Alberta trailer wash

Hi. I'm new to the forum last year we had a older tent trailer to see if we liked camping, this year I upgraded to a 3150BHD. Well it is time to give it a wash and I'm lost on where to take it. If anyone is in the Edmonton area, where do you take it.
Thanks in advance
Barry

I just take mine to the driveway....I think a truck wash would be the best place...Can't help you with where in Edmonton though as I am an Southern Alberta guy

come to think of it....take it back to the dealer, they should be able to detail it for you

Welcome to the forum. Got a car wash near by or do it out in the street when you bring it to the house to get ready for a camping trip. Yep could take to dealer ut will pay a lot to get it done. Later RJD

Be careful using a pressure washer on trailers. Don't go at it like you do your vehicle. The pressure can do a number on your decals, on all your electrical parts or switches, etc. Some use a home pressure washer but they typically have less pressure then the commercial places.
I have gone away from a pressure washer and just use my garden hose and a brush now.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to check around and see if I can find a friend or something who has a drive way big enough. I don't like the idea of taking it to a place with a pressure washer. Love this forum.

Any truck wash will do nicely. Only one I have used near your area is the Big Toy carwash in St Albert.
