The Complete Guide to Mobile Fleet Valeting: Everything Corporate Clients Need to Know

From how the service works to what it costs, from environmental compliance to ESG reporting — this is the comprehensive guide to mobile fleet valeting for UK corporate decision-makers.

Mobile fleet valeting is one of the fastest-growing segments of corporate facilities management in the UK. Yet many fleet managers, procurement officers, and facilities directors have questions about how it works, what it costs, and whether it’s right for their organisation.

This guide answers every question.

What Is Mobile Fleet Valeting?

Mobile fleet valeting is a professional vehicle cleaning and protection service delivered at your premises. Rather than sending vehicles to a wash facility, trained technicians travel to your location with all necessary equipment and products.

MMCC’s service is fully waterless — using advanced polymer encapsulation technology instead of water — which eliminates environmental concerns and regulatory complications.

How Does It Work?

Scheduling

MMCC agrees a regular schedule with your fleet manager:

  • Weekly — ideal for client-facing and executive vehicles
  • Fortnightly — standard for most corporate fleets
  • Monthly — suitable for low-mileage or garaged vehicles

Visits happen at times that suit your operations — early morning, during business hours, evenings, or weekends.

On-Site Service

Technicians arrive in equipped MMCC vehicles. They work through the fleet systematically, vehicle by vehicle, following standardised processes for each service tier.

Reporting

After each visit, digital reports are uploaded to the Fleet Insight Platform. Fleet managers receive:

  • Service confirmation for each vehicle
  • 25-point condition inspection results
  • Photographs of any damage or concerns
  • Environmental data (water savings, service details)

Environmental Credentials

Water Usage

Zero. MMCC’s waterless technology uses no mains water. A typical fleet valeting programme saves 150–300 litres per vehicle per service.

Chemical Impact

All products are biodegradable. No contaminated run-off is generated. No trade effluent enters drainage systems.

Regulatory Compliance

Full compliance with:

  • Water Industry Act 1991 (no trade effluent)
  • Environmental Protection Act 1990 (no ground contamination)
  • Local authority environmental standards

ESG Reporting

MMCC provides documented environmental data including water savings, carbon reduction metrics, and chemical usage reports for sustainability reporting.

Insurance and Security

  • £5M public liability insurance — covering all on-site work
  • DBS-checked technicians — every team member verified
  • Motor trade insurance — vehicles covered whilst in MMCC’s care

Frequently Asked Questions

Is waterless cleaning safe for paint? Yes. Polymer encapsulation is gentler on paint than pressure washing or automated brushes. The process lifts and wraps dirt particles rather than dragging them across the surface.

Can you handle heavily soiled vehicles? Yes. Pre-treatment solutions address heavy contamination before the standard waterless process. Clay bar decontamination handles extreme cases.

What about winter road salt? Road salt is a primary target. Regular waterless valeting removes salt deposits before they cause corrosion — which is especially important during winter months.

Do you work in the rain? Light rain doesn’t affect waterless valeting. Heavy rain or adverse weather may require rescheduling — MMCC communicates proactively if this occurs.

What areas do you cover? MMCC operates across London and the Home Counties, with established client routes throughout Surrey, Greater London, and surrounding areas.

How quickly can you start? From initial enquiry to first service visit typically takes two weeks.
