This is from another site and was posted by a guy who worked there 10 years ago now


Stanley manufactures their own units in Ohio. All my info is 5 years old when i worked for them for 14 years. The majority of them use a 56 blower but can be ordered with a smaller blower. All the units at the franchises I worked at had 56 blowers. The engines are Ford 4 cylinder industrial motors. They tried Kobota for a while but had many units burn valve so switched to Ford. Their pressure pumps are Hydrocell d10 (the best pump on the market) They use jabsco pumpouts and 35 gallon waste tanks. Their heat exchanger produces around 220 degrees when single wanding but was inadequate for dual wanding.

The units are very reliable, fairly easy to maintain and repair.

Do you have any specific questions?

all I see is them running around my town smoking on the job, dumping waste water down the driveway or the gutter and soaking carpet. How can you f... up that much in the field with such shiney trucks, 2 man crews with dockers and polo shirts and all those TV commercials promising 50% off?! I lost count years ago the customers who tell me about their way of selling the services. Inflated invoices, b.s. calls to the "office" asking the boss to approve a lower price.

They only thing I'd like hear about them is that their mothership corporation got their tit in the ringer with state and federal laws and had to dissolve.

It was more than 15 years ago now but I remember the SS truck being a large slide in. We dumped on every job with a APO. Heat was certainly adequate for 1 wand. We never ran more.

Trucks were cleaned at the end of EVERY shift.

Rochester, NY branch. I think it was 6-8 trucks back in the day.

I'm not. Born and raised upstate, in a suburb of Rochester. My dad's still there and quite a few friends stuck around but I left close to 15 years ago now.

The Rochester branch was nowhere near 30 trucks but I got a good taste of the franchise.

Now he should have hooked up that bad ass TM to slurp that stool up. I try not to have a Chavez at my customers house, but if the damn thing is prairie doggin' whatcha gonna do? I've walked by some depositories after Mrs. Piffleton came out and a case of febreeze wouldn't dent that funk.
