Warehouses & Logistics, Melbourne.
Mechanical floor care, high-level dust control, dock-zone management and peak-season scaling for 3PL, retail distribution and storage facilities. Programs that hold under stocktake pressure and survive a fire compliance audit.
Dust on racking isn't a presentation issue. It's a fire risk.
Distribution warehouses operate under retail or 3PL contract performance standards. Dust accumulation on racking impacts WHS compliance, product integrity for sensitive freight, and fire risk. Sprinkler suppression systems are rated for clean racking only; a layer of warehouse dust changes the risk calculation in ways your insurer will notice.
High-level access requires EWP licensing and rope-access certification depending on rack height. Cleaning sequenced around inbound and outbound peak windows. The wrong contractor will quote a cheap monthly rate and skip the racks because they don't have the access plant. The right one builds the EWP into the program from day one.
The deliverable is a facility that passes a fire compliance audit and a retail principal audit, not one that only looks clean at slab level.
Built for the distribution floor.
Four operational pillars structure every warehouse contract. Tailored to rack height, floor area, freight type and peak-season pattern.
Racking dust-down to top beam
- Quarterly racking dust-down on EWP, every beam, every level
- Vacuum extraction (not air-blow) to capture dust at source
- Documented coverage map per visit, missed bays logged not glossed
- Sprinkler head and detector clean to fire-compliance spec
- Operator tickets current and verifiable on demand
Where soil and traffic concentrate
- Daily dock sweep across loading and unloading bays
- Monthly degrease of hydraulic dock plates and approach apron
- Quarterly line marking refresh, including aisle-edge clarity
- Tyre-mark removal program on polished concrete dock areas
- Spill response protocol for liquid freight or pallet leakage
Ride-on scrubber on a documented frequency
- Ride-on scrubber pass at agreed cadence (daily to fortnightly)
- Polished concrete restoration cycle, diamond burnish quarterly
- pH-neutral daily-clean chemistry, no etching of slab surface
- Joint cleaning, crack monitoring, sealant integrity check
- Floor condition report monthly, defects photographed and logged
Flex up for Q4, EOFY and stocktake
- Pre-arranged peak-season crew uplift without contract amendment
- Stocktake-event support: pre-count clean, post-count reset
- Q4 retail peak window: scaled cleaning to match throughput
- Shoulder-month scaling back, with documented cost adjustment
- Same crew faces during peaks, no agency churn on busy weeks
Aligned to your operating tempo.
Warehouse contracts are scoped per site. Racking height and floor area drive cost far more than service frequency, so a meaningful quote follows a walkthrough rather than a phone call.

Rack height and floor area drive cost more than frequency. Tier ranges would mislead. Pricing follows a site walk.
