Accountability and Verification with Eagle Eye Tracking
Accountability is at the core of what we do. Our state-of-the-art, paperless process integrates with Eagle Eye Tracking, a sophisticated GPS-based system that provides real-time and archived tracking of our vehicles. This ensures that our clients receive detailed reports on every job—complete with time, duration, and proof of service. Whether it’s verifying our operators’ time on-site or ensuring accurate invoicing, we go the extra mile to provide complete transparency. Our certified operators adhere to the highest safety and environmental regulations, ensuring that the job is done right every time.
Operator Accountability, Communication & On-Site Standards
- Operator accountability: We hold ourselves to the highest professional standards on every job. Operator accountability is reinforced through strict protocols and technology. Each sweeper truck is GPS-tracked in real time, ensuring operators follow designated routes and schedules. This tracking data is not only used internally to verify performance but is also shared with clients for transparency – we can provide detailed GPS reports showing exactly when each location was serviced, with time-stamped route maps as proof of performance. This level of reporting gives our customers confidence that work is completed as promised, even during overnight operations.
- On-site standards: To maintain quality, our supervisors conduct random on-site inspections of sweeping jobs. Managers may arrive unannounced at job sites to audit work in progress, ensuring that every operator meets our on-site standards for thoroughness and safety. We enforce proper safety protocols: operators wear appropriate PPE, use vehicle safety lighting and signage, and adhere to site-specific speed limits and traffic control plans. No corners are cut – if an area is inaccessible to the sweeper truck, our crews will use backpack blowers or manual sweeping to clean curb lines, corners, and tight spots so the entire site is left spotless.
- Customer communication: Customer communication protocols are built into our process. If our operator encounters any on-site issues (like unexpected debris piles or blocked areas), they immediately notify a supervisor and the client contact to resolve it. We also practice proactive communication: when clients request additional services or special attention to an area, we make sure to address it and then follow up to confirm completion. This responsive, transparent approach ensures you’re never in the dark about your project’s status. Our paperless reporting process ensures timely, complete and accurate communication and billing for the services performed.
Our on-site conduct reflects our accountability. Operators arrive in uniform and marked vehicles, check in with site contacts as required, and abide by all facility rules. We document each service with digital logs and, if requested, before/after photos or service reports. By upholding strict on-site standards and open communication, we guarantee a hassle-free experience for our B2B clients – you can “set it and forget it,” trusting that our team will get the job done to specification and alert you to any important observations in the field.
Expert Street Sweeping for Challenging Job Sites | Dust Control, Debris Removal & Remote Access Solutions
The sweeping industry presents unique on-site challenges, and we’ve developed processes to meet them head-on.
Water Access & Dust Control
Water is essential for keeping dust down during sweeping, but remote job sites or long routes can make refilling a challenge. Our sweepers come equipped with large-capacity water tanks and efficient spray systems to maximize dust suppression coverage. We plan water logistics in advance – identifying nearby hydrants or bringing a support water truck to remote locations so our units can refill as needed. We also stay at the forefront of water-saving innovations. Modern dust control technology like water recirculation and smart spray nozzles helps minimize water use without sacrificing dust suppression. By leveraging these techniques, we conserve water and maintain dust control even on long-duration jobs, keeping your site compliant with air quality regulations.
Debris Handling & Disposal
Disposing of the collected debris is handled responsibly from start to finish. During operation, our sweepers can hold several cubic yards of material; for large projects, we station dump trucks or roll-off containers on site so our machines can off-load debris and continue working without delay. All sweepings – dirt, trash, leaves, asphalt millings – are transported to approved disposal facilities or recycling centers in accordance with local and state regulations. (Street sweeping debris is classified as solid waste and must be managed properly, not just dumped indiscriminately.) We dewater material when necessary and separate recyclables or compostable yard waste when feasible, reducing landfill impact. Our familiarity with municipal environmental rules means you don’t have to worry about compliance – we ensure that every pound of debris is disposed of legally and safely.
