Just say yes and when the time comes you will have either filled that spot if not take them back on but with a first clean price of double.

Not alot you can do really as you know...

Cheers

Had this myself a couple of times and told the customer that i work to a regular schedule and that i dont do seasonal work if i did it would not be worth my while to be in the window cleanig trade and would need to have another venture          DROP EM!!!!!!

Unless it is a quality issue, I don't bother trying to guess a customers reason for cancelling.
Life is too short to put effort into a lost cause.  :D

As I read it they haven't cancelled they have just dropped out for the winter. There are always some customers who do this.
Just say when shall I come back? No need to make it a problem.

I work all year round and that`s it,never let the customer dictate otherwise when word spreads they can have them cleaned when they want you`ll have no work until April.
