Industrial cleaning across Peterborough
Peterborough sits where the A1(M) meets the A47, which has made it a major centre for distribution and manufacturing. Its industrial land runs from Fengate and the Eastern Industrial Area to Orton Southgate and the large distribution sites at Gateway Peterborough on Alwalton Hill, near Junction 17. Many of these sites run around the clock, with high-bay racking, busy loading docks and production lines that can’t simply be switched off for a clean.
Locus Services cleans these buildings from the roof steelwork down to the floor. We’re based at Wicken in Cambridgeshire, close to Peterborough, and we work nights, weekends and shutdowns to keep your site moving.
Industrial cleaning: before and after
Sites we clean in Peterborough
Distribution warehouses
High-bay racking, roof steelwork, lighting and dock areas, cleaned zone by zone from MEWPs while the rest of the warehouse keeps working. See warehouse and factory cleaning.
Factories and production sites
Production halls, machinery surrounds, walls and the steelwork overhead. We plan the clean around production runs and planned shutdowns and follow your hygiene and safety rules.
Depots, workshops and plant rooms
Vehicle depots, workshops and plant rooms, where oil, dust and grime build up on floors, walls and equipment.
Tanks, pits and confined spaces
Tanks, pits, ducts and other enclosed spaces, cleaned by trained operatives under a confined space plan. See confined space cleaning.
Roofs, gutters and roof lights
Gutters, outlets and roof lights on large industrial roofs, cleared before blocked gutters start leaking into the building. See gutter cleaning.
High-level cleaning without stopping work
Dust and debris on roof steelwork, ducting and the tops of racking can fall onto stock, products and people below. Our IPAF-trained operatives clean at height from MEWPs, one aisle or zone at a time, and fence off the area underneath. See high level cleaning.
Where pigeons have got into a warehouse or roof void, we clear the guano safely and can fit proofing to keep them out. See pigeon guano removal.
How an industrial clean works
- Free site survey: we look at the work, the access, your operating hours and any hazards.
- RAMS and planning: you get risk assessments and method statements covering COSHH, PPE and work at height, and we agree the zones and order of work with you.
- Site rules: our crews complete your inductions and work under your permits to work.
- The clean: carried out zone by zone, with waste removed and recorded on waste transfer notes.
- Sign-off: we walk the site with you and leave completion records.
Floors that need more than a clean can be recoated and line-marked with factory floor painting. Read more about our industrial cleaning services.
