 I checked three car wash's, these trucks are too tall . the self wash's are tall enough but the wand's are no where near long enough. Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | ||

Truck washes, like those at truck stops for 18 wheelers. RV washes, which some RV dealers and RV campgrounds have. And/or ladders or stepstools plus an extended brush. I have a folding metal platform, like what's shown below, that I use to hand wash and wax the tops of my vehicles. (But they're not as tall as that van.)  | |||

I use a small stepladder to do the top of our Flex, which is a fair bit shorter. I'd think stepladder + cleaning apparatus on an extendo pole for these extra high vans. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Why would one worry about washing the 'top' of these vans? No one will ever see that area (unless they're flying overhead  ). If it was a priority, I think I'd climb a 6' ladder, spray it down with my foam cannon, let it dwell for a bit, then spray it off with my pressure washer and call it a day.----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

Well duh, it’s a modern world, use a drone! Of course you’ll need the optional wishy washy attachment that attaches to the bottom of the drone. And with the rotor downdraft it dries quickly. . | |||

Ladder. I have to use something similar to what Rogue posted above to wash the top of my truck. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

Most people who have work vans also have ladders. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Brushes on extension poles. Like these Shurhold products, they extend in 1' increments. They have poles that extend from 5-9' and a longer one that that is around 6'-12' or something like that. Shurhold has many attachments for it's poles (wash mitts, brushes, chamois mops, etc. etc.) and the preferred brand in the marine industry. This with one of the ladders shown by others. https://shurhold.com/collectio...ducts/new-boater-kit | |||

I use a five gallon bucket flipped over for my truck washing adventures...but I’m 6’1” and I use a brush on a mop handle to was my cars...so the bucket adds 2’ or so...

Contract it out. People will do a lot of things for money. Independent truckers can usually provide leads for you. They usually use a truck stop that has a platform with a wand. | |||
