I lost so much time with the big freeze that I'm now in a position to pick my jobs to specific areas for my days work. I can compact my round to a few streets and cut out all those wasted van trips I used to do. Roll on the summer

Same here. Totally rescheduled all the areas we work in, silver lining etc

Yeah, picking all the big payers off first!!

Bloody right!!

This happens to me all the time and i've asked on here about it before.

Yes, me too with the weather, but also two annual two week holidays.

I have divided my work into four geographical rounds, each one currently having about nine pages outstanding.It's too much for my small brain and i just hit the easy most profitable targets.

They are all big payers!



I wish - got a lot of non-payers at the moment.  :

you should have done it last summer, i told you this ( did i sound wise then )

just let the few be late and you will compact your round alot and make it easier for yourself

[prestige cleaners]

its not been so bad for me as 99% of my round is 8 week cycle, it must be a nightmare for 4 week ones, as you cant get it back?

anyone else do the 8 weeks or is it just me?

ps only 30 carried over to next week, nearly there!

[richywilts]

i do 8 weekly too but my round was everywhere coz since iv built it up when i took people on i just usually cleaned there n then but im using this bad weather to organise it into areas so it will start working better for me

[matt]

Yes Matt, but even if it were perfect, mix in a two week hol and it's straight back to chaos.

perfect mix, thats where people go wrong, they offer 4 weeks, 6 and 8 weeks, offer them all the same, even if a customer says " oh can you do it every 5 weeks " i say " yes as close as i can " i know full well they will fall in with my work, they soon get used to it 

thus that 2 week holiday just means that you are 2 weeks late

richy ,may av su,m power washing 4 u  u interested

i just take week long hols, and try and bring custs forward to 7 weeks, so i dont have to much to come back to, as i only work 3-4 days a week its not too much work to get back on top

[dazmond]

i just work my round from A-Z roughly the same order as nearly all my work monthly.the 2 monthlies i can rejig a bit and i try not to be too late on these stand alones and drop the monthlies to 3 weeks late :(at the moment anyway!).pretty straightforward really!keep it simple!
