School buses

Tex Star Detail

Formerly TexasTB
Ok, I want to hit up a big daycare around here. Think there is 4 locations here in town. I know for a fact, that one location, has 2 short buses, a van, and 1 or 2 regular size school buses. Maybe a tad shorter, but not much.

Has anyone done buses before?
I am looking to either just do a simple wash and interior clean (quick go through)
or a wash, interior, and 1 step polish/cleaner wax.....

I need to get more info on the quanity of buses and vans they have, but what would you charge for:

-Bus
-Short Bus
-Van

I was thinking maybe.....85/65/45 for just a simple wash/vac???? BTW, they are white

Any heads up would be appreciated.....

(posted this on another forum as well, and was told to up the prices to 100/70/50,which does sound right. Those would be for a wash and vac, to include tire dressing, windows, interior wipe down...)
 
like a school bus or a luxury bus... i would charge way more if you were going to wax it... how do you wash the top of a bus... you think they would have a automated bus wash or something...
 
Tex, About a year ago we had a year long contract cleaning the interior of buses for the local transit authority. they had 3 sizes of buses.

Large: 65.00 Per unit

medium: 55.00 per unit

Small 45.00 per unit


we had a crew of 3 we would knock out 6 buses per night 2 of each unit. The bus company supplied all of the Chemicals. The beauty was the were there about 4 hours. They used an automatic wash system to wash the exteriors.

Do you still do them? Or did they go somewhere cheaper? I think your prices were fair. How often did you do this service?
 
Derek, we would go 3 evenings per week. We no longer service the account the transit workers voted a union in and each job in the shop had to to unionized. ( no outside contractors). it sucked loosing that type of income.
