Looking to get a wfp trolley to do the awkward windows above conservatories and porches  with a steep slopping roof.  and conservatory roofs.

Give Andrew McCann @ Purefreedom a call on 01472 347519 and he will give u a price. Tell him Donny Dave told u to call and he will gimme commision on the sale  (NOT) lol  

He will be busy coz he always seems to be but he will take the time to listen to you and ask u questions to make sure u end up with the right set up. (Size of poles etc). They give very good service all round.

Have only used the freedom trolley so i can't say it is the best but i wouldn't swap it for another type.
Whatever trolley you use, you will want to get the lightest if you are going to be lifting it in and out all day. And as they can only carry 25 or 50 litres preferably with a varistream or similar pump controller, so you can regulate how much water to use.
ps i wouldn't want to be pulling 50 litres on a trolley though. 25 is enough.

Pure Freedom trolley is what I use and have done for 2 years now, what a great piece of kit, I use it with 10 mtr's of hose so you don't have to move around as much.

What are the running  costs.
Title: Re: best water fed pole trolley
Post by: tonylee on January 31, 2008, 12:25:39 pm
running costs for me are
a bag of resin £70 plus vat lasts me about a year
3 filter changes a year about £45.00
those are my running costs however, there is always something to buy. spares of everything, a better pole, a longer pole, a lighter pole!
this said i have doubled my takings since going wfp

just add pole,brush and hose.

ideal for start up....if you have a tank in van then great if not then get a small di unit to put on trolley...cheap.

loads of good trolleys out there...the 1st post has a list of suppliers......the point i am making is this.....for newbies to wfp with little spare cash lying around then the cheapest way by far is diy.............i calculated the cost of setting one up for car users.

35 quid for the trolley

125 quid for the backpack from america or 145 if they hit you for duty.

12 quid for 30 mtrs braided hose from hyrdrasun

25 quid to make your own pole......24 foot skyblue or similar.

10 to 20 quid for a brush and fittings

5 quid for connectors

30 quid for a 4.9 litre di vessel from ebay

25 quid to fill with resin....only viable if you are in soft water areas.

possible start up price. 270 quid
