Title: Trolley set ups - looking for advice please
Post by: hank jr on March 31, 2017, 11:24:00 pm
Hi everyone, i decided on getting a trolley system because  it would suit me better than having a fixed tank in the back of a pick up truck. 

Im going to make my water in my garage and fill water water drums to take with me. I like the trolley systems by pure freedom....but im not sure if this is the cheapest option available to me? 

http://www.purefreedom.co.uk/water-fed-poles/trolley-systems/pure-freedom-25-litre-trolley-system-package.html (http://www.purefreedom.co.uk/water-fed-poles/trolley-systems/pure-freedom-25-litre-trolley-system-package.html)

So i need advice on what i would need to make my own water ( as i have no experience ) and i need advice on decent trolley system set ups.

Thanks for any help guys (and gals)

Window cleaners using trollies look like girl thingys and are to be pittied and mocked publicly in the street.     I have a bag of old rotten fruit in the van just for this very scenario, if I see one of the siad offenders they have 5 kilos of veg coming their way !

I have van set up and use a trolley for the ones i cant park close too. Does that count me or people like me who use both?

But then, a backpack on a trolley hides a baseball bat to ward of competitors and defend against trolley haters  ;D ;D

Get the 50litre one it lasts, guess what, twice as long and is a piece of pee to wheel about.....I can do it one handed with no problem.
For the money you get top quality components and engineering and it looks the part.

I have seen a local cleaner with a xline 40l trolley and it looks very good, on certain residential work it would be better and quicker than a cheap imported weed sprayer.
