Grocery stores and supermarkets lease floor-cleaning robots from Service Robot Co. The robot scrubs sales-floor aisles on a nightly plan, so staff stock shelves instead of pushing a scrubber. We deploy it, and RoboCare™ backs it with regional service engineers in every state we service.

No. 02The shift

The overnight shift in your store

The sales floor resets every single night. Here is where that reset automates.

  1. Stage 01

    Truck delivery

    The trucks land and the night crew starts throwing freight.

    What the robot takes

    The crew stays on stocking; the floor is not their problem tonight.

  2. Stage 02

    Overnight scrub

    Every aisle needs its nightly pass before open.

    What the robot takes

    The scrubber runs the mapped aisle plan, end to end.

  3. Stage 03

    Doors open

    Customers walk clean, dry aisles from the first minute.

    What the robot takes

    A consistent overnight pass shrinks the wet-floor risk window.

  4. Stage 04

    Daytime spills

    Breakage and spills happen in the middle of the rush.

    What the robot takes

    A daytime-safe unit can run low-traffic hours around shoppers.

  5. Stage 05

    Seasonal resets

    End caps and displays move with the season.

    What the robot takes

    The robot navigates changes on its own; we update the map when the floor plan turns.

What decides whether it works.

The things we check on a walkthrough, before anyone talks about robots.

  1. 01

    The aisles

    Long, straight runs are the easiest terrain in commercial cleaning. Yours set the pass plan.

  2. 02

    The overnight window

    The pass runs after stocking, so the crew and the robot share the floor plan.

  3. 03

    The back room

    Freight lands in the back room before it ever hits the shelf. The same machine covers the stockroom floor after the aisles.

The work that eats the week

The repetitive, physical, hard-to-staff ground in grocery & supermarkets. This is what a robot takes.

  • Sales-floor aisles need scrubbing every night, and the labor to do it keeps getting harder to hire.
  • A wet aisle is a liability. Consistent overnight floor care shrinks the risk window.
  • Long straight aisles are the easiest terrain in commercial cleaning to automate.
No. 06How you lease

Lease your robots.
