Belts are the first thing you must consider when thinking about your belt setup and the tools you carry on hand and while on the job. Belts vary by size and can be adjusted to a person’s waist size. Be sure to read the product description of any belt you purchase for the correct fit. The majority of window cleaning belts available are made of nylon, so they are long-lasting and durable. They usually also include a quick-release buckle for easy on and off. The belt's number of loops will vary from 1-3, depending on the brand. These loops are used to hold your squeegees, towels, cloths, or any other tools needed. If you are looking for an exceptionally high-quality belt, take a look at the Maykker Trident Belt. We carry belts from Ettore, Maykker, Moerman, Pulex, Sorbo, Unger, and more! Once you decide on your belt, the next step is to add your tools. You can shop for your BOAB, or bucket on a belt, holsters, pouches, and much more right here at WCR! Below we will go more in-depth about the accessories to fit onto your belt!

Bucket On A Belts

A Bucket On A Belt (BOAB) allows you to keep your tools organized and at your side for easy access on the job. It also cuts down on having to climb up and down a ladder which will make your job quicker and more efficient, and who doesn't love that?! Buckets on a belt are great for holding different squeegees as well as scrapers, liquids, and other tools.

We carry BOABs from top brands such as Maykker, Moerman, Unger, Ettore, Pulex, and Aztec. Choose from detachable or fixed models. Certain designs can also attach to belt holsters with a quick-release lock. Ultimately though, different brands of buckets on a belt hold different configurations of tools, so make sure you do your research before purchasing. Most BOABs are designed with one large main slot to hold your t-bar and sleeves and a few smaller slots for your squeegees and other accessories. A good rule of thumb is if you are particularly loyal to one brand and have an abundance of their tools, consider buying that brand’s bucket on a belt, as they are designed to accommodate those tools.

An important thing to consider is the way your bucket attaches to your belt. There are a few different clip styles when it comes to buckets on a belt and most popular versions will fit into one of these categories:

Detachable Clip - the male end of the clip will remain on your belt, while the female end of the clip (as well as the bucket itself) can be removed. This benefits window cleaners who want to remove their boab quickly and easily while leaving their tool belt in place. These typically hang lower on your leg. An example of this style would be the Ettore SideKick Holster (Detachable), the Moerman Drywalker Flex or the very popular Aztec Samurai.

Semi-Detachable Clip - The main difference between this style and the detachable clip we referenced above is that both the ends of the clip will stay attached to the bucket when you remove it from your belt. Some window cleaners prefer this so that both clips stay attached and they can't get lost. Taking the entire clip off of the tool belt can also make room for other tools. An example of this would be the Unger Classic Bucket on a Belt or the Unger Ninja Bucket on a Belt.


Slide on With Detachable Clip - Looking to keep your bucket on a belt higher on your leg? Check out this style! This bucket on a belt has a unique clip-on belt system that is unique to the Moerman Bucket on a Belt. Easily slide your bucket on and off your belt with this option as well as detach the hip bucket while leaving the clip on the belt.


Fixed Clip - This hip bucket (as the name suggests) is completely fixed onto your tool belt. It consists of a nylon loop that can only be removed by sliding on and off the loop from the tool belt itself. An example of this style BOAB is the Pulex Tubex Holster (Loop) or the Ettore SideKick Holster with Non-Detachable Clip.
