Begs to be answered, when
youre starting a Paintless
Dent Repair Business or Auto
Detail business, or Bumper
Repair business.
Each business has its own
requirements for equipment,
and as such will dictate which
vehicle type is best for you
and your business. With that,
lets get to it-
Paintless Dent Removal
This is the easiest business
to transport equipment with,
since the tools are relatively
simple to move around. I have
a long time friend who pushes
dents for Mercedes VPC here
in California and he drives
a Honda civic HB , …that’s
right, a HATCHBACK. He keeps
a few long tools along the
center of the vehicle, but
the remainder of his tools
are in the back trunk area.
It works for him. And he doesn’t
need advertising, so he’s
good to go. Now if you are
looking to get advertising,
I would suggest a Van,…the
Dodge Sprinter for example
is a rolling
billboard, and you can get
multiple calls per week, building
your retail business should
that be a goal for you. And
yes, the traditional truck
works too, but keep in mind
that it is not necessary!
You can letter up the tailgate
and sides, and yes you will
get calls, but gas isn’t
cheap, and driving a truck
isn’t necessary.
It is good for an image when
arriving at a clients location,
whether it be a retail client
or dealer, but as
I said, the work van is probably
best all around.
Auto Detailing
With all of the chemicals,
cleaners etc, there are a
lot of fumes that you do NOT
want to breathe when on the
road. So that narrows things
down a bit. NO Van. And no
car either. You need room
for your supplies and equipment,
so trucks are usually best,
or get a trailer and tow behind
your van or truck.
Bumper Repair
With the chemicals and paints
etc, once again, there are
fumes and things you just
don’t want to breath
(That’s why painters
wear masks). So, truck once
again is a good option, and
van is out. So, truck, or
trailer. That’s it.
So now that you have the vehicle
options, get busy with the
rest of your business so you
can start making MONEY!
