New Accounts require recovery. Help! - Power Wash Network "The Power Wash Contractors Forum"

Hack · #1 (**permalink**) 01-13-06

Hey guys, I'm Brad from London, Ky. I started last year in the pressure washing business part time. I am currently trying to get enough contract Fleet jobs to keep me in steady income full time.

My problem is three accounts I talked to today were very interested if I can reclaim water. I looked at the past threads and got some info. I would like to see if anyone has anything new they could share with me so I may be able to get this going and pick up three fleet accounts.

One of the accounts has a gravel lot. I just don't know what kind of mat or material would be tough enough to drive over on gravel.

any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

There is a thing called a truck mat. It has inflatable edges and allows trucks to be driven over the sides and still contain the water. You would then have to suck it out to be properly reclaimed and dealt with. I can't find the site that has them but at last check they sell for around $500-$600 or so. Make sure they are willing to pay for that kind of equipment use before starting anything with them.

Hey, Thanks! I will look the net over for that matt and yes "they" will pay for it.

www.latimat.com is the closest thing I can find. It looks Expensive! Does anyone have one of these or know anything about them?

I do not know if one of the sponsors has any of these available. If not you can e-mail me as I have found a site that might help.

We have several products from latimat and they work well. Just make sure if you get the large drive on mat to get the reel to make life easier. I would do a lot of research before making such an investment I don't know how they stand up to gravel though, I would never set any of ours up on gravel.

Hey guys, I plan on contacting Mark tomorrow about his wash mats and I also found another company on line. www.ds-sewing.com Looks like they will run around $750 for a tractor trailer size. If anyone who does fleets knows any secrets about reclaim, please share. thanks for all your help.
