I use a hand broom to get most of the dust and dirt on the floor, it gets most of it, and I have a sponge mop and an oval bucket that doubles as my trash can, I mop it out once a month or so. Spray Nine for surfaces, glass cleaner for the windows.

When I was an OTR company driver with my own assigned truck? I cleaned it once with a shop vac and wipes as I was turning it in.
I already did enough unpaid work, and was mediocrely compensated for the paid work. Not gonna happen. I was never a slob about it, but...that was just my attitude.
Now that I have a job I'm proud of? Wipedown and wash every single day. Shiny.Lumper Humper Thanks this. -
Oh, and I never washed the outside once. Thats what rain was for. Lol
And honestly, it never looked bad in spite of that. Still a pumpkin truck.Lumper Humper Thanks this. -
Towels under the floor mats, no shoes in the bunk. Pedals and dash wiped down. Little to no dirt in the cab.

The wash bay guys do it

I bought a little 12v vacuum off Amazon. It works good to get the dust off my carpet, but I have to brush the stones out the door with a brush. For the dashboard I use this stuff. It works amazing, BUT, make sure both your windows are down or your doors are open when you use it, or you'll get a wicked headache. Oh, and do not get it on your steering wheel or pedals because your hand and feet won't get any grip. The first time I used it, I sprayed it on my clutch pedal and when I went to put the truck in gear my foot slid right off and got jammed up underneath the dash

My wife's got it taken care of usually before I even notice that it needs cleaning.
One thing that definitely helps is that my shoes, or boots when doing flatbed stuff in the mud, never gets past the drivers seat. Also it helps to have a shoe scrubber thing mounted outside and even a refillable gallon of water to wash off mud+ a shop towel on the floor by the door.joshuapowell61 Thanks this. -
I suppose it's time to clean mine. You guys are making me feel bad
Lightning01 Thanks this. -

Bout once a month turn the shop air hose lose on the inside. Wipe everything down. Soak in armor all and wipe with a brush. Lay bath towel in floor. Just shake out regularly. Stays looking good for long time.
