At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for which credit card machine is best for a pressure washing business: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
For most pressure washing businesses we start with the Clover Flex Pocket. For people who sell while moving, the Flex Pocket trades a printer for size: cellular connectivity, a long-lasting battery and digital receipts.
Pressure washing jobs are quick, local and repeatable, with seasonal peaks and neighborhoods where one job brings three more.
Jobs by square footage or surface, with add-ons like sealing and gutter cleaning, and route-based packages.
Card payment at the end of each job, with recurring service billed on file.
A small crew; the owner often takes payment on site.

Installation is a visit, not a shipment: a technician places and tests each device, programs your menu or services with you, connects printers and drawers and practices a full transaction with every person who will use it.
| Role | Device | Why it earns its place |

Pressure washing is a neighborhood business: one clean driveway sells the next three. Keeping a simple customer list with the date of each job lets you offer an annual return visit, and a card on file turns that into a one-tap yearly charge instead of a fresh sales call each spring.
With Merchant Fund Express you deal with the people who set the system up. We come on site, train your team and stay reachable by phone, and our funding side is there if you later need capital or equipment financing.
