We welcome the Second Quarter and April 2011!

It has been a long Winter for many in North America. The signs of Spring are beginning to be seen, though the people in the Northeast section of the USA are not likely laughing on April Fools Day.

  • Opening day of Major League Baseball has transpired

  • We are now on Daylight Savings Time

  • The Vernal Equinox has taken place

  • School children are wearing shorts

  • Spring sports have begun

  • People are heading outside to do exterior work or for recreation

With Spring arriving, people are going to begin to head outside to reach, wash and clean. But, remember, to look up and check for wires, before beginning any cleaning project or any outside activity that could lead to danger. Whether you are in the City or out in Rural Areas, electric line safety is required. You may be working or playing, but Safety First is always smart.



Health and safety should always be on every one's mind, whether working inside or out. With the weather improving, many people will begin working with window washers and water fed poles outside. Remember, DANGER - DO NOT use near nor allow contact with electric wires. NO UTILICE dondequiera cerca, ni permita el contacto con Alambres Electricos - PELIGRO.


Survey the work area, look up and avoid power lines


STAY AWAY FROM THE DANGER ZONE and Stay Alive


Stay Away From All Overhead Power Lines!


Be Smart, Look Up, and Stay Away from all overhead power lines. Good advice, whether you are working on a farm, living in the city and when you are working with window cleaning equipment, including products like the Tucker® Pole Window Washers and Exterior Maintenance Systems.

Weather impacts Tuesday overnight shipments at CID for FedEx


Spring is arriving here in Cedar Rapids (airport - CID) and with all the snow melt during the day; fog has arrived in the evening hours. We received the following e-mail from our Account Executive with FedEx this morning ...


To all:

Our planes did not leave Cedar rapids, Iowa last night due
to fog. Therefore ALL Priority (10:30am) and Standard (3PM) next day air pkgs
will not make service.

The freight did move, just on a truck. I
apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Mother nature has decided
to melt the snow rapidly! Which I am happy about, but unfortunately, this has
caused some pretty dense fog.

Thank You for understanding.

Account Executive
FedEx Services

We want to thank our customers for their understanding and cooperation. We hope today is a good window cleaning day for you and yours!
