Waxman & others, Considering what the new owner had to work with ... I thought he handled the interview with the news media very good!

I have used freightquote.com

I think many of you remember our friend & fellow car wash forum member John Lynn from Whale a Wash who I believe transitioned his car washes into new ownership some time ago?! This was carried by our local Bismarck, ND TV news but the link below might be a bit more thorough...

Greg & others, Not trying to be fear mongering or anything personal against Cryptopay & similar payment systems ... but articles like the following could mean ... at minimum ... be prepared for obsolescence? Bigcityville --- maybe fast enough payback ... maybe not so much in a more rural...

We use I believe a self regulating heat cable for a gutter that had & still could have a problematic thaw=>freeze=>heave small 20' length-wise metal roof. I have never just left it on auto control below +10° or so because of fear of too high of an electric bill from it. When it comes to you...

We have vehicles at our car wash who put $10 & even a few $20s in our bill acceptors. Our $7 paper tokens are also used. I know for a fact that some single larger vehicles have spent over $40 so I am not sure cc-phone is the only key there. I do get the advantage of immediate STOP with...

My dad when I first started because he did not want to excessively reward the trash hauler ... he actually had me as a young buck make a trip to the dump grounds with our small covered trailer ... gasoline was much cheaper then. Long story short ... my time ... flat tires on the dump ... & what...

Admittedly, everyone's experience is somewhat different. I have mentioned it before ... the more support for availability of higher denomination coins (dollar coins & beyond) the more leverage for even the most die hard cc-phone acceptance operators will have when it comes to mitigating...

I'm am OK if someone wants to set me straight on the following: I can't help but think that somehow big oil companies with car washes might play a role in that they specifically are being taken care of "electronic cc-phone wise" & some of the "not as big of car wash owners" are being a bit...

It seems like it could provide a bit of healthy tension protection ... I am sure it could be misused by some though. That is why with all the property damage reported by members on this forum it might have crossed your radar...

Debra, Our revenue is slightly up. Explanation it seems could be the effects of brand new competition with brand new everything (including CC acceptance) from the previous year possibly is starting to fade a bit. I agree about the effects of the timing of weather ... extended deep freezes...

Your pic shows the relevant items "side view". Not sure if every locality will accept it as their version of a 100% functioning oil-sand separator though like Randy N alluded to.

Did the inspector say something about too little water standing in the pit in proportion to the dirt-mud-sand? That seemed to be a concern by one of our city's inspectors. I wonder if there is "some grandfathering in" when it comes to pit traps? An older former employee who use to lease...

We have had good experience with both Airlift & American Garage Door Supply. Although I do remember recently that one of our locals ordered some "what appears to better plastic-stainless rollers" for our Alaskan Polycarbonate OVD doors. Both being in Minnesota they know first hand the logistics...

KleanRide, Sequoia & others, From our experience a percentage of the perps actually want to go to jail which sometimes is hard to believe. Sigh:cautious: ... possibly that is part of the reason why police in some areas are getting more & more ... less active ... when it comes to property...

Thanks 2Biz for sharing the good experience with the $35 version of the HF ... like I said in hindsight I would not have mentioned the stainless solution that we found for the lesser expensive HF model. Anybody else have a preference for those smaller air filters that also include "water...

Randy, FastLane & others, I have nephew who has his BS degree in electrical-aeronautical degree. We have brainstormed together aplenty ... he actually said there are advantages to using fuses over circuit breakers. Now if I can convince insurance companies to not be so hard :unsure: on me...

Earl & others, That would be tempting for us to upgrade our Sam's Club single denomination. We have been somewhat spoiled by the way our two Standard ChangeMaker three compartment bill sorters have been made reliable by us! There would be a gain from our self service coin car wash coin boxes...

Debra, We closed early at 5 PM on the eve & all day yesterday Christmas Day. That was somewhat of a gift of Christianity ... maybe not financially ... but oh ... the peace & quiet! No alarms or phone notifications .... true happy go lucky state of nirvana-moksha???
