Industrial cleaning across Bedford and Bedfordshire
Most of Bedford’s industry sits on estates around the edge of the town: Manton Industrial Estate and Elms Farm Industrial Estate to the north, the Woburn Road Industrial Estate in Kempston, and newer logistics parks along the A421 towards Wixams. They hold factories, depots, workshops, trade counters and temperature-controlled stores, and many of them run around the clock.
Locus Services cleans industrial buildings across Bedfordshire, from production areas and plant rooms to cold stores and the roof steelwork above them. We’re based in Cambridgeshire, close to Bedford, and we work nights, weekends and shutdowns so your site keeps running.
Industrial cleaning: before and after
Sites we clean in Bedfordshire
Factories and production areas
Production floors, the walls and surfaces around machinery, and the steelwork, ducting and lighting overhead. We clean around your production runs or during a planned shutdown, and follow your hygiene and safety rules.
Cold stores, freezer rooms and refrigeration units
Chilled and frozen stores, including the wall- and ceiling-mounted refrigeration units, deep cleaned and sanitised with food-grade chemicals and disinfectants, often ahead of an audit. We plan the work around your stock and temperatures. See cold store cleaning.
Depots, workshops and plant rooms
Vehicle depots, workshops and plant rooms, where oil, grease and dust build up on floors, walls and equipment. Floors are scrubbed and degreased, and can be recoated and line-marked with factory floor painting.
Tanks, pits and confined spaces
Tanks, pits, sumps and ducts, cleaned by trained operatives under a confined space plan. See confined space cleaning.
Warehouses and distribution centres
Racking, docks and whole-building deep cleans, including empty units between tenants. See warehouse cleaning in Bedford.
Cleaning at height and on the roof
Dust on roof steelwork, ducting and lighting can fall onto products and production lines below. Our IPAF-trained operatives clean at height from MEWPs, one zone at a time, and fence off the area underneath. See high level cleaning.
On the roof, we clear gutters and outlets on large industrial roofs before they overflow into the building. See gutter cleaning.
Spills and hazardous clean-ups
When something goes wrong, such as a chemical spill, we clean it up and remove the waste as a registered waste carrier, with the paperwork to show it was disposed of properly. See hazardous cleaning.
How an industrial clean works
- Free site survey: we look at the work, the access, your operating hours and any hazards.
- RAMS: you get risk assessments and method statements covering COSHH, PPE and work at height before anyone starts.
- Site rules: our crews complete your inductions and work under your permits to work. Operatives can be DBS-checked where your site requires it.
- The clean: carried out zone by zone, with waste removed and recorded on waste transfer notes.
- Sign-off: you get completion records and before and after photos.
