Don't be so sensitive, dotty. There are some serious answers in there, as well as the jokey ones.

[CLEANCARE WC]

just put it in your mouth because full of poop i put it on as a suggestion am new to this game people like you p me off was told to come on here to get advice to me it looks like you think im a srubber if only you new dont think be back again

Dotty were not having a go at you mate, honest. there are ways to start up on  a budget and im sure all of us who have commented here would quite happily help ypu, well i will if your interested in anything i have to say now. the wheely bin system has been covered on here before and snobbery aside its just not really a good idea. a backpack would be a better idea to get started mate.

People put down the thoughts which are imo correct and instead of listening to them you answer with this

you sound like some people at golf club they turn up with best clubs and think they are bees knees looking down on some one thats hired some and when they go to hit the ball they are crap

It doesn't look to me as if you really wanted advice in the first place, because clearly its a terrible idea but rather than listen to the points put forward you compare people wanting to portray a professional image at work, (which we should all be trying to do) to a poser at your golf club, hardly the same is it.

[dotty]

sorry had a bad day bins are for rubish just though would hold lot of water lol

[rosskesava]

Just think. The potential is endless.

You could buy a skip lorry and use the skip as a 'van mount'.

How about a dust cart?

Wheres your bin ?

I been nowhere

No wheres your Wheely Bin ?

No Honestly I has Wheely bin nowhere

[Scoop]

Ok, here's my tuppence worth.

I drag a lot of wheelies about cos I'm a wheelie bin cleaner. Logistics are :

Weight of bin - about 22kg
Volume of bin - 0.33m3
Weight of bin full of water - 352kg (a third of a ton)

BUT it seems to me that you don't need to fill it full. Just a sixth would do to get 2 of those 25 litre barrels you all often talk about.

Main prob is in and out of the van. Most people can manage 25 litres at a go but 50 litres is a lot. Plus the weight of the bin. A barrel will weigh (I'm guessing) next to nothing when it's empty.

So it IS a good idea, which falls victim to it's own success through weight pulling logistics.

Hence in all honesty, and speaking as a bin cleaner who's never cleaned a window - go for barrels  - but ten out of ten for lateral thinking 

[H2GoKent]

What he said, and there's no such thing as a stupid question.

As a budget option you could consider a crop sprayer, my first trolley was a converted one of those, then i used a small submersible pump in a 25 litre drum, that was alright, but in the end an omnitrolley works much better, or a friend of mine used a backpack on a sackbarrow.

Better still commit and go for a sysytem in your van, they don't have to cost thousands. I built mine and it works very well.

[dazmond]

course its a stupid question!get a backpack if your on a low budget and a sack truck and a bungee,a few barrels,DI,pole.sorted.upgrade as you go.
