I can almost guarantee you that if you did that long enough, sooner or later someone will call the EPA or other local Water Quality board and you will be fined, likely jailed for a time, and then taken to court for introducing hazardous waste into the local water supply or storm drain system without a water collection and treatment system.
I know this sounds ridiculous but it's a reality today. You don't hardly see mobile wash operations any more because of all the local/state permits and equipment and reporting requirements involved, most of these making such an operation unfeasible (illegal in the eyes of the local regulating authority)
Somehow, water [and runoff] and the act of "cleaning" and moving "unknown contaminates" onto the ground and possibly eventually into the local water supply, attracts a lot of unwanted attention. So states/communities don't even allow hand washing your car on your driveway or in the street and having nothing to do with water restriction due to drought, but rather having to do with run-off and contaminates.Mtn Gal, spyder7723 and Everett Thank this. -
Yes it is called SWPPP. Just gotta keep it on the downlow. No witnesses type of thing. I like how the truck stops have huge pressure washers on standby and once a week or more send their guy out to pressure wash all the spilled diesel off the diesels islands to make it look like fresh clean concrete. All that diesel, acid soap and contaminated water ends up at the municipal treatment plant and cycled back to the drinking supply.
Everett Thanks this. -

They don't get all the dirt out , just surface

What idea was the presure washer.

But if you watched Mythbusters, most of those drains have grease traps and
Your water tank and pressure washer will be a royal pain in the winter with the freezing temps.
But then it would suck to have to drive to a trailer washout, get a dry van -
