I have been asked to provide a bid for weekly cleaning on a small fleet. There are five tanker trucks-a couple of different sizes(2500-3500 gal), company van, a tractor, a few pickups, and a trailer. The company cleans grease traps so the tanker trucks get pretty.... well, greasy. This was all over the phone at this point so I have not seen the trucks yet.
I've put out a few bids on other jobs and had no luck yet, I'd like to get this work and am not sure how to put the bid together, since I don't have any experience to go from.
It was suggested that I use overhead and then add what I want to make, unfortunately since I don't have any steady work, to determine that at this point. I'm looking for a ballpark, hell even just the parking lot would do, on what is common.
I'm also not sure what degree of clean they are looking for. I want to be ahead of the game when I talk with them and be ready to offer a couple of different options. The person that I spoke to (back door approach to marketing in play here got this started) said they thought another option they were looking at would be $45 to $60 range on the tankers at a truckwash. The drivers would drive quite a ways to do this, so there's a build in selling point for me in fuel and labor costs to the company.
Any help would be appreciated. Since I haven't been able to go watch Larry and his 2steppin', I'll be brushing when needed here
THANKS,
