*Confined space entry may be required for some cleaning scenarios.
Utilizing cutting-edge technology, ACT’s specialist crews clean your silos safely and effectively from the top, ensuring no damage to liners or bottoms.
Cleaning storage vessels during plant downtime is recommended preventive maintenance. This guarantees clean bunkers when the plant is offline, enhancing operational efficiency.
Material cleaned from bunkers seamlessly goes through your process, eliminating additional handling fees. With clean silos, bid farewell to material loss and unexpected downtime.
ACT’s Technicians excel in special whipping techniques for cleaning and are proficient in confined space cleaning when necessary. From boron to dry dog food, grain, and coke ash, we handle diverse silo contents.

Restoring capacity — no confined entry
Years of compacted material quietly eat storage capacity. Professional cleaning gives you back space you already paid for.
A plugged or slow-draining silo costs you money — in lost live storage, choked flow rates, and downtime. ACT has been in the silo cleaning business for 25 years, and our approach keeps workers out of unsafe conditions by positioning equipment safely on top of the silo.
Our whip system cleans from the top down — no confined space entry needed for most jobs* — restoring flow without damaging liners or bottoms.
Cleaning storage vessels during planned downtime keeps bunkers clean when the plant is offline — and paired with flow-aid products, keeps them from plugging again.
From boron to dry dog food, grain to coke ash — silos, bunkers, and storage vessels of every kind, cleaned with strategic technique to maximize flow and production.
*On occasion, confined space entry is required — determined during the proposal process.

Yes. Our Silo Whip technology works from the top of the silo, so our crews stay outside the vessel. That eliminates confined-space entry and the permits, standby crews, and safety risks that come with sending people inside.
Cement, clinker, coal, grain and feed, fly ash, and other bulk materials that bridge, rathole, or cake to silo walls — restoring full storage capacity and reliable discharge.
Falling usable capacity, erratic or slowing discharge, bridging above the outlet, and off-spec material are the usual signs of serious buildup. If you’re running air cannons more often just to keep material moving, it’s time.
We’ve been cleaning silos for more than 25 years, with MSHA and OSHA trained crews — including capacity-restoration projects for operations like Rio Tinto.
We’re based at 14644 El Molino Street in Fontana, California and serve plants across Southern California, with travel available for larger projects.
