I've got a new customer and I want to share it. Its a chain of title loan stores in my humble town.

When they repo a car the customer has a chance to get it out of hock. It not then the car goes to auction. Thats where I come in.

The auctions are once a week so I start the morning of the auction when the cars are moved to the auction property. It can keep me busy all day long and I don't use any fuel other than my generator. They don't pay as much but then making the cars look better for the auction is as easy as a basic wash and vac. They don't expect or need the normal level of preparation like a soccor moms vehicle would get.

The store manager tells me January and February are busy for them so it will help me during this slower time of year with many of my customers recovering from Christmas overspending.

Try your local title loan stores and good luck.
 
Interesting, I had no idea they even repossessed the vehicles at that type of business. They don't seem to have them hanging around the business location, must have a storage facility. I guess a bunch of repo'd cars sitting on the lot would be bad for business. ;)

They lock the cars up in a location a few miles away from there office. They do that to keep them hidden from the people they were repo'd from.

One of the smaller independant title loan places I work for actually do store their cars in the parking lot right out fromt. I clean the cars right were they sit and they put a for sale sign in them.
 
Thats great will have to look into that!
 
It still makes me some additional money each week. I did three cars this past Thursday. They were nasty but I didn't have to do a great job on them. They want them vacuumed, wiped down and clean the windows. I wash the outside with a long handle brush and no drying. It took 2 hours for all three at $25 each. Thats averaging $37.50/hour. It works for me and they are happy.
 
mpm that would work for me to!!!! Thanks for the info:buffing:
