Try to use the sidewalk during the approach. 
Why not just give them a call or just go up to one of the people there and tell them what you do, what kind of deal you can give them, etc. What is this place? Does it sell RV's? Store them for people?

30-40 RV's..... my adivce is stay away.
You want to detail that many RV's. I hate it when i have to do a ford expedition or excursion. I have done RV's in the past. Interior and Exterior. I felt more like a house keeper then a detailer.
If that will be your only detailing, then it might be ok, but to take on side work on top of detailing 30-40 RV's, you may end up hurting yourself businesswise.
You will be so tied up with detailing rv's you will not have anytime to detail othe cars, or will be to tired to detail them.
this is just my thoughts..... but
if you were to approach them here is what i would do.
speak with the mngr in the place, explain to him how you can be of service and explain how he will benefit from hiring you. Think of ever question he can possibly ask you before you go. You dont want to answer questions with hmmmmm,, uhhhhhh. Answer quickly and confident. It makes you and your company look better.
You may also need to have insurance to work on the cars as well.

I would speak to the owner of the storage place. Do you have any experience detailing RV's? I've done some big jobs, 41' boat , ambulances, rescue trucks. All I can say is make sure you charge enough. These jobs take a long time and really beat you up. It's a part of the market that a lot of detailers do not seem to want to touch. This works in your favor because you can charge more.
I wanted to speak to the manager of the storage place to offer this service to the people who store their RV on site. Now, that I know exactly what to expect I can decide if this is something I want to step into. I did not expect to do the entire lot. I was estimating that if I talk to every owner I will be able sell maybe 15% of them if not 20% we I am looking at MAYBE 8 vehicles. Then if I schdule them 1-2 a week mixed in with my regular clients I should be ok. Give me your thoughts please.
