Window cleaning

And all those windows have to be cleaned. Termes of employment for window cleaner's have changed lately. They are not allowed to use ladders anymore everywhere but have to use mechanical fork-lift trucks.
But I think those are not always possible, when you put one along a canal you block the road for quite some time and you will hear a loud concert of horns.

  2. It seems like the expense of those forklift trucks would a burden for the window washing companies!?

    I think The Netherlands has the cleanest windows in the world.

  5. The ladders certainly look easier to manage, but I guess there's the danger of them moving, a problem indeed!

  6. Ze vinden steeds wel nieuwe regeltjes zonder er bij na te denken dat het wel eens niet anders kan. Die grote apparaten kan je echt niet kwijt op die grachten en in de smalle straten.

  8. So you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. These buildings don't allow scaffolding to be hung from the top on cables. Burt it is an interesting scene.
