads, then lock in a schedule that avoids your peak traffic hours.
  2. Bulk Debris Clearance: Before turning on sweepers or water lines, we manually clear out large trash, fallen branches, cigarette butts, and loose gravel from perimeter walls and fence lines.
  3. Detail Blower Work: Sweeping trucks can’t reach behind bollards or inside tight corners. We manually blow out all curb lines, pedestrian walkways, and individual parking stalls.
  4. Pressure Washing & Floor Scrubbing: We break down stubborn oil drips, tire marks, and heavy grease near garbage enclosures using industrial floor scrubbers and commercial pressure washers.
  5. Compactor & Bin Pad Washdown: Waste areas get dirty fast. We wash down exterior bin pads and deodorize heavy-use compactor areas to keep odors under control.
  6. Haul-Off & Final Walk: We check drain basins to ensure no sediment clogs the lines, load all collected waste into our trucks, and leave the property clean and ready for traffic.

Equipment Built for Commercial Job Sites

Using residential-grade equipment or hand brooms on a multi-level parkade is a waste of time. MKD Janitorial uses professional equipment sized for commercial properties:

  • Low-profile ride-on and walk-behind power sweepers designed to fit into tight underground parkades with low height clearances.
  • High-PSI power washers with hot water capabilities for tough oil stain extraction.
  • Industrial floor scrubbers and wet/dry vacuums for deep surface cleaning.
  • Commercial tilt trucks for fast, high-volume trash and debris transport.
  • Biodegradable degreasers that break down grease safely without damaging local drainage systems.
