What sort of gutter clearing do you have in mind ? - if you want to do 3/4 storeys & commercial work and be able to clear really heavily blocked gutters then you need a big system like Omnivac or Eastern trading - but these cost..

if it's domestic houses & occasional use then there are loads of small lightweight options and even DIY if money
is really tight.

identify your market and look at how much work you will be doing (not wish list work) decide on what you
can afford before parting with your cash.

do a search and look at some posts from just under a year ago for some good comments

you just have to think is it worth spending that amount for 1 job - altho it could well lead to many more !

i would go DIY or buy a small vac system and see how much work you get and even if you like doing
gutters and do thry turn a profit - you can always buy and big system later on
