About the Pit Crew
- Fact #1: The Pit-Crew has removed more than 10,000 tons – or the equivalent of 20,000 pick-up truckloads – of dirt from car washes!
- Fact #2: If you took the pickup truck loads of dirt that we have recycled and lined them up bumper to bumper… it would extend over 7 ½ miles.
- Fact #3: The Pit-Crew has saved customers up to 50% over their previous choice of waste removal/disposal.
The Pit-Crew: Putting you in the winners’ circle
After working in the environmental clean-up business for a dozen years, Travis Whittle recognized that car washes were getting the short end of the shovel, when it came to waste removal and disposal. All of the processes to remove and dispose of waste were designed for other types of controlled debris, like septic tanks, grease traps, oil water separators and even hospital waste, making them not particularly efficient or affordable for car washes. Even more importantly, they weren’t always safe for the environment.
In 1998, Travis founded The Pit-Crew to give car wash owners a more efficient, economical and environmentally safe option for debris removal and disposal. We’re the only company on the East Coast that cleans only car washes. All of our technicians are trained for it and our equipment engineered for it. Plus, we are innovators (see box on right side of page). The Pit-Crew is continually searching for better, more affordable ways to clean your pits and tanks. The focus of our business, is your business, 24/7.
With The Pit-Crew on your team, everyone’s a winner!
