If you just do window cleaning then no point having a bigger van, i have a normal sized partner with 500l tank. All i need in there is a reel and couple of poles. Compared to a bigger van its so easy to park and much better on fuel. Could fit a gutter vac or even a pressure washer in if i really wanted.
Have you got your reel fixed to the floor or is it raised?

I've averaged 3 days a week which is my thing anyway. I still get some customers text on the day asking me not to come because its raining.
Just imagine if this was 20 or so years ago all this rain would have been snow which would probably have been here for weeks before thawing.
It will soon be spring/summer when we'll all be moaning that its too damn hot to work!

I just take it on the chin, I hate working in the rain anyway. I will work in light rain but my rule of thumb is, if the rain is hitting off the windows they don’t get cleaned.
I don’t think it’s a great look turning up at a customers house dressed as a trawlerman and proceeding to clean their windows😆

Same here it’s a hard sell in this weather 
A little bit of retail and commercial has seen me through
The daffodils are coming up
Get ready for the first spring sunshine  when they suddenly remember your number

Hi all just wondering how your all getting on working in the recent constant rain ?
I’m in the West Sussex feels like it’s been raining for ever,one dry day this week,so been working in the rain to earn some money not ideal working conditions ,also not the best for paying customers but what do you do ? We’re all in the same boat no work no pay.
To be honest I’ve also found it dragging me down mentally,as in fed up getting soaked,fed up with customers comments ,knew you would come today as it’s raining etc also feeling anxious about customers thoughts about cleaning in the rain.

I enjoy reading Simon's post as he tells it as it is, nice to have some honest opinions even if he calls out some people as snowflakes now and again.

AuRavelling, if you’re gonna keep deleting my posts just because you or others don’t agree or find it offensive then there’s no point me contributing to anything on here. I’ll be off if someone could just show me how to delete my account? I can’t find how.

Don’t delete your account.

I don’t post on here half as much on here as I ever used to, don’t post on the other side of the forum at all, but it’s fun to have as a point to touch base with every now and then.
