Jamesa37 14 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 I'm new to pressure washing (kind of). Done a few jobs for family and friends getting the hang of everything. I think I'm ready to take the next step and get a trailer rig. I was seeing what you guys thought about these set ups from ebay. eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices It's no beast but I think it will be sufficeint for what I need. Please let me know what you think. I appreciate both good and bad opinions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Buddy 14 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 you might want to beef up that hose reel with a cox reel system otherwise i don't see a problem with it...great price to further your position in the industry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamesa37 14 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Yea, that is one question I'm going to talk to the manf. about. The PW puts out 4000psi but the reel is only rated for 3000psi, but yes I would update the reel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TNRoofCleaner 16 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Look at all their items and there are other identical set ups for less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamesa37 14 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Look at all their items and there are other identical set ups for less. I'd be interested in knowing where I could get identical set ups for less at. I've done a good bit of searching and that's the best I've found in that price range. I'm not trying to go all out, just trying to get a good starting rig, but also have the customers take me seriously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIN 21 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 I myself would say it is not such a good deal. You can build that exact setup for half or less. That exact tank you can get from a chemical place for $50. Pressure washer $700 new but I would go on CL and get a used one instead. Trailer am sure can get pretty cheap especially on your side of the world. Get a few tie down straps and WALLA... you got the same setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FLORIN 21 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 3700 PSI Pressure washer also here is one I would jump on and its hot water commercial hot/cold water pressure washer Good luck. P.S. I am not trying to bust your balls.... I just suggest you spend your money elsewhere like marketing or insurance rather than a shiny rig. If you cant get the jobs that rig will stay shiny for along time or at least when you go and put it on Craigslist yourself with a header- "Pressure washing rig for sale...Barely used" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamesa37 14 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 Oh no, I really appreciate the info. Your replies were my reason for asking. I'll take all the advice I can get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TNRoofCleaner 16 Report post Posted May 25, 2010 What I meant was that if you looked at all their items they had the same trailer set up for under 2k LOL Keep an eye out for this type of seller as they will do this all the time. I think it was 1995 or somewhere around there. I just found one of those tanks on Craigslist for $45. Lets see to get the same rig 1. 4 GPM pressure washer (New or used) 2. Hose Reel (undecided) 3. 150' Pressure Hose (Buy new) 4. 100' Garden Hose (don't let the wife know you took it.) 5. Trailer (Buy Used) 6. Tank (buy Used) 7. Don't need the generator.
