Cleaning schools

[hogjowl]

I have several I clean every year. Some, like the one in the picture below, I've cleaned for years, and through three or four administrations. The picture shows the condition in which I find most classrooms. All I have to do is vacuum and clean.

I have a new school to start next week that I have never cleaned before. They've always done it themselves. I bet it will take me a couple of years to get them trained that well.

so whats your point?


do you have a question?


or are you just bragging that you got a phone call today.

It's a great repeat niche that most never notice.

Be quiet Marty, and be glad you've got it. Mine usually don't start until end of June.

I'd rather keep mine until I retire...so buzz off Mike.

I love it when the time comes around for me to clean the schools.......everyone leaves us alone..I send one truck to one building and one to another....then when those are done we split one truck upstairs and one down.....

what normally took me 3 days to do I now do it in half the time.......

Custodians aren't unionized down there? I could clean in a week what it takes them all summer..

Never had a school call, done a few large libraries.

What has been great for us... Church's. going to do a very large one tomorrow. Cleaned a 200 yr old one last year. Definitely more interesting than cleaning Mrs. Smiths basement. Great client, all of them. Easy to get, easy to keep, and they stay on a schedule.

We only do one and its a part of a church. I wish we could get others, its good work.

Congrats Piglet!

Schools were good work for us. We did several grade schools, all the middle schools but only 1 of the high schools had carpet. Repeats year after year. Lots of square feet of open carpet.

Being active with Chamber of Commerce Education committee, the PIE (Partners in Education), and various parent teacher fund-raiser organizations helped us get an inside track with the decision makers.

I AM fortunate! I'm grateful. I'm nearing the end of a 48,000 s.f. job now, and have four more schools left to do.

At the same time, we're juggling our property managers houses because our military move out season is in full force.

I work like a Mexican for two months (June and July) every year.

Then I coast most of August during dog days.

P.S. Like a 1st generation Mexican. Not like Taco!

Hey now!
I went to 2 water losses yesterday and loaded and unloaded trucks today as well as cleaned the carpet in a 25-passenger limo bus. Bite this taco!

It ain't easy being cheesy!

Yes !

There is no way I could have handled the additional work load I received this year without him.
