AUSTIN STREET SWEEPING
How can BPI Environmental help you with your Street Sweeping needs?
Street sweeping is an important element to keeping our streets safe. BPI Environmental uses high power street sweepers to remove trash, debris, light dirt, dust and nails from roads and parking lots.
This service is great for developers, commercial business owners and municipal utility districts. In addition to streets, we can clean and sweep parking lots and parking garages.
MECHANICAL BROOM SWEEPER: Mechanical broom sweepers are designed specifically for sweeping behind milling machines while removing heavy debris. They allow you to get in where the milling machines have cut the asphalt for quick clean up. They have high dump capability so they never have to leave the job. Saves time and money.
What exactly is Street Sweeping and what does it entail?
During a thorough street sweeping, debris is removed from the streets using high-powered and professional equipment. Various tools and equipment may be used, including broom sweepers (which includes heavy debris sweeping and surface scrubbing), pickup sweepers (which pick up and carry away debris) and vacuum sweepers (which literally suck up debris into a reservoir until it can be disposed to at the proper time and place). Generally, the street is then scrubbed and rinsed using a professional street washing service.
Street Sweeping provides two primary benefits to any city. First is the collection and removal of paper, leaves and other visible debris that collect in gutters. This trash and debris can block storm water facilities, causing localized flooding during heavy rains. Second, street sweeping helps with the removal of metal particles and other hazardous waste products left by passing vehicles. Though virtually invisible, these particles can be extremely harmful to fish and other wildlife if they reach creeks, rivers, beaches and bays. |
