Business Overview:
MOBILE, TRAILER-BASED BLIND CLEANING BUSINESS FOR SALE
Detroit/Ann Arbor, Michigan. This is a great opportunity to own your own business, and perfect for a pair of owner/operators. This mobile, home- and trailer-based business has very low overhead costs and is very profitable. All you will need to keep the business thriving is insurance, a little advertising, a place to store the trailer, gasoline to get around, some inexpensive cleaning chemicals, and your own time and hard work!
The current owner/operators have been in business for six years. They have been running this as a part-time enterprise and are at a turning point: they can’t keep up with this growing business while only devoting a portion of their time and energies towards it. The business is poised for growth and the market is ripe with untapped opportunities for low-hanging fruit.

Property Features and Assets:
The trailer is well-organized and is equipped with both a heater, A/C, water, and a generator. There are some physical demands inherent with cleaning and repairing blinds, so the ideal owner/operator(s) will be able to climb ladders, and have the physical strength to handle awkward and/or heavy blinds. In addition, blind repairs do require a bit of handyman’s knack, but they are relatively simple once you know how to do them. The owner/operator should be comfortable and skilled at driving a vehicle while pulling a trailer, and a chauffeur's license is necessary.
Set your own hours! Clients are eager to have their blinds cleaned or repaired and are generally happy to accommodate weekday daytime appointments, but your hours are up to you!
