This is a pioneer Eclipse Clean Star 20 walk behind floor scrubber. It features a 20 inch cleaning path and a 12 gallon tank for solution. The machine operates on a 24 volt battery. It comes with 2 cases of brand new pads. We are not sure if the batteries are still working...they were 2 years ago, but now it is just taking up space. We are asking 800.00 or best reasonable offer. The funds will go towards food for our families. ... See MoreSee Less

We have called several times to have our Clynk bags picked up. Apparently Clynk is short handed and is having a difficult time just picking up the overrun clynk buildings. We are hoping to get a pick up this week...THANK YOU ALL for your bottles and cans! ... See MoreSee Less

No problem I love to share my bottles to help people out

Folks can also use your Clynk bags but drop them off at a Clynk location, like at Hannaford at Cooks Corner.

This is the USA where immigrants don't dare leave their houses to go to work. Short drivers & sorters. Not a job Americans want to or WILL do! And it's only going to get harder!
