Most of the time you need to put something on after you take the dirt off. You could be a painter washing and then painting. Or a deck man wash the deck and then seal it. Or driveway,roof,and so on. Mobile washing service tend to be for tractor trailers and car lots. Good Luck.

I wouldnt rely on that to suppliment my entire income! You would be starving in the Winter Time! As a side business its ok, but, I would get a regular "day job" when times are lean... Or, have other interests that would sell also...(like repair work, or handiman work or some other line of businesss to keep the kids fed well). I wish you well.. Jesse

Both a friend of mine and my son started this business separately, they both do well. My son retired but to keep busy started a lawn service, that built into yard cleaning, tree trimming and yard maintenance. And now, it's pressure washing, decks, mobile homes, siding, semi=trailers and tractors and farm tractors. You wouldn't believe the business. A "keep busy" thing turned into a full time with three men business. A 100K inventory of equipment plus. so, I guess you'd be O.K.

I used to work for an outfit that cleaned tractor trailers when I was in high school. They had a pressure rig with a heater contained on a truck that carried it's own water. Soap injection for cleaning, and an acid solution for the really tough smoke stains. We would also rinse after the wash. By the way, until you get enough regular business to support it, don't give up your day job.
