Rig Input - 08-25-2008, 10:09 AM

I have decided to sell one of my rigs and need some input on how to go about getting rid of it. Everything in the van is for sale(together) except the chemicals and waxes which will stay with me, I am not selling this on the forum rather getting some ideas from some seasoned detailers.


1999 chevy 3/4 ton w/ 156k
6.5hp 2700 PSI Pressure Washer
5.5hp 3500w Generator
115 PSI 10 Gal Air Compressor
5.5hp wet/dry Vac
60 PSI Carpet Extractor
125 Gal Water Tank
100' pressure washer hose
30' extension cord
50' air hose
Rotory+6 pads Orbital+9 pads


Below are some pics remember this is a turn key instant money maker.

Your best bet would be ebay but even then there a good chance it won't sell. I've seen so many turn key rigs (vans & Trailers) come and go without a sale. It would probably be easier to sell the van alone and then sell all the equipment on the detailing forums or ebay.

I totally agreed with TrueDetailer, it would be the best way IMO

Finding someone who has money to sink into a business is tough right now and finding someone who wants to spend it on a detail business is even tougher. Are you giving any accounts with it?

If so you might have to find someone who can buy the van and make payments to you for the rest.

I think you will end up having to do what TrueDetailer and ZoomZoom said, but It wouldn't hurt to try selling it all as one first. Worst thing that can happen is it doesnt sell...then you can always fall back on parting it out like they said. Good Luck! Hope somebody buys it!
