Examples of Containment Methods
Choose a method based on the location, volume of water, and type of washing:
| Containment Method | Description |
| Storm Drain Covers | Weighted or magnetic mats create a seal over storm drains |
| Portable Berms | Flexible barriers that prevent water from flowing off-site |
| Wet/Dry Vacuums and Pumps | Collect water for off-site disposal |
| Wash Pads | Platforms like Latimat or Hydropad collect and direct runoff into holding areas |
| Vacuum & Filtration Systems | Systems that combine washing, vacuuming, and pollutant filtration in one step |
