Warren Wallace runs a successful carpet cleaning business in the northern part of Illinois. He did this without a truckmount. When Warren came down to Greenville to get his truck mount, I had him bring all of his equipment, so that we could organize his truck. Let this be a good lession learned for a newbe that wants to start a carpet cleaning company. You do not have to have a truckmount and the monthly expenses of owning one to get started. I suggest to anyone considering going in the business to at least give Warren a call and discuss how he did it. One thing that I can guarantee you, if someone is successful in the carpet cleaning business, and that they have used is a portable, they know how to clean carpets.

We first started the installation with a extra large propane tank, due to all the room under the boxtruck. This large tank will give Warren over 60 hours trigger time before refilling. The cost to fill this bottle was under $90.00. That's $1.50 an hour to have continuous trouble free, low maintenance 240 Degrees on a Greenie highflow wand.

The box truck was a 14'. We installed a 225 gallon fresh water tank. We also organized and strapped down all the other equipment that he wanted to carry with him on the truck.

The truck had a nice ramp, no more lifting heavy equipment in and out.

Is that in case you can't swing a genuine Judson at the time?
Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, not Truckmounts.

All multi-trucker Janitors can afford a TNT, it's not a bank breaker.

Very, very nice, but is it just the way the picture looks or should you have taken the Cimex and autoscrubber out berfore the install. It looks to me like they are trapped!
