When is best to start pushing to get carpets cleaned before christmas, is it a bit early yet?

No, I imagine a lot of cleaners already have bookings for the run up to Xmas. Must say it doesn't seem as hectic as it used to be a few years ago. However January through to March seems to be a lot busier whereas they used to be dead.

I think its time now to start pusing carpet cleaning - Took a booking yesterday for carpet cleaning for christmas, she's redecorating over the next few weeks then wants carpets done before putting up decorations. Plus I say to everyone Mid November til Christmas is especially busy so it's best they get it booked in now.

Hi Russell,

wouldnt use the post office, too expensive, plus you have to pay about 50 quid to post them to the post office first?!

then if the post man hasnt got to post letters at that address they dont get delivered, or so im told by my local postie.

i've got a few people to help put them out, do you know any good value for money distributors

I don't think i could trust anybody to deliver for me, the reason for this is about 6 years ago i had a contract with a company maintaining woodlands, from small woods to forests in the Sussex and surrey and Kent areas and part of the job was litter clearance and the amount of bundles of leaflets, free papers etc that were dumped was unbelievable. I used to phone the people on the leaflets etc and explain what had happened because i thought they should know and i got fed up cleaning them all up. So i will be delivering my own.

Another option is to get someone who you know or a familly friend etc,a retired person in your area
would be a good option as thats what llines i am going down.

Think your right even the posties dont deliver to every door and when am cleaning in blocks of flats i always see piles of leaflets and yell pages just sat there waiting to be dumped ::)
