It's at St Leo, I think. I've used it and had good results.
Currently planning for retirement.....planning to build a small home in Nova Scotia for summers and someday year-round. Trying to sort out a good way to spend winters in central Florida as I can't drive anymore.

Have you seen the extension handles that allow people from the ground to pressure wash the second story of a house? They use a wand extension like that which has an adjustable end to move under the coach, and point up to the underside. Usually the pressure is reduced so as not to cause any damage, much like you do not point a 3000 PSI pressure washer at a window.

What I post is my 2 cents and nothing more. Please don't read anything into my post that's not there. If you disagree, that's OK.
Can't we all just get along?

Most all of the RV parks have a list of mobile wash guys that will come to your site and wash the coach. They will certainly do a better job of getting your coach clean than a truck wash. It will cost more.


If the mobile guy will pressure wash the underside of the coach to remove the salt from the chassis it will be a first for me. ๐Ÿ˜‰


Neither will a truck wash so I am not sure where you think he should get that done even if it was possible or desirable. The underside of my Class A is all foam. Just need to flush the wheel wells and the engine.


Well, the exit I recommended has a truck wash called the Wildwood truck wash that will pressure wash the chassis on a motor home.
I'm sure if you asked them nicely, they would avoid the foam areas. I don't know what the OP has for a chassis but I know on mine you can pressure wash the underside. .

And you don't KNOW that.....because you don't know what kind of a job that they ALL DO. You don't know the prices they all charge either.

When you get to exit 329, Wildwood, off of I-75, there is a truck wash station that should be able to wash your coach. This is where the Florida turnpike branches off.


These guys do a good job. I don't know about the underside though.

When we were in Florida last month, almost all of the do it yourself car washes had at least one bay tall enough for a MH or a trailer.
I was lucky enough to get into a campground that allowed washing on the pad. I washed both trailer and truck. There were also signs on the major highways for Blue Beacon truck washes that would wash RV's.