Remote Site Logistics
We excel at supporting projects in remote or logistically complex locations. Construction companies and municipalities often have sweeping needs on highways, rural developments, or large industrial sites far from city centers. We tackle the logistics of remote sweeping through careful planning: scheduling refueling stops or mobile fuel delivery, equipping crews with spare parts and contingency plans for mechanical issues, and allocating backup sweepers if a unit needs to leave for dumping so the job isn’t interrupted. Our operators are trained to be self-sufficient on distant sites, but they remain in constant contact via radio/mobile with supervisors. If a site lacks amenities, we arrange for crew needs like rest areas or coordinate with contractors on-site for support. Thanks to this preparedness, we can maintain continuous sweeping operations even in isolated areas. When you hire us for a project in a challenging location, we will have the plan, equipment, and team endurance to get it done on schedule.
By anticipating these industry challenges – water, waste, and logistics – we provide seamless service where other contractors might struggle. Our problem-solving approach means fewer surprises and delays for your project.
Advanced Street Sweeping Equipment & Technology for Cleaner, Safer Job Sites
Achieving superior results requires the right equipment. Our fleet features a range of modern sweeping trucks designed to handle different debris types and conditions:
- Mechanical Broom Sweepers: These rugged trucks use large rotating brushes to mechanically sweep heavy debris (dirt, gravel, millings, trash) onto a conveyor and into a hopper. Our mechanical broom sweepers are the workhorses for construction site cleaning, road milling cleanup, and fall leaf pickup – they can gobble up bulk material and larger debris that other sweepers might struggle with. For example, after asphalt milling, a mechanical sweeper will pick up the chunks of asphalt and gravel. (Mechanical broom sweepers may leave a fine dust film, so we often deploy a second air sweeper for a final fine sweep when absolute cleanliness is required.)
- Vacuum Sweepers: Our pure vacuum sweepers use high-powered suction to pull debris off the pavement and into the hopper, aided by gutter brooms and water spray for dust control. This design excels at removing fine particles like dust, sand, and light litter from uneven or porous surfaces where a broom might miss particles. Vacuum sweepers offer a “best of both worlds” versatility – they handle finer material more effectively than mechanical broom trucks and can even tackle moderate heavy debris better than regenerative air machines. They are ideal for parking garages, industrial sites, and urban streets where minimizing airborne dust is critical. We also equip some vacuum units with optional hoses for tasks like catch basin cleaning or vacuuming up windrows of debris.
- Broom-Vac Combination Units: For maximum efficiency on varied debris, we deploy combination sweepers that integrate both a broom and a vacuum system in one unit. These hybrid trucks can sweep up heavier debris with a mechanical brush and simultaneously vacuum finer dust, performing a one-pass thorough cleaning. Broom-vac combinations are perfect for jobs with mixed debris types – for instance, a municipal festival cleanup with trash, cups, and powdery dirt all together. By combining mechanical and vacuum actions, these units deliver a comprehensive clean without needing multiple passes. They are truly jack-of-all-trades machines that give us great flexibility on complex jobs.
- Regenerative Air Sweepers: Our regenerative air machines use an advanced closed-loop air system to achieve high-efficiency street sweeping. A regenerative air sweeper blasts air down onto the pavement to dislodge fine particles and debris, then immediately vacuums the air and debris up into the hopper (passing the air through filters and reusing it). This “air knife” technique can pull dirt from crevices and remove the finest silts and dust that other sweepers might leave behind. The result is an exceptionally clean surface with minimal dust left on the road. We rely on regenerative air sweepers for municipal sweeping and any project where environmental cleanliness or stormwater pollution prevention is a priority – these machines can meet strict PM10 dust control standards. (Because pure air sweepers have slightly less brute force for large debris, we often pair them with a broom sweeper if there is heavy material, using the regenerative air unit to finish the job and collect remaining fine dust.)
