Just got back from a job.
Whilst cleaning his lounge carpet, he was pottering about in the kitchen on his hands and knees with a dust pan and brush.
For some reason, he emptied all the crap that was in the pan into my newly opened 15kg tub of cleaning powder which he thought was a bin !!!! 

So far I've managed to sieve out numerous dog hairs, bits of food, a stanley blade, some orange peel and various other bits of crap  :

Some customers never cease to amaze me

Actually Terry, there's a serious side to this.

It could be a child or dog that decides to eat the contents of an OPEN tub of cleaning powder. A lawyers' heaven.

I make it a habit on EVERY job to ask if there are any small children around so I know if I can bring chems etc into house. I even tell customers about hot solution hose and put out wet floor sign and trip hazard sign.

Please don't take this as condescending, but I stopped mixing chemicals in peoples homes after I'd heard of someone knackering someone's oak work top....

Everything's made up at the van...

[fitz2kleen]

machine dont enter the property so why should the chemicals?
Same as....  mix everything in the van.

Safe working environment for me... safe living environment for them!

[terrymaloy]

Point taken guys...
Chemicals left on the van from now on !

[garyfindlay]

I always mix chemicals in the van. Taking chemicals into a house means 1 more thing to leave behind.

[Russ Chadd]

I always mix in the van... or on the drive

Same here, but can spill quite a bit going round corners.

Colin's right keep it out of house if you can.

I don't nt them seeing the professional ratio of Cilit Bang to 1001 that gives the ultimate results with my George.

A quick mist over with the grime and lime variant is as good as any acid rinse.
