So the holiday carpet cleaning rush is not a strong or maybe even not a real phenomena. Customers say "you must be really busy with the holidays coming up," so I was lead to believe that there is a definite pre-holiday rush for carpet cleaning. Maybe it's not so. I guess I've got to have something else to fill the winter gap.
The Spring rush is real though. I can vouch for that.
Late Summer into early fall I couldnt keep up.I was also thinking the holidays would give a little spike upwards. Not the case at all. I have a small commercial base that is keeping me semi busy. (Theater, 2 prop mgt companies) the larger mgt company shares facilities with another local agency and today I am cleaning their kitchen, dining room and storage areas for 300.00 Not great money but enough to keep the wolves away
