drop down house owners. Do you wash your house in the winter?

[JimW]

When I was out this weekend with the wheelers fishing out of the portable the trailer and everything got gunked up. I was thinking how much stuff would get on the drop down (haven't had it on ice yet).

Do you wash it in the winter? Where do you bring it?

I can't think of a self wash here in Duluth that it will fit as I have air conditioner on top.. Mine does have a steel frame so it seems like I should wash a few times and get the salt off it.

I bring mine to a semi truck wash works great let it sit in it over night only because I know the manager

I take mine to a self wash nearby, generally after each trip. I don't have the AC unit on top, just the satellite, so I can see that may cause a problem. Go for the semi-truck wash.

After last weekends trip to URL, my black IC is white on front

Casino neighbors have an RV wash. Gets washed each trip and stored in our heated garage addition.

Any idea what they charge? I hadn't thought of stopping by there.

I hit mine with the garden hose in the driveway once or twice in the winter on a warm day.

It's an aluminum frame, so I don't worry about it much, just do it more for the appearance of the shack than anything.

When I had a steel framed shack I washed it as much as possible, but I don't think it made much of a difference. Steel + Paint + Salt = Bad News Bears.

I will never buy a steel frame again unless it is professionally Rhino lined or galvanized.

Normal car wash rates $1 token gets you 2 minutes I believe. Their hours of operation aren't all that user friendly.

I can't find anywhere to do mine in Brainerd. I wish we had a place with a taller door.

Hawg. The only two places I've found near Brainerd are either at the truck stop over in Motley or the Valvoline Oil change with the car wash up in Nisswa. The Nisswa location, I had to lower my house down a few inches in order to get it inside the door due to the AC unit on top of my IC. But the good thing there is my entire truck and 17RV fish house both fit inside the wash bay. I haven't been to the Montley truck stop but since it's a truck wash, I'm assuming size won't be a problem. Yeah - there's some accumulation pulling it home from those places but at least it gets some of the salt and grime off.
