Any day of the week you could be involved with a "muppet" driver and why overstate the advantages of a T/M over portables when it's the person operating the machine that matters.
You must have one hell of a line in brainwashing if you have a single client who'd refuse to have her carpets cleaned with a modern portable. A bit stupid really as you could easily find the need to use a portable on occasions.Robert have you got a problem accepting that a 20 fold increase in driving accidents in such weather as we are experiencing now does not dramatically increase the risk of having a road accident

and also judging by the tenure of your comments one must assume that you may not understand that with a truckmount if you get your van shafted it is not a simple exercise just moving your equipment to another van like you can do with a portable machine (a good reason for keeping your portables

) and please explain where you feel I overstated the advantages of a truckmount over portables? It is the clients who state their preference and many of ours prefer us to use the truckmount when cleaning for them for a number of reasons! Now because this is a matter of personal opinion and I make the point that I graciously accept yours and will not even bother trying to explain what we feel are the merits and advantages of cleaning using truckmounts

And just for the record we still clean using portable machines on some inaccessible jobs and the odd small carpet so personally I have no issues so let’s not get personal
“Quote” You must have one hell of a line in brainwashing my question originally was To work or not to work in the snow and as it is very topical considering the weather conditions I cannot understand why you are making assertions that are clearly not in any thing I have said, maybe this is a point that any moderator reading this thread would like to take up
