Equipment Needs Guidelines

Establishing a licensed CWS concrete washout operation requires appropriate equipment for the following processes:

  • On-site concrete waste washout requires patented CWS bins

  • Removal of excess water from bins on-site requires a vacuum system or vacuum truck

  • Treatment of wastewater requires CWS water treatment system or a similar solution. Delivery and pick-up of bins requires a roll-off truck (most standard configurations are acceptable)

  • Pressure washing of bins and liners preferably a concrete wash pad with environmentally compliant wastewater containment
