Which have you found to be the most productive for apartments tm or portable? I use a tm but find it hard to get the hoses to the units in the middle of complex how do you handle it?

I use TM and portable, but my TM has no clean water tank. If you want use TM for apartment, better to have a clean water tank for it.

Well if you are working for apartment complexes and the managment companies you have to use a TM or they will not hire you. Or at least that is how it is in my area

Apartments go from a TM anytime you can. Every apt has water carry an adaptor kit that comes on a large keyring has all adapter fittings. Only in extreme situations use porty. I find if I have to resort to a porty I get pissed off. TM to a porty is a drag. Carry long hoses.

It is very hard to pay someone when you are collecting prices like that .
Unless it is you doing the work (owner) .
We do not do a call under 75.00 its just not worth it . I will throw in scothguard
under extreme situation but not under 75.00. My time is  starting to be worth more not only that big companies have a minimal call charge. Travel, gas , advertising, car and business insurance, chemicals, blah blah blah Blah Blah
