Carpet Cleaning In France
« on: December 30, 2010, 11:03:45 am »
Has anyone done this? I am thinking of trying it with our Truckmount. Anyone fancy teaming up with a Dual operating truckmount and myself and hitting France?

Exactly ... there will be loads of dirty carpets. The bloke who I bought our truckmount had a business partner and he did all his cleaning in France. Made a mint.

My parents live in France, and although ex-pats tend to prefer carpets the French are more inclined to have tiled floors with maybe a few rugs.

I've been to France 6 times never seen carpets only on the planes or ferries.

Can I ask why you are thinking of trying it? Is there some reason in particular?

It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.

i lived in france for three years and i did not see many carpets even in the homes of the ex pats but i lived in central france in the country perhaps it is different in larger towns and cities, i would be up for going out there if you if you have any contacts.

My girlfriend is french and none of her family have got carpets, but some have the odd rug here and there.

If you could go over with a few rugs to do and try to get some whilst you are there then you may make a few quid.

I meant Monte, I was thinking he may have hit on something. Usually when someone says to me they are going further afield though, I think they should do the complete opposite and just change what they are doing.

Je suis d'accord carrelage également d'une sellerie, mais beaucoup de tapis dans les stations de ski
