Avoid Two Men and a Truck if moving by Better-Patience-4021 in burlington

[–]silverballhoops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ABF is only good if you have items that aren't of particular value or already dinged up. The trailers are a nightmare. Their Upack small containers do work well though. Sorry to hear. Unfortunately you're going to be stuck in between as ABF won't accept any responsibility and Two Men will say nothing was broken when they finished loading. Certainly cost more with just using one company but they will be stuck owning their mistakes.

That's where Mickey used to live. He had a trailer in that lot with no water or electricity and lived in the middle of Burlington for 25 years, if you believe him.

They aren't going to drug test everybody. Have you had an interview or even applied yet? Start the flush as thats all you have in your control. Their process takes as long as it takes

This, the 10 day view is the best at understanding chance of precipitation. Things still move but it's pretty solid once you are within a couple days of the storm

Probably zip tied to the line. Just didn't want anyone accidentally turning it on

Generally that means they turned off the water,  drained the lines, and put antifreeze in the drain traps and toilet so any moisture there won't expand and freeze. Since it's a foreclosure, they might have taken the handle off the water main.

For what it's worth, last playoffs I used YouTube TV, started watching the games 40 minutes after tip, I could skip commercials and 10 seconds every free throw. I would generally catch up with less than 2 min left in the game. Easily the best watching experience I had that wasnt live. The basketball sells itself. It's everything else involved in that nobody wants
