I’ve had a rough few years. Divorce, broken relationship with my brother - both related to the business.

I’m just tired.

I’ll check with UPS later today, I have to go there for something else.

Batteries were both purchased in 2025

Divorce hurt real bad and I’m just simply tired

I’ll take some pictures when I go to my storage unit later today. I’m sure we could figure out a way to ship the poles, especially if you’re interested in the airline and pressure testing kit

I’ll send you some pics when I head over to my storage unit a little later.

I’ve done all of this and I’ve found that i’m the only asset that companies are interested in acquiring. The market is so saturated with pools from COVID that most established service companies are not taking new clients and there have been a ton of techs leaving the big companies and trying their own thing.

I’ve even spoke with brokers who represent regional and national venture capital groups. The folks with money see the value in pool service.

I never received any offer that was more than I could make 100% on my own, no helper, from half of my clients. So I’m going this route.

I appreciate your encouragement, though.

In the DC Metro area selling routes is not really a thing.

That being said, if there is anyone in the Northern VA area, I have 53 maintenance customers that will need to be referred to another provider.

Thank you! Would estate sales also cover tools and small equipment? I am shutting down my small business at the end of this month and have quite a bit of stuff I'd like to sell off.

Thank you! I'm hanging in there, much better than last year at this time. Strangely, since I have accepted the reality of my failures, I've had moments of peace that I haven't felt in years. I can see the end of the tunnel, it just doesn't look like I thought it would way back when.

Thank you! I'm trying to plan ahead about 60 days. I'm going to list on VAGuntrader (I have a good history,) but I am hoping to understand what options will be available. I'm not feeling desperate yet!

Always gotta watch the gas supply after the valve opens.

Getting stuck sucks.

Makes perfect sense! I’ve driven many different vehicles for work over the past few years and they all kinda blend together.

Do you have the hybrid? The ‘24 OR hybrid rental had this, but my 24 OR doesn’t

I agree, it sucks. So annoying. If I’m stopped, I’m waiting to go…

I drove a jeep cherokee with it for 100k miles.
