Portable Wash Bays for Cleaner, Safer Agricultural Operations

Agricultural operations across Australia rely on heavy-duty machinery, vehicles, and equipment that must remain clean, compliant, and operational. A portable wash bay is the fastest, most cost-effective way to manage heavy equipment cleaning while meeting environmental regulations and EPA standards. Need a wash bay installed in days, not months? WashBay HQ delivers 100% above-ground modular wash bays and oil water separators that treat wastewater, remove hydrocarbons, and help you achieve compliance without civil works or council delays.

Every day you delay installation increases risk—the case of EPA fines can exceed $500,000, and a non-compliant wash bay could lead to shutdowns or heavy penalties. WashBay HQ ensures your farm stays compliant, clean, and efficient with turnkey solutions designed for Australia’s toughest conditions.

Take control of your wash bay compliance today—don’t wait for a costly EPA case to remind you what’s at stake. WashBay HQ’s modular systems combine oil water separators, treatment units, and recycling technology to deliver complete environmental solutions for managing heavy equipment washdown and water discharge. Protect your farm, safeguard the land, and stay ahead of regulations. Contact WashBay HQ now for a tailored solution that keeps your operation clean, compliant, and future-ready.

Stay Clean, Stay Compliant: Modular Wash Bays for Modern Agriculture

WashBay HQ’s modular wash bays are engineered for agricultural sites needing fast, relocatable, and compliant systems. Built from hot-dip galvanised steel and designed to handle heavy loads (from 1T cars to 100T+ machinery), these wash pads capture wastewater, separate oil, diesel, and solids before water treatment.

Key Benefits:

Install in days, not months—no civil works, approvals, or excavation

Relocatable between farms, depots, or seasonal operations

Compliant with EPA, AS/NZS, ISO 9001, and environmental standards

Handles all vehicle wash applications: tractors, trucks, harvesters

Integrates with oil water separators, holding tanks, and pumps

Wash Bay Specifications

Feature Specification
Flow rate 1,500 L/h, 3,000 L/h, or 6,000 L/h

The wash bay system uses gravity separation and tube coalescing media to lift oil droplets and free oils from the waste stream. Combined with float switches, skimmers, and submersible pumps, it ensures high water quality for discharge or recycling.

Our wash bays are ideal for any specific case, from mechanical workshops to industrial farms and equipment cleaning stations where wastewater must be controlled and treated on-site. With no excavation, no concrete pits, and full portability, you stay operational and compliant anywhere in Australia.

No matter the case—from remote farms to high-traffic depots—WashBay HQ delivers a complete system that captures, cleans, and reuses water while meeting strict environmental standards. Each modular wash bay integrates advanced oil separator units and precision treatment technology to ensure every drop is safe for recycling or compliant discharge. Protect your operation, reduce waste, and stay audit-ready year-round. Contact WashBay HQ today for a tailored wash bay solution built to perform anywhere in Australia.

Oil Water Separators that Protect Your Farm Equipment and Environment

Agricultural operations generate oily wastewater from equipment wash-downs, fueling, and workshops. Without proper treatment systems, contaminants enter stormwater, harming the environment and risking non-compliance.

WashBay HQ’s oil water separators use vertical tube coalescing (VTC) technology to remove hydrocarbons, waste oil, and emulsified oil from wash water. They are engineered for heavy-duty use, ensuring EPA-approved separation.

Portable wash bay with oil water separator

System Features

  • Flow rates up to 6,000 L/h
  • Stainless steel or galvanised steel tanks
  • Diaphragm and electric pumps for automatic operation
  • Float switches, manual controls, and electrical controllers
  • Plate separators and tube coalescing media for efficient oil removal from wash water

The water treatment system separates oil, solids, and water into distinct tanks, preventing pollutants from entering stormwater systems. Oil rises to the surface, collected by skimmers or pumps, while treated water can be recycled or discharged per authority standards.

Advantages

  • Ensures environmental compliance across all sites
  • Protects farm water sources and soil health
  • Extends equipment life by removing oily residues
  • Reduces manual cleaning and downtime
  • Fully compliant with EPA and local authority requirements

Every wash bay and oil water separator system includes documentation, Form 15 certificates, and trade waste support, ensuring smooth approvals and audit readiness.

Stay Compliant: EPA and Biosecurity Solutions for Agriculture

Non-compliant wash bays could shut your site down tomorrow. Environmental regulations in Australia require every wash bay to treat wastewater before discharge. WashBay HQ delivers approved wash bay and oil water separator systems designed to meet EPA, biosecurity, and trade waste conditions.

Our Compliance Approach

No civil works = no council permit delays

Documentation provided: trade waste, stormwater, WH&S, Form 15

Biosecurity protection: prevents the spread of weeds and soil pathogens

Authority-approved for unroofed, roofed, or temporary wash stations

We understand farm operations face strict EPA audits, biosecurity inspections, and waste management rules. Our systems handle wash water, diesel residues, chemical contaminants, and solids while maintaining full compliance.
