Have I told you how much we hate doing campers and RV's!

And our price reflects it.

Carpet and upholstery only.. $400...$200 per hour per van....

Or I will go make it cleaning something easier for the same per hour price!

Son in law Aron loves them too.. Not!

I enjoy cleaning them but they are hot and tight for this wide body. :winky:

There is a market for the work and if they are nice, they have quite an investment in them. So they are willing to pay to have it done right. :icon_cool:

Like Jim we used to do work for an RV dealer and every few months send a truck or two to their lot and clean carpet, upholstery, mini blinds, wipe down vinyl and leather.

The "Blue Team" is getting too fat and comfortable if you ask me.


Free ride alongs with the Fat Blue team...

Love watching grown men try to keep up with this almost 54 year old... Lol


Oh and by the way, today the son in law had the day off to take his kid fishing while I went out and made $800 in 2 hours. Power wash and had Scrub basement walls and floor of small empty. Charged. 50 cents per Sq foot and ended up still giving bit of discount as felt bit bad knowing I could make good time as this is not my first rodeo...

A Friday afternoon call that had to have it done before Monday...

I just happen to know what my time is worth and fortunately, people still line up and wait for this fat boy to do it :)

My wallet feels skinny today though... Lol

You're lucky you live in the sub arctic area.......... This island boy would freeze more than just my nuts there, the equipment too..... I think it's more job security with you living there.... :lol:

Comparable to cleaning big boats without the view and ambiance.

Stair and upholstery tools get the majority of use the over a wand due to the confined spaces, so your back will thank you later.

And yes, this is The Bronx you crakerz.................

I had a friend that owned the Happy Camper. I used to clean a bunch. Got a short wand to make it easier. Also works great on boats. He passed and now I rarely clean them more than a couple times a year.
