Along the I-5 and Columbia Corridor there are distribution centers with more slab than any night crew can scrub, Hillsboro campuses with polished concrete and carpet in the same building, and hospitals that cannot close a corridor for a floor machine. First Class Building Supply & Services delivers, deploys, trains and supports Gausium cleaning robots in the Portland area, from Hillsboro to Gresham and across the river to Vancouver.
The robot suits floors that are large, open and cleaned on a fixed schedule. In the Portland area that means four kinds of buildings.
Cross-dock and fulfillment buildings from Wilsonville to the airport industrial area, where the floor is concrete, the aisles are long and dust builds every shift.
Clean production floors, cafeterias and office wings under one roof. A robot with more than one map handles polished concrete by night and carpet by day.
Corridors that stay open around the clock. A quiet autonomous scrubber works in short windows, docks itself and records coverage for the environmental services log.
Common areas, parking-level lobbies and food-court floors that have to look clean when doors open, with one operator instead of a crew of three.
We do not drop a crate at the dock. The robot comes with mapping, training and a service plan, delivered by our own team.
We deliver to Portland-area facilities on a scheduled date, unpack and charge the robot and confirm the docking location works.
The first day is spent walking the robot through its routes, setting boundaries around racking, ramps and loading doors, and timing the runs.
Whoever runs the night shift learns the controls, the app and the emptying and charging routine before we leave.
Preventive maintenance is scheduled; faults bring a technician to your building. Consumables are stocked and shipped to Portland, not ordered abroad.
After every run the robot produces a map of what it cleaned and how long it took, which most property managers forward straight to their owners.
One person at First Class owns your account from the demo onward.
Which structure fits depends on whose budget the robot sits in. We quote all three in one proposal so the facilities and finance teams can compare on one page.
The robot is yours. We deliver, map and train, and you can add an annual service plan for maintenance and parts.
A monthly rate that includes the machine, software, preventive maintenance, parts and service. Nothing to capitalize; the result is what you pay for.
Fixed monthly payments over a set term, with the option to own the robot at the end. Common with school districts and long-lease tenants.
About $680 a month financed over 60 months, subject to credit approval, versus $2,500 to $4,000 a month in part-time floor labor. See how those numbers are built, or compare the three options in detail.
From distribution slab to hospital corridor to a retail concourse, these three cover most Portland deployments.
The scrubber-sweeper for Columbia Corridor warehouses: one pass picks up debris and scrubs the concrete behind it.
A mid-size scrubber for malls, campus buildings and hospital corridors where the floor is hard but the space is tighter.
Vacuums, sweeps, scrubs and dust-mops in one compact unit for office wings, clinics and smaller retail floors.
One visit, one section of your floor, one written proposal. Here is the sequence.
We look at floor finishes, thresholds, ramps, charging spots and where the robot would be stored.
Square footage by floor type tells us which model to bring and how many hours per night it will need.
One recommendation, with a second option if the building mixes carpet and hard floor.
The robot maps a representative area and cleans it while your team watches and asks questions.
Buy, lease and Robot-as-a-Service side by side, with the demo's coverage map attached.
Yes. We deliver, map, train and service Gausium robots throughout the Portland metro, including Hillsboro, Beaverton, Tigard, Gresham and Vancouver across the river.
Mapping a building that size usually takes one working day, with the robot running its first full route that night. Fine-tuning the schedule and no-go zones takes a week of normal shifts.
First Class does. Preventive maintenance is scheduled in advance, a technician comes to your site for faults, and consumables are stocked for Portland-area customers. Robot-as-a-Service customers have all of that inside the monthly rate.
Some can. Phantas and the Vacuum 40 handle carpet; the scrubbers are for hard floor. A campus with both usually runs two maps on one unit or two smaller units, which is what the demo settles.
About $680 a month on 60-month financing, subject to credit approval, against $2,500 to $4,000 a month for the part-time floor labor it replaces. The full math is on the cost page linked above.
Give us the city, the floor area and the floor type and we will call to schedule a demo and confirm the model.
