Escalator Cleaning - who's doing it?

March 2 2007 at 9:20 PM		 Derek  
anyone?

i see Cimex makes one. what all is involved in this type of work? is it hard? looks like the machine does all the work.

is it profitable? is it easy to find work? is it competitive?

thanx --- Derek.

I'm curious also. We don't have any escalators anywhere within an hour and half radius but when we get one I want to be ready.

Derek,

If I can remember correctly their is some attachments you can get for a Sprint that will do escalator stair cleaning. Obviously I don't (or haven't done any).

I don't think that Sprint could handle escalators. When I used to be a Dist. for Cimex I bought one and it took me 6 months to sell it to a Dept. store in Atlanta that had 6 escalators. They have wire brushes and clean like crazy but there is not a lot of demand for that service. If you have an extra $4000.00 laying around, go for it. Carpet cleaning is much easier.
