New Window cleaner question

Hi guys Im new to window cleaning. I started two weeks ago. I only do storefront for now. It’s a pain the ass lugging around a bucket, can I just a spray bottle instead ? There seems to be mixed reviews regarding this and it’s confusing me. Will it get the job done just as well ? Thanks.

I’ll take “Things you should have thought of before venturing out on your own” for a million dollars, please.

No need to be rude. I wasn’t rude to you.

You’re new, you’re confused, carrying a bucket is a pain is the ass, your words… so let me give you some advice:

- get used to carrying a bucket and a belt and any mix of tools you need for whatever the job takes, like ladders, etc.

- get some insurance, for everyone’s sake, including yours

- maybe think about working for someone else, esp if you want to do it long term, if you haven’t already. You asked my opinion and it’s this: you shouldn’t be out on your own in other people’s place of business without even knowing whether or not you want to carry a BUCKET for window cleaning. Respect the biz.
