Re: Oh man! 250 Fema Trailers

I spend an average of 3-9 minutes in each one.......... There is not much carpet or upholstery........... Did i mention this.................... If the UPH looks clean. I dont clean it, just the carpet.. vice versa if uph dirty and carpet is then just clean uph.. Same price of 40 bucks.. Most where carpet and uph but sme were not..

BTW i have the signed contract. and BTW it looks damn good, I didnt hack them out. They just want them cleaned to run threw the auction. Anything else? I'm not letting you see my youtube video either cause its worse than yours!

Im not saying you are doing a bad job , i cant see it from here, or I wouldnt do the same. But if you are spending 3-9 minutes in each one you are hacking them out. You can not clean a sofa properly in 3-9 minutes, not even factoring in the rest of the stuff you are supposed to be cleaning, carpet, chairs, mattresses etc.

A long handled stair tool like Mike Palmer's UT-40 and you can blow though doing both furniture and carpets in a confined camper with the same tool. A white towel in you belt, two small spray bottles for spotting...and drink lots of water.

Re: Oh man! 250 Fema Trailers

Well, on the upholstery I used Trashed green on it.. Just pre-spray and extracy using a rinse. They came clean. Some may have needed more attention. PICS coming now!

Re: Oh man! 250 Fema Trailers

Here are some quick pictures i took with my phone.. There were more rown than this, just didnt get them in the pics..

Regular size toilet........ not suppose to be in here

Full size fridge doesnt go

This was one of the worst ones by far... When they put the slide out, the carpet was still wet from where it was flooded.. This is before we cleaned the carpet.. There was so much mold underneath they ripped it out. THIS ONE HAD THE LARGEST AMOUNT OF CARPET. THIS ONE HAS 3 TIMES MORE CARPET THAN MOST

 

[daniel@procarpet]

Cool Joey. That is like cleaning a motel with everything nice and lined up, but instead of doing them for like 7 dollars each you are getting 40. Good deal for sure.

 

[joeynbgky]

yup and they signed an exclusive 2 year contract... They will be having 2 more of these auctions within 2 months... I also got the Cleaning contract "maid services" . So not to bad.

The bad part was.... We used the same truck for everything.. So we had to keep switching from the 2 inch wand to the 1.5 inch drimaster. which was a pain in the butt

 

[Bob Savage]

Why didn't you use a 1.5 inch wand instead of the heavier 2" wand, to make things run smoother, and make it easier on you inside that sardine can dealing with no air conditioning and unusually hot weather?

Do you think a 2" wand is necessary doing that job?

 

[joeynbgky]

We only used the big wand some of the time.. For the real small areas we used the stair tool, which worked great. But when we did use the big wand it was a pain to switch, adaptors and stuff.

 

[floorguy]

sooo uh how far was a water hook up?

 

[joeynbgky]

The water hook was in the same lot, but I had to drive to get water.. I only have a 55 gallon water tank. I only had to fill it up about every 3 hours. Because we really didnt use that much water.

 

[dealtimeman]

Pictures say it all, you sir are making killing! I was picturing the larger homes. Those are very small. Very good price!

 

[Royal Man]

Take care of your helper bettter. I pay mine 12% with a $40 per day mimimum.

He usually makes $70-120 per day.

I figure I make more that enough more money per day (because of the helper) to more than make up for his
pay and I have a lot easier day.

Win,Win.

 

[joeynbgky]

i paid them 120 a day and i gave him a 110 bucks extra... Thats why they are on an hourly wage, it shouldn't matter what i make. even though i did pay extra. if Mcdonalds gets busy do they give there employees more money an hour? no they get quarterly performance reviews. for their raises.

 

[-JB-]

Amen bro.


Yur first mistake was posting what yore making, your second was saying wat yur paying your help.


goodonya. !gotcha!

Re: Oh man! 250 Fema Trailers

Joe, did you get to see any of them?

if Katrina trailers, I'd bet a nickel MOST of them are TRASHED
Cheese eatin' welfare folks typically don't take good care of someone elses property

g'luck and I sincerely hope you make a bundle
but i have to say, that price and time table would scare me... :shock:

a secondary thought..this time of year, (busy season) it might be tough to find subs willing to work for that kind of money

g'luck







..L.T.A.

Like Meat says......if they were occupied by "cheese eaters", they were most likely trash "peeps". I hope you don't pick up any scabies or lice......or fleas. Believe me, it's out there.

 

[joeynbgky]

e auction company put tons of money into these units. They actually had exterminators spray them all down im told.. I asked why and they said.............. The owners, whomever they are asked us to get them in tip top shape

 

[Able 1]

Congrats, Joey money in the bank...

 

[Ron Werner]

just need the 1.5-2" adapter for you uph tool

Thats a lot of work. Good deal.

 

[Jamesh921]

Hey Joey,
Did you get 'em all done? Get a check in hand yet? Gonna buy us all a case of beer each?? shiteatinggrin
Just wonderin' if'n you're rehydrated yet?

Gotta love jobs like that.
