Just got into the business, working for a commercial company now in St. Louis to learn the ends and odds, i eventually want to start my own company one day. Thanks for the great advice.
Hmm idk, I'd have to disagree. Carpet cleaning is not "hard work" compared to other manual labor service lines of work. Yes, it requires commitment and sweat but it is far from being "hard work". Plus you'd imagine if you actually wanted to start a carpet cleaner business it must be because you like it even slightly. And on the note about becoming "rich". Rich means different things to different people. I left a corporate job where I was a chemist making $30K in bonuses alone, but it was not rewarding at all. It was just money. It took 3 years to establish a solid clientele in Los Angeles, and now 6 years into it, I average $180K take home after all expenses are paid. Only 2 vans, and 1 employee. We work no more than 6 hours a day, 5 days a week. Yes, I know many carpet cleaners who work 50+ hours a week and make half of what I make, but they also charge $50 for an entire house. Know your worth and dedicate yourself to your business. Carpet cleaning is a cash cow.
Love how you effortlessly move through your video as you explain how much hard work it takes to get there Awesome Just invested in a top end portable I am otherwise employed 1st job is local 25000 sq ft public building I go in while they are not open so far my reality is 33 hours on the clock to cover 12000 square feet At $22 per hour And I am excited to show back up Thanks for your heads up video
C & N Cleaning Services I have been their cleaning guy for well over a decade - The carpets have not been cleaned in well over a decade - No exaggeration - It took some doing and risk just to procure this opportunity- And I have been there for over a decade - Your points are well taken - Thank you
Great advice! I am just starting out myself and am keeping my full time job. I would like for it to take off to where it can eventually be my full time job. Hopefully within a year.
i started in 2010 and sold all my stuff by end of 2012, i had a portable and it will kick your ass loading , unloading , setting it up , putting it back, its not easy
Way harder than construction job? you got to be kidding me. Loading offloading the portable is so much stronger than working outside under the sun, breaking concrete, etc? This is a joke.
I dont usually move furniture. In this video, this is a vacant rental unit that was already emptied out. I will move small items like nightstands, end tables, etc. If a customer wants done under a bed or dresser, then they need to get it out the way.
It definitely can be. You have to keep that in mind when choosing Wands, developing your techniques, setting up your van. There's a lot of repetitive motion that can cause injury. Like any physical job, have to to aware of it and stay in good shape

Is it a physical hard job, I weight alot though?
i started in 2010 and sold all my stuff by end of 2012, i had a portable and it will kick your ass loading , unloading , setting it up , putting it back, its not easy
It's definitely not easy
i dont think most people realize that @@CNCleaningServices
Definitely not rich. I enjoy my work. I just subscribed. Pretty good advice. 👍👍👍
Great video!
Been carpet cleaning for 6 years and I will tell you it is the hardest job iv ever had physically. Way harder then any construction job
Can you explain why it’s so hard?
well if u work alone ,you do it all, @@ericdelk7769
Way harder than construction job? you got to be kidding me. Loading offloading the portable is so much stronger than working outside under the sun, breaking concrete, etc? This is a joke.
Do you have to move everything out of the room or does the customer?
I dont usually move furniture. In this video, this is a vacant rental unit that was already emptied out. I will move small items like nightstands, end tables, etc. If a customer wants done under a bed or dresser, then they need to get it out the way.
Is carpet cleaning hard on the body? , I want to work for someone
It definitely can be. You have to keep that in mind when choosing Wands, developing your techniques, setting up your van. There's a lot of repetitive motion that can cause injury. Like any physical job, have to to aware of it and stay in good shape
I'm also an engineer. And not looking to be rich. I'm sure its a lot of truth shared in this video, but a little discouraging
No I don’t want to b a carpet cleaner¿ why is this an advert...
I guess the algorithm doesn't always get it right, I hope you still enjoy the cleaning videos
you can get rich off carpet cleaning, it depends how you think about it...
You can absolutely live a wonderful lifestyle as a carpet cleaner.
why isn't the money there though? I can easily make an engineer's wage
