Pressure Washing Aircraft Hangers at the Airport
If you are looking for a way to own your own business using a pressure washer or expand your current pressure washing business you might consider cleaning Aircraft Hangers out at the airport. Why Wash Aircraft hangers? For one it can lead to much more work cleaning all sorts of things at airports which is an encapsulated market. Larger airports have terminal buildings, staging areas, parking structures, fuel depots, retaining walls, security vehicles, airport shuttles, rent-a-cars and of course aircraft. If you get a job cleaning a hanger or several you will be seen by others who need services desperately. Customers will be glad to have you wash down their hanger's exterior and power wash with hot water the inside. All spider webs, dust, oil stains, hydraulic fluid spots and flaky paint will disappear. Not only will these hangers look like a clean rooms, they will also smell clean. This keeps bugs and rodents out which can make their homes in engine compartments or wheel wells and cause decay or fire in the aircraft. A hanger is a piece of income property; it's easier to attract high-paying tenants to a clean, well-maintained hanger. If these owners keep their own aircraft in the hanger, their aircraft will stay much cleaner longer. Less corrosion, less animals building nests, less bugs, spiders and generally a more pleasant place to hang out and talk 'airplanes'. Many of our hanger customers for our company, The Aircraft Wash Guys, www.Aircraftwashguys.com have set up pool tables, T.V., carpeting, etc. after cleaning their hangers out thoroughly. You can do this for your customers to and make decent money doing it. You should probably clean out their hangers once every six months or once a year if they well sealed; perhaps on a routine basis, including some janitorial services. Tell you potential customers that all they need to do is give you a time and date and you will be there after they move their plane out or go flying somewhere for four to six hours. Think on this and as always Wash On ! "Lance Winslow" - If you have innovative thoughts and unique perspectives, come think with Lance; www.WorldThinkTank.net/wttbbs
