Low budget options for starting out and growing

You ain’t kidding…last month I had 1 machine in the shop and my other machine died on me…so I ratchet strapped an old direct drive 4gpm 4000 that i had laying around to my trailer… I know I’m a hoarder LOL… and I went right back to washing just dropping from a 5.5gpm to a 4 was like working in slow motion!!
Proof is in the picture lol


I swear I felt like The Beverly Hillbillies I almost wanted to stop at Walmart and get a couple jugs of bleach just to throw in the back LOL

Thanks marine, that is what I am hoping for and I am grateful for you (and everyone) sharing your experiences.

Ha! Still a mile ahead of me lol. Ill give you a grand for that rig :slight_smile:

@ShawnG that’s my " trailernasty"… notice the amazing easy real wooden reels on it LOL… when everything else quits working on me that trailer is always been there I’m actually in the process now if getting ready to put a little bit of money in it she’s going to get a paint job the stake beds are coming off and she’s getting some new hannay reels… I’ll put some pictures up

It’s how you use the space that matters… here’s my setup.

Plus 1/3rd of the bed is covered with my hardtop! (I’m active military full time as well. The hard top let’s me secure the stuff that fits under the cover when not in use). It’s my personal vehicle as well and it’s only a 5 ft bed.

This setup allows me to do everything under the sun except remove oil stains efficiently… this is a cold water setup.

It earned me enough this year alone to get a damn nice enclosed trailer build but, as many people know, I’m chasing @TexasPressureWashing ‘s setup and working towards a utility truck. But hot water on mine, kind of like @Racer ‘s setup. Both of their utility trucks are the example of what a professional setup truly looks like. Have faith, be smart, invest.
