Clear mud, dead leaves, and litter from ground concrete pads surrounding roadside rapid EV charging pedestals.

Earning and time figures are our broad estimates, not guarantees — actual results depend on your area, your effort and demand.

Why it's left-field

EV charging operators pay you to sweep wet leaves off concrete charging pads so drivers do not step in mud while plugging in.

How it works

  1. 1Pitch site maintenance contracts to local public charger hosts and retail parks.
  2. 2Sweep away mud, leaves, and trash trapped around charging pedestal bases using outdoor brooms.
  3. 3Wipe clean lower pedestal casings and record finished site visits.
