April 8th, 2025 – Tuesday Afternoon
The yard is loaded, the sun is out, and spring is in full swing—which means it’s go time in the softwashing world.
What’s up y’all, Coty here from Lean and Mean Academy, and today I’m giving you a quick walk-around of the latest fleet of trailer and skid builds we've got ready to roll. I haven’t been filming much lately (been slammed), but since we’ve got a bunch of units stacked up and looking pretty, I figured it was time to give you a peek behind the curtain.
From standard softwash trailers to fully outfitted window cleaning systems, we’re building them all. Let’s take a look.
Featured Trailer Builds on the Yard
🔹 6x12 Full Softwash + Window Cleaning Trailer
First up is a 6x12 beast featuring both softwash and window cleaning systems. This trailer includes:
-
A Super 8 system on one hose reel
-
A Sweet 16 softwash setup on another
-
A pressure hose reel in position three
-
Window cleaning system with a reel connected to a waterfed pole setup
-
Welded holders for extension poles
-
Blend manifold to run the Super Pump
-
Fuel tank, battery box, and future-ready dead plate for Smart Stream or upgrades
-
8 GPM belt-driven pressure washer
-
Surface cleaner mounted up front
This one’s headed to an operator running both softwash and window cleaning. It’s a stacked unit, versatile and ready for volume.
🔹 Striker Series: 5x10 Builds for Focused Pros
Next, we’ve got three 5x10 Striker trailers, each tailored for a specific use case.
✅ Striker #1 – Window Cleaning & Softwash Hybrid
-
Softwash setup with Super Pump + Blend Manifold
-
8 GPM pressure washer
-
Window cleaning system + waterfed pole mounts
-
200-gallon water tank
-
All electronics tucked neatly in a dedicated compartment
-
Toolboxes, reels, and fueling setup included
Perfect for the operator running dual services—clean glass and clean siding in one stop.
✅ Striker #2 – With Ladder Rack
This unit has a ladder rack and is built with that clean, compact Striker style:
-
No waterfed pole system
-
Super Pump 16 softwash system
-
Feed, softwash, and pressure reels
-
8 GPM surface cleaner
-
Simple, standard, but 100% capable for core services
This is that “if it were me, this is the one I’d buy” setup. It’s lean, efficient, and ideal if you don’t need the extras like hot water or waterfed poles.
✅ Striker #3 – With Poly Mount & Smart Stream
We’re now phasing out aluminum shelving in favor of our in-house fabricated polymer mounts—and this trailer shows why.
This build includes:
-
Polymer side shelf with proven heat resistance (tested with a full 3-hour 8 GPM run—no damage)
-
Smart Stream mounted with a polymer back plate
-
Softwash, pressure, and feed reels
-
Surface cleaner holder
-
Clean wiring and electronics integration
Yes, the poly holds up. And we’ve tested it in-house, so no guesswork for you.
Equipment Updates + Supply Chain Wins
We’ve been slammed this season—and demand is up. The last thing we were waiting on was ¾" hose, which finally arrived this morning. With that delivery, the crew was able to finish up the last few builds, roll them through QC, and line them up to ship out.
We’ve got more skids in the shop getting wired and plumbed now, and the pipeline is full heading into the second quarter.
A Record Month and a Word to the Wise
March was a record month for us—and April is looking even stronger. If you’re in the game, now’s the time to invest in equipment that works, holds up, and prints money.
Whether you need:
-
Softwash skids or trailers
-
Custom window cleaning rigs
-
Pumps, chem systems, or Smart Stream integration
-
Softwash supplies like chemicals, metering valves, or hoses
We’ve got you covered.
Final Thoughts
Spring is here, business is booming, and this fleet is ready to hit the road. From basic setups to premium dual-service rigs, we’re building systems that help operators win in every region and every niche.
If you need equipment, parts, or guidance—holler at us.
Until next time, stay safe, stay focused, and keep it lean and mean.
