wheelie bin cleanining equipment

Posted by lloydthomas (lloydthomas), 9 October 2003
Can anyone anywhere supply information on where to obtain equipment for cleaning wheelie bins (I don't want a franchise nor info on starting a business - just equipment manufacturers/suppliers/distributors)

Regards,

LT

I'll try and dig something out I looked at all the franchises eventually decided to go with a company in Ipswich what a mistake 2 month delay in getting the unit pressure washer packed in day one after cleaning 25 bins, 3 months later pressure washer still not working properly brackets started to break not at all happy with unit.Contacted the company and after alot of arguments eventually gave the unit back only losing a minimal amount of money I was very lucky in that respect.Try this one for starters   http://www.abmcleaning.co.uk/

when you buy a franchise you already have a customer base to get your buisness up and running how do they get the customers for you before your buisness starts   anyone!

Depends which franchise you go for vip send a team of canvassers in for 3-4 days and get as many customers as they can in that period after that timescale you get charged if you want the canvassers to stay longer

Sorry can't help you there the cleaning unit i had just filtered the water through a couple of filters so we were cleaning bins with dirty water that's one of the reasons we we gave the unit back.Try greencleen.com they have a recycling system.

No the manual was very poor but some i've read are really good.The deal i got involved in was very poor alarm bells should have rang when we ordered the unit in January and i was promised it would be ready in three weeks three months later the unit arrived one month later they got it back
