Management should have intervened. A pressure washer and the associated noise wasn't needed to wash a RV when people are paying those outrageous prices to stay there.

However, I would have left and done something fun since you were at Disney.

I've never seen anyone travel with a db meter. That's a new one on me.

Give the governor's office a call. They'll straighten them out in a hurry.

Your 'governor' really has things straightened out also. Right ? SMH.

I carry one all the time. It’s called a smart phone. Don’t use it anymore but the app is still there.

Have to agree, loud noises are annoying, especially the thump, thump so called music.

I'm sure Disney is getting a piece of the detailers action. They wouldn't be in there otherwise.

Blue Beacon (or other) Truck Wash... we do it every year heading S from wintry north. It is pretty reasonable vs detailing.
I've washed my MH in many parks prohibiting it by inquiring if it would be OK using a couple buckets instead of a hose and never been turned down.
I will usually do a section at a time followed by a coat of polymer wax or spray wax as a touch up.

Hmm. When I had them come out to clean mine, they hooked up to camp water.

The op is getting some heat here but I agree with him. If a professional detailer comes into RV parks to wash rigs they should be respectful of others. If a pressure washer is required an electric powered one would be a good option.

It cracks me up that some parks have an age restriction. We are required to send a photo but a newer rig that hasn't been washed in a year and looks like it is acceptable. Yet they won't allow a guy to wash his rig.

My rig is older but we take bride in it's appearance. Truck wash is a good option. I leave our toad hooked up and have them hit it at the same time. It is an economical solution. Ever notice how clean and nice many 18 wheelers look?
