Hi Matt

In a new area it is quite possible to get 8 to 10 new customers per day,per person.
National priceing is around the £3 mark some below and some higher.
It is ileagal to allow any waste water from the cleaning of a waste container to find its way into the storm drains. The Environmental best practice guidelines say that a specialists vehicle should be used and that the bin should be cleaned inside the vehicle. The water must be held inside the vehicle and recycled during the day.
I do not think it would be possible to clean bins by hand and not break the guidelines.
For £1500 down and £99 per week you can have a new vehicle fully kitted out to do this work on the road in 3 weeks time.
Take a look at my site.
