I need to buy more stuff

[Bryce C]

I'm glad I have the CDS with the Hydracradle, otherwise I have no idea how I'd fit all my stuff in the van. I don't know how to clean carpets and furniture well without a million things. I have a big commercial job today so we brought the 175, otherwise that normally stays at home.

I think I need to purchase every small tool, gadget, and doo-dad so I don't have to transfer everything from my van to my trailer and vice versa when one setup goes down. So much stuff.. I don't mind transfering big stuff like air movers, vacuum, wands, etc... but all the chemistry and small stuff is too much!

You need to bring just what you need for the job or the day. I see a lot of carpet cleaners with their vans full of tools that they never use because it's too hard to get at them. I often find myself coming back to the shop to dump a tool and pick up a new one. Easier than cramming it all in.

The only tools I don’t keep on my van are my Cimex and my rotary

What about add-ons? Or unexpectedly tough to clean situations? Most of my jobs are 45 minutes round trip or more to drop off or pickup any tools from my home...

You’ll learn to think for yourself here or you’ll soon be a cleaning freak show.

I know I did a video once or twice or who knows maybe three times on various vehicles and all the things I kept in them at the time

It didn't dawn on me to ask Dwayne about his emergency on site repair kit to keep his cleaning projects going such as wand valves spare hoses on necessary tools quick connects spare hoses etc

As minivans as I've seen at the countless events I've attended or created over the years, very very few are equipped properly to handle breakdowns


I probably learned this in my early years when I ran the remote quote route which was a three to four hour round trip drive to headquarters in order to get anything fixed, plus wait time
