How far is your furthest job from your home or company address?

how far are you willing to travel for domestic and how far for commercial?

Furthest commercial is 30 minutes, furthest domestic a little less {but it's a biggie}.

not really I have seen this question a few times and it varies as you would expect and generally fizzes out as it is pretty uninteresting and doesn't prove anything useful whatsoever.

sorry just the way it is

Intersting for me anyway finding out how far people travel before its not profitable. Obviously things have to be taken into consideration. i.e. if they live in a built up area or out in the country

45 miles commercial which pays peanuts in comparison to domestics which are approx 13.5miles away.

In reality though, the on glass cleaning pays more per hour in the commercial.

If you pick up some work, say 15 miles away or further, how do you go about pricing up the job?
I wouldn't want to be travelling 30 mins plus just to give a quote?