All our sweepers are outfitted with water spray systems for dust suppression and high-dump hoppers where applicable (allowing disposal of collected debris into dump trucks or containers on site). We invest in leading-edge technology for our equipment: many of our trucks feature advanced filtration systems to trap ultrafine particles (some incorporate HEPA-quality filters to capture fine dust and prevent airborne pollution), as well as telematics and 360° camera systems for safety. Our newer models include upgrades such as enhanced dust separators and noise-reduction technology, contributing to cleaner and quieter operation. By maintaining a modern, diverse fleet, we ensure the right tools are used for each job – whether it’s a rough construction haul road or a downtown city street – and that the work is completed efficiently, thoroughly, and in line with the latest environmental and safety standards.
Why Our 100s of Indiana Clients Trust Us
Local Expertise
With over 45 years of experience, we understand Indiana’s unique needs. Our operators are all 100% certified sweepers, thoroughly trained and mentored, and committed to delivering results that meet and exceed local standards.
Training, Safety and Mentorship Program
At the heart of our quality service is a comprehensive operator training and mentorship program. We recruit reliable individuals and then invest heavily in their development to become skilled sweeping professionals. Every new operator undergoes thorough training that covers all aspects of the job: Standard Operating Procedures, daily equipment checklists, proper machine operation, basic troubleshooting, routine maintenance, and safety protocols. This training is both classroom and hands-on. New hires learn how to handle support equipment like backpack blowers and how to efficiently sweep various layouts (for example, how to blow out corners and then sweep a parking lot in an optimal pattern). They are taught to maximize productivity without rushing – e.g. maintaining an efficient sweeping speed that cleans effectively but respects the equipment’s limits.
Safety training is paramount. Operators are educated on hazard identification, defensive driving, and jobsite communication, so they can safely work around active construction activities or traffic. Before operating solo, each trainee must demonstrate competence in equipment controls and emergency procedures (such as safely handling a hydraulic or water system failure). Our program doesn’t stop at initial training: we pair less experienced operators with senior mentors and supervisors who continue to coach them in the field. During a new operator’s first weeks on a route, a supervisor closely monitors their work and provides feedback to fine-tune technique and ensure our standards are met. We also leverage tools like GPS feedback to improve training – for instance, analyzing the route pattern data to suggest more efficient approaches if needed.
Our commitment to ongoing education keeps the team sharp. We encourage and support industry certifications such as the North American Power Sweeping Association’s Certified Sweeper Operator program and related courses. Operators regularly attend safety meetings and skills workshops, and we share knowledge gained from conferences or the latest industry publications. The result is a crew that is not only licensed and qualified, but truly expert in modern sweeping techniques and equipment care. High operator competency translates to fewer mistakes, less downtime, and top-quality results for our clients. When you see our crew on site, you can trust that each member has been rigorously trained and is continuously mentored to perform at their best.
Team-Driven Sweeping Services with Accountability, Camaraderie & Crew Integration
At Progressive Sweeping, what truly sets us apart is our strong, accountability-driven team culture. Power sweeping can be solitary and demanding work—often done during off-hours—so we’ve built a supportive environment that fosters camaraderie, mutual respect, and peer-to-peer accountability. Our operators, mentors, and supervisors function as a cohesive unit where each person’s work impacts the next. This encourages every crew member to take personal responsibility for maintaining high standards. If one operator cuts corners, a teammate will bear the burden the next day. That’s why our team takes pride in doing the job right—because collective success, client satisfaction, and clean, safe sites are wins we all share. As one industry veteran put it, “we may own the company and be the bosses, but we’re all a team working for the same goals.” We live by that principle.
Our crews seamlessly integrate with construction, municipal, and paving projects. With many operators coming from construction or public works backgrounds, they understand jobsite flow and hierarchy. Our sweeping professionals communicate effectively with paving crews, milling teams, and traffic control, adapting in real-time to schedule changes and worksite needs. This minimizes disruption and maximizes efficiency, making our presence feel like an extension of your own staff. Internally, we strengthen this culture through ongoing mentorship, team meetings, and hands-on leadership. The result? Reliable, high-performing crews who take pride in delivering top-tier sweeping services with professionalism, precision, and respect for your goals.
