Is that the guys working off one of those super rigs or 3 to 4 super rigs out there working?

That is a lot of water moving!

If he was reclaiming with vacuum surface cleaners wouldn't he be "Dryfoot"?

They local on I saw decided to take a break and walked away and left the 36 in turbo twister running on the bedford tile in the front of a new walmart and cut a deeeep groove into it! I dont care how nice you are or what the equipment looks like you simply cant have mistakes like that and it happened to them in 3 different spots at the same location plus they cut the top layer of the tiles in about 30 spots trying to remove gum without the hot water running, how do I know this? I watched them do it!
 
My new Little Trailer

After all the talk of Super Rigs ...I decided to build me another little trailer.
Today I got me a 20ft x7ft, 12k Axles, powder coated trailer.

Going to take my equipment out of storage and put it on another trailer.

This one is going to have
11gpm 4000 psi hotwater system (two 5.5 machine tied together)
12gpm 2300 cold water unit (for homes)
4 electric cox reels
Roof wash set up
and probably the reclaim setup (not doing me no good in storage)

This will get a my stuff out of storage and I can increase my Fleet to "TWO" lol

Russ....I reckon if you have employes that can happen and the bigger you get the more chance
someone will mess up.
The only thing I can say is hopefully he fired the guy(s) responsible and if work continues to be sub par
he will lose his contracts....time will tell.

That is a nice looking trailer Al, Hope you post pics when you have everything loaded on the trailer.

Are you focusing mostly on residential and no commercial at all?
 
Hi Al. I guess pulling that shiny equipment out of the garage and lugging it around on a trailer is preferable to uttering the phrase, "You were right".

And if you don't have any regrets about spending the price of an SUV based on the word of unscrupulous vendors I've got an electric machine (environmentally friendly and soon to be required for all power washing, haha) that I will sell you right now for the price of a small car. Lol.

BTW, this post probably just sold your equipment. Some Ron/Tony hater will buy it now to keep you from having to defend your decision to buy it. Lol

Al, I have a lot of respect for your commitment to the Lord. You are a good, decent, moral man. That's why it is so hard to understand why you won't just come out and say that you spent tens of thousands of dollars based on information that was false.

I am pretty sure it's Wetfoot that cleans the Walmart's here. I've seen them work a few times, and talked to them, although I haven't met the owner yet. It seems like most times they only clean the entrances and a few feet of either side of the entrance. They don't clean the entire storefront every time. It looks like they come every few weeks, so there wouldn't be much need to do the entire storefront every time. They do a good job.

I was coming back from NOLA one time, passing through Jefferson, which is only about an hour away. Stopped at a McDonald's and saw a pressure washing rig go by. I know for a fact it was Wetfoot's because it took about 5 minutes for the entire trailer to pass by! haha.
 
I wonder about the guy that had a super rig in the Phoenix area. It had a couple of huge tanks and four or 5 pressure washers on it. Last I heard, he had wrecked it for the second or third time, and I have not seen him since. I will stick with my little old pickups. They work well enough for me.
 
And a Toyota Pickup

Here is a super rig that was a couple blocks away from me. I really admired his rig, I used to see him around town on a daily basis, then I found it listed on craigslist! The ad said due to health issues he had to seel, He tried selling it whole but no one would pay the $25,000 LISTED PRICE! He then started listing everything in pieces.

Did you get any of it?
 
I know that guy, even trained with him in Florida.

Hate to hear about anyone selling their rigs due to health reasons, that is a shame.

How long ago did he list it?

That trailer had just about everything on it.

From what I seen it does have everything needed on it. I was bummed to read it was for health issues as well, and in my opinion I thought it was well worth double what he was asking. It was prolly almost a year ago now, he also had a ton of really cool hand made furniture and things listed as well. Im not sure if he was a carpenter on the side or as a hobby but he has some killer tables and chairs that were made of logs and what not, super nice and unique
 
Looks like a work horse that gets the job done! Throw some paint on those reels I can see there age from 30 feet in the air lol
 
I also like the flat bed chris, I just went and looked at a chevy 3500 flat bed with extended cab...im just kinda leaning away from it because my current work truck is a ford, they gotta match lol

After 20 minutes I said screw it its too nice, walked to my truck and busted out a wad of 100's said this is what I got take it or leave it...they said they couldnt come down that low and said they have my number, they called 2 days later and said they will take my offer...I lowered my price by another 1000 and said we cant do that but will stick to your original offer, Told em you got number call me when your ready! They will be calling by the end of week lmao
