Jordan Carter

Jordan Carter spent twelve years buying and managing cleaning equipment fleets for commercial janitorial contractors across the Midwest, handling everything from single-machine purchases to 40-unit rollouts. He has personally specced, negotiated, and signed off on walk-behind and ride-on scrubbers, industrial sweepers, carpet extractors, and pressure washing rigs from most major manufacturers. At BuyFromBest he writes the buying guides, cost breakdowns, and head-to-head comparisons — focused on what a machine actually costs to own over five years, not just the sticker price. He is especially interested in the gap between what manufacturers claim and what facility managers report after eighteen months of real use.

Covers: commercial cleaning equipment purchasing, cost of ownership analysis, fleet budgeting, leasing versus buying, equipment comparisons
