You can look at purchasing an Envirochute two ways, you can either purchase a unit when regulations require. Or you can get ahead of the game and look at the Envirochute not only as a tool but a source of revenue!

Consider many producers are supplying washout bags to customers for $30 - $50.00 each, which leavesthe customer responsible for disposal. If you are seeing some acceptaince of this practive at this price point, consider this!< If you could negotiate a wash out fee of just 1/3 of that which is $10 per load. If that truck carries an average of 5 loads a day for 26 working days it will generate $1300.00 in revenue collected from wash out fees in one month. Another way to look at it would be to charge $1-2 washout fee per meter.

Once the unit is paid off, there is only profit to be realized. If this interests you, we would be happy to talk with you further and discuss what the Envirochute System can do for you and your fleet.
