got a wfp but no car!!!!
« on: January 08, 2006, 11:18:28 pm »
Hello.  I dont have a car but I want to buy a wfp to do domestic window cleaning.  I think i would look like a sad retard who deserves to be shot if I tried to move around my wfp without the help of a vehicle to get from customer to customer.  What do you guys think?

How would you get to your customers?

Some of my rounds are a good 20 \ 30 mins away from where I live.

If you have no transport i can't see how you can ???

I had a small round years ago when i couldn't drive and i got an old pram from the tip and altered it so i could carry ladders and equipment.

I got fed up pushing it about as i spent more time pushing it than cleaning windows. So i gave it up and gave my work to a mate.

If you want to make a living from w/cing (wfp) then you are going to need transport.

i suppose you could tie a wheelbarrow on the back of a push bike,

then you would have a trailer wfp setup! ::)

I heard a true story about a Liverpool kid who wanted a bike for Christmas like all his mates were getting...no way could his family afford one so they got him a wheelbarrow...the person who told me swears that he seen the kid on Christmas day running himself ragged pushing the wheelbarrow behind all his mates on their new bikes. ;D ;D ;D

There is a company that makes and sells customized trikes.

He has made quite a few for ice cream and hot dog sellers.

You could adapt something like this.
