I'd love to  lock you in a dam porta pottie,then tip it over.

I don't usually waste my time on people who hide their true identity and hide behind some handle of some sort?

Auto pump-out at customers or at home

sain dump at the gas station near me. free with fill $2 with out. need gas all the time.

You make a lot of $$$ to fill that waste tank  still less than 5 min for emptying at sain dump.

Do you like the town homes with some floors with no ware to dump or fill? Up and down the stairs with the pails Don't spill on the clean carpets. Do you use the customers toilet brush or do you have your own? Move-out don't have them at they just cleaned the $hitter.

A lot of the clean I go to put all there junk in the bathroom so that I can clean, this was no fun with the portable. And how come you run out of water with only 10sf left and if you don't you have 5 gal left to pump out.

I will never give up my portable, but I like my TM better.

Maybe if I had auto fill / dump on my portable it might not be so bad.   

Let see 2 power cords 1 fill hose 1 dump hose 1 vac hose 1 solution hose 1 portables all in the way and the noise How many trips do you make to the truck?

keben - are these IICRC firms really IICRC certified firms? I don't think so. In the YP here there are 6 or more firms that say they are certified but are not. Go to www.iicrc.org and see if they are. I bet they are not, just have there card and think that all they need.

When I used only a portable my min was $59 so no $39 here. now it is $65.

Portables are great, thats how I paid for my TM in ca$h, it was used but worth it 

I used my porty today on an apartment with a Rotovac. 1 fill and 2 trips up and down is all I needed. With the TM 2 trips as well. $65 + GST and $10 tip

I will never use my portable in a house again if I don't have to.

TM Pro's & Con's

Filling with water

Emptying the dirty water

Making more $ per hour

Spending more $ per hour

Working less hours for the same $

Heat  

Noise is outside, you can talk and hear your phone ring

Stairs

Security in buildings

Cost to buy

Gas to run

Van is hot in the summer to be in after cleaning

Hoses are lighter than a porty

Look like a Pro  not to many TM that work out of the family car.

There is no such thing as something that is perfect for everything. next thing I am going to buy is a small spotter. The right tool for the right job saves time, stress and makes you more $$$
