What Size Floor Scrubber Do You Actually Need?

One of the biggest mistakes we see is businesses buying a machine that’s either too small (wasting labor hours every week)… or too large (overspending on equipment they don’t need).

We just published a simple square footage guide that breaks it down clearly:

✔ Under 5,000 sq ft
✔ 5,000–15,000 sq ft
✔ 15,000–40,000 sq ft
✔ 40,000+ sq ft facilities

If you’re not sure whether a walk-behind or rider scrubber makes more sense for your building, this will help.
