I can't leave my any of my box doors open & go down the road because of a loud buzzer that wont go off unless doors are closed.

I may not have as much but I bet I am pretty close...and I am getting ready to add more....it does not look like I carry as much because I keep it neat and organized so that I don't spend half the day looking for things and/or having to unload half of it to get to something....

how is the hoist working out for you...do you have to unload half the truck to swing what ever you hook to it out...

I only had that much stuff, in there because of the days work i had to do...

other wise i keep it pretty clear.....so i can get to stuff....that and the weight would be an issue

love the hoist....use it for that prespray machine all the time...cimex a few times.....shoot i even have used it to get my buffers up the ramp, on days it was a little rainy and i have no traction....


oh and that stuff can only be so organized...

2 26" autoscrubbers
1 24" buffer
1 24" strip machine
3 mop buckets
misc chems...

then the cimex, 360, RX-20, sprayer are all on that right side all the time..

big ass hose reel, heater...

my problem, (and 1 of the many reasons to go back to a trailer setup) is i cant get to the other side of the machine very easy, so i lose about 2' of space.....with a trailer i can get access through the side, so it will free up more space, different/better layout

:lol: I have seen other trucks with doors swinging in the back which is why I decided to do as I always do overkill by using a visual & audio alert so I don't loose anything or worse yet cause damage to someone else s vehicle or my truck.

That's cuz he runs a successful carpet cleaning business not a janitorial service.
I disagree with being labeled janitorial because you do vct or hard floor. I clean all floors types and would not consider myoutfit to be janitorial. I think general cleaning would be considered more janitorial. I love vct this time of the year it really gets busy from all the salt and sand on the road
