When heavy paving work wraps up on a busy commercial site, the job isn’t truly finished until the surface is clean, clear, and safe to use. That’s where our commercial sweeping team comes in. On a recent project in Peoria, IL, we were called to handle post-milling cleanup for a large industrial property that needed to be ready for continued paving and striping.
A Closer Look at the Job Site
The property had undergone recent milling, which left behind thick layers of loose asphalt, fine dust, and scattered debris across the lot. Our client wanted the area cleared quickly so crews could continue with resurfacing and finishing work without delay.
For a property of this size, traditional sweeping methods wouldn’t cut it. The sheer volume of reclaimed asphalt meant the cleanup required high-performance commercial sweepers built for industrial-scale projects.
As seen in the photo, one of our MARK III sweepers was hard at work collecting and depositing fine asphalt material into piles. This step is crucial for controlling dust, maintaining visibility, and preventing loose gravel from being tracked into finished sections of pavement.
Tackling Heavy Debris with Precision
The biggest challenge on this site was the sheer amount of milling residue.
Asphalt fines can compact quickly under traffic, making them difficult to remove once they settle. Our crew began by sectioning the property and systematically sweeping each area to capture every layer of debris. Using our heavy-duty equipment, we gathered large quantities of reclaimed material without disrupting nearby paving activity.
Peoria’s warm, sunny weather worked in our favor, helping the surface stay dry so our sweepers could achieve a thorough clean. The outdoor lighting also made it easy for our team to inspect the surface visually and ensure no loose material remained behind.
Results You Can See
After several rounds of sweeping and inspection, the site was completely cleared of asphalt dust and debris. The client appreciated how quickly the cleanup was handled and how efficient our team was in working alongside other trades on site.
The result: a smooth, debris-free lot that was ready for the next phase of work without any delays.
We take pride in these kinds of projects because they show how much difference precision cleanup makes in the overall success of a paving job. From commercial parking lots to large industrial facilities, we make sure every site we sweep is safe, clean, and fully prepared for use.
