Facility Management Vehicle Solutions

To handle routine, preventive, or even unexpected repairs around a facility, a well-equipped building maintenance truck or van setup — sometimes with the help of a trailer — can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A custodian should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally like hand tools, power tools, extension cords, rechargeable batteries, ladders, step stools, portable toolboxes, maintenance carts, lighting, work wear and safety gear. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as lightbulbs, batteries, fasteners, lubricants, sealants, adhesives, paint, replacement hardware, HVAC filters, electrical and plumbing parts, and any items for fixing or finishing walls, ceilings or floors.

To keep spaces clean, tidy and stocked with supplies, a well-equipped cleaning truck or van setup — sometimes with the help of a trailer — can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A janitor should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally, including items like brooms, dust pans, cleaning cloths, mops, buckets, squeegees, vacuums, dusters, brushes, spray bottles, sponges, grabbers, floor buffers, carpet cleaners, floor signage, carts and caddies. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as cleaning chemicals, paper products, trash bags, soaps, room fresheners, gloves, spill absorbents and floor sweeping compound.

To care for lawns or plants, remove litter, maintain walkways, parking lots or other outdoor features, a well-equipped groundskeeping truck or van setup — sometimes with the help of a trailer — can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A groundskeeper should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally, including items like mowers, trimmers, rakes, hoes, pruners, shovels, snow and leaf blowers, chainsaws, wheelbarrows, tillers, sprayers, pressure washers, seed and salt spreaders and watering hoses or cans. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as seed, fertilizer, mulch, soil, compost, plants, pest and weed control chemicals, trash bags, fuel, oil and any replacement parts.

To prevent, manage or remove unwanted insects, rodents or other wildlife on a property, a well-equipped pest control truck or van setup — sometimes with the help of a trailer — can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A pest control technician or exterminator should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally, including items like handheld or backpack sprayers, dust applicators, foggers, foamers, bait guns, respirators, gloves, goggles, protective suits, ladders, cages and various inspection tools. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as insecticides, rodenticides, traps, bait stations, repellents, animal barriers and entry sealants.

To protect property, people and assets within and around facilities, a well-equipped security truck or van setup can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A security professional should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally, including items like radios, laptops, tablets, phones, flashlights, cameras, binoculars, protective gear, traffic cones, weapons and any other gear for communication, surveillance and safety. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as spare batteries, procedural documentation, reporting logbooks, notepads, pens, first aid kits, hygiene items, food or beverages.

To relocate assets from spaces in a facility to elsewhere, a well-equipped moving truck or van setup — sometimes with the help of a trailer — can provide better storage, organization, access, and protection for a range of cargo. A space or asset manager should think about the work tools and equipment they use regularly and occasionally, including items like furniture and appliance dollies, totes and crates, lifting straps, moving blankets, pallet jacks, ratchet straps, ladders, ramps and any other gear that may be necessary for assembling or dismantling room contents. Every job is different, but it’s always a good idea to consider any materials and supplies that may ever be aboard, such as moving boxes, bubble wrap, stretch wrap, packing tape, labels, tags, pens and markers.
