Ok these are strange times.
This in not a bad time to be in the cleaning industry. People suddenly like soap and water, and even value it.
As an industry we are well placed to sanitise shopping trolleys an masse across the entire country. We have the kit to deliver soap and water and disinfectant to large amounts of shopping trolleys. Tesco sainsburies Asda etc etc dont. We can cash in now and bring this service into the public eye and force supermarkets to take up this service quickly and permanently.
As an industry we can find £millions more revenue for ourselves year on year, if we all act now.
Encourage any and all to approach your local supermarkets with an offer to clean (maybe softwash) the trolley fleet. Either as a voluntary initially as a good will gesture, or as a colder view of squeezing them while they need to be seen doing it. Either way this gap in the market could be exploited.
Get out there, get yourselves some good advertising locally, raise our industry profile and bring back millions of pounds of new revenue from the supermarkets.
Rant over..😆
I was thinking of a way to help out with the corvid thing, other than keeping clean and steering clear. Lots of people are mucking in to help. Initially I thought of offering services to cover supermarket delivery drivers if they need extra hands. That's when it occurred to me that the trolleys could be disinfected quickly and easily.
And discuss.......📡

i couldnt be arsed mate...id rather have the time off if i cant clean windows.......i dont know whether so called sanitizing shopping trolleys would help stop the spread of the virus anyway......
-
Yes it would - certainly if steam cleaned
it's not a bad idea although it would be. lot of standing about all day
in our local Tesco they have a bottle of sanitiser spray by the entrance so I doubt they will go for a proper cleaning service
anyway Daz, unlike ol' Nigel - who runs his system to melt brushes due to lack of a decent cleaning technique your water isn't hot enough.

Oops somebody bave me a case of ale, looks like it got the better of me.
Not a terrible idea though.

Can't help thinking that ASDA and the like - if they decide to clean their trolleys - will just get their trolley/car park guys and gals to go round with a cloth and a bucket of soapy water?

Too risky for them .
In fact for us too , splashing water that that will be turning into the aerosol effect if that’s what it’s called , this virus is airborne !
