One of the guys took this today...about 6pm....he took it because there are not to many days when all the open trailers are at the yard at the same time. I have two Landscape Trailers and another enclosed Roof Cleaning trailer that are not in the pic unfortunatly. Kinda made me proud to see them all lined up.

He's not busy if they can all be photographed at the same time...lol. j/k :sarcastic:


Very nice Mike, you, jeff and a couple others are operating businesses that many others dream of.
 
Thanks Gary - you are right though...it has slowed down a bit but still keeping all the rigs running at least 6 days a week, just not as full. Typical of July here.

Just need to get out and beat the bushes some more...but it provided a good photo op that has never happened in the last 8 years or so.

With my 'home improvement roots', July thru late August had always been a slow period. Adding the PW services helped extend the scheduled work through those times, became a nice time to take a vacation when it did permit.

You know, I spoke with someone yesterday, and I admitted I lost the 'fire' that stoked my desire for this whole industry, don't know what it was, maybe the sole responsibility I was taking on, but, nothing ever satisfied me more than a customer saying "WOW". In April my 11 year old daughter tossed something on those ambers and got that fire flaring. Its back to smoldering again with all this gloom and doom and local negativity, but we'll regroup, reorganize, and redeem.

Do you have a place to store all these open trailers in the winter or just run antifreeze through them?

How well do like the Hydro Teks ?

How long have you been running them?

I have one that is going on 3 years and love it. Have not had any major problems yet.
 
Jeff....we just winterize them on the few nights that get real cold, but I do have a 50'x15' climate controlled storage unit that I could put them in too. We only hit freezing 5-10 times a year and we just recycle the antifreeze.


I thought about changing the logo to a weedwhacker but didn't want to mess with the "brand" - it is easily recognizable.
 
Very nice with the fleet Mike. I wish we had enough work down here to justify having more than one rig especially when we get real busy but it just doesn't seem to last long enough. I did have 2 rigs for awhile but one of them basically just sat idle. Part of the problem was trying to find someone who was responsible enough to use the 2ND one and get the jobs done right.
