Street Sweepers – the “Silent Weapon” That Keeps Urban Life Moving During the Rainy Season

The rainy season in major cities not only brings flooding, but also leads to the accumulation of waste, mud, and fallen leaves on roads, disrupting traffic and negatively affecting urban aesthetics. After heavy rain, urban street sweepers become the “silent weapon” that helps cities remain clean, safe, and fully operational.

What really happens on the streets after the rain?

• Leaves, waste, sand, and soil are washed onto road surfaces, causing slippery conditions and blocked drainage systems

• Increased risks to traffic safety, along with unpleasant odours, bacteria, and mosquitoes

• Greater difficulty for sanitation workers operating outdoors in wet, slippery, and hazardous conditions

Cities need a solution that is strong – durable – proactive. And that solution is none other than specialised urban street sweepers.

Why are street sweepers the “silent warriors” of the rainy season?

Proactive cleaning before – during – after rain

Street sweepers can operate continuously according to schedule:

• Dry weather: remove leaves and dry waste to prevent drain blockages

• After heavy rain: collect mud, sediment, and small debris stuck to road surfaces

• Light rain: machines continue operating thanks to enclosed designs that minimise environmental impact

Replacing entire cleaning teams

• One Dulevo D6 sweeper can replace dozens of manual street cleaners

• Operates at night and during peak hours without disrupting traffic

• Unaffected by standing water, strong winds, or wet road surfaces

Protecting workers and the environment

• Reduces occupational accident risks and exposure to infectious waste during the rainy season

• Enclosed dust suction system prevents the spread of fine dust (PM2.5)

A clean city after the rain is not only beautiful — it is safe and civilised.
