Those sound like a great idea. I think I saw something like this at Costco. I'm curious to hear what others say. I end up with too much water in the garage and this sounds like a solution to keep in in one spot for easy cleanup

Cool

This is what I came up with to trap mud and water from my SxS. Four pieces of 2x6 and a tarp. I added two wheels to haul it outside to clean out. If you want it for a car or pickup, just go bigger. Tracstar

the ones at costco are just a large rubber mat...the water will simply run off.

I know the ones your looking at...they have a lip that would hold the slush and water in.
The thought I would have is that it would simply do that...it would always be wet and muddy....would it not....you would park in the wet and mud daily? You would need a wet vac on standby if so.

if any one has a dealer contact let us know.

I like the tarp thing and might try that.

I saw one similar to this at one of my customers with the edge being sewen around 2 inch foam so it holds looks of muck I haven't seen one like it any where else, but it looked good and he loved it.

I'd imagine one strategy would be to drag it outside every once in a while and empty it.

well...this got me thinking...while buying a cheap gun locker at Canadian Tire this am....they had tarps on dirt cheap...I will be making one with 1x4's or the foam inserts like above. The tarp was $6...wood and staples not more than $20...see what happens.

Costcos has them. I believe they're about 7'X18'. Their design is a diamond plate pattern. I purchased mine at Menards in GF only because their design was ribbed, running lenghtwise, which has all the water running to the back of the garage towards the door. A bit cheaper there, but like I said, only bought it there because of the design. Have mine in both garage bays for the last 4 or 5 years and still work great. Come spring time, just pull them out and pressure wash. Hope this helps.
