hey Doug, steamer, nightrider, etc.--ya it's the portable guy lol.
The question is lease or hire? I currently do enough wdr to keep myself busy. All the carpet i do is with a portable myself. Now I know with a little marketing I could keep a tm busy on carpets & flood extraction. Question is? Should I Buy a tm & have to staff it my self or just find some one willing to lease one to my company & keep on marketing my company??????? |

Harvey: I believe this is a question for your account. He will be able to tell you which is the most benifical to you company. If you have the work than get a TM but weather to lease or but depends on your finances and how much of your line of credit you want to tie up. That is where a lease is good. But you still have payments. Maybe try used till you determine your market, than buy new. I think this is a very complex question and I don't know enough about neither your workload nor your finiances to advise you on this issue. Just my opinion. I am sure someone can help just not me. |

you gurys have misinturprited my meaning os lease.
What I mean by lease is have someone buy their own van &lease it on to me for finding the work for them. Lets say for 30% of income of every job I get them. Doesn"t matter to me if iit is new or used as long as it runs when i need it! |

Harvey: Mr. Stremer makes a good point. Subs are very good for overflow, but as our princple tm he also has to make a living. If you have enough with water damage etc. I would suggest you get your very own tm. Than the operator can be doing other things if things are slow. Just my opinion

you can pickup a running used truckmount for 7-8 thousand ,with water damage you will make that back fast buy a good used from a bigger company thats upgrading you want to get one thats been maintained ,dont buy from a one man outfit he is only selling because the truck is a problem
