    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for performing high volume washing, namely, using drones to perform cleaning services. A drone is navigated about a cleaning path; the cleaning path being either pre-defined or delineated in real-time. A cleaning solution is pumped to a solution distribution mechanism of the drone, wherein the cleaning solution is directed onto the surface to be cleaned. The solution is stored in a supply tank that may be integrated into the body of the drone or outfitted as a standalone structure. A temperature regulator is integrated with the supply tank in order to control a wash temperature of the cleaning solution. The solution distribution mechanism may be rotatable about 360 degrees. A camera array observes a spray area of the solution distribution mechanism, wherein a live feed is transmitted to a monitoring unit.
