Hello everyone, I currently own a lawn maintenace/ landscape company in SE michigan and im soon to be attending arizona state in tempe. While i love working for myself doing lawns, there is just no way i can run my lawn business in AZ as i can here. Next spring/summer i will be selling the business. So i was thinking about pressure washing. I have tons of expierience in running the business/marketing/billing/quotes ect. Its just the equipent im not familiar with. So heres my vison:
My current 3/4ton long box chevy with a skid unit, something around 4000psi, 4gpm with hot water and mounted tank (not sure what size, but as big as i can fit and haul safly).
Being in college the rig has to be self contained i.e. no trailers, Ill have my motorcycle for day to day transport.
Do you think this is a powerful enough setup to run a decent business? i dont need a crazy expensive rig with all the best sepcs, but i want something that will get the job done
I know ill need general liabiliy on the business and commerical vehicle ins.
What about licencing in AZ?
As for clients i would like to do stuff like fast food joints, retail stores ect., but if the residential market has higher profit margins id be alright with that aswell.
Also i would like to know about the compition in Tempe/Pheniox/Mesa/Scottsdale area? Is the market too saturated with lowballers and scrubs?
thank you very much in advance for your insight
