Hi folks,
Many years ago I had a great round. I actually worked for someone on one of his rounds and he paid me a day rate but it was a good life for me at that age and of course all traditional back then too. Sadly the guy died and his wife closed it all down and I had to move on.
Recently I’ve thought about starting it again. I run a very successful business and this would be a good add-on. The issue for me now is that I wouldn’t be the one cleaning. I’d essentially be buying the kit, the vans and sourcing the customers and having people do the work for me.
Any advice on doing this? I can see a lot of people being hands on but do any of you have employees that clean for you instead?
i also see people stating windows cleaned for £10? I charged more than that 20 yes ago in a lot of cases. What’s the realistic rate these days to be able to do the job properly?
love to hear all your thoughts.
