Ladders will come in handy if you take on jobs that have a second story. Since many business are going to have windows that are taller than you are you will need to have a ladder to reach the higher portions of the windows or a second story.

Another item that you will need is going to be some towels to ensure that your squeegee is dry each time you go to use it. Towels can be multi-purpose in this line of work and will help you out with many tasks. Some of the tasks that they will help you with include wiping off your squeegee, but they can also be used to help you clean up the corners of the windows.
