Do you have one of those neighborhoods where...

[Mikey P]

every home is a retired couple who came from a 5000+ home and scaled down to an 1800- footer but brought all their crap with them?


I cringe every time I see one coming up




and hope they dont catch me having a tantrum when I start knocking over their Little Boy Boy sculptures..

 

[Jim Williams]

Yep. Every single sq. Ft. Of carpet is covered with little Knick knack tables and crap that they have accumulated for 60 years. A block and tabbing nightmare.

And then you give a senior discount

Yep. One reason I rarely block and tab. If they can't get their shit out of my way, it's their fault. I hate those museum wannabe houses

I don’t make a huge issue of moving things.
I just ask
Most everyone says clean around them
Go figure

I live, and work in the retirement Mecca of Canada....
I did a home 2 days ago, when they opened the 2 car garage, there were 3 cars in it...
One Audi sport utility, one convertible Mercedes, and an old 50’s corvette, on a lift, above the Mercedes....
And yes, the home was full of high end crap....

Uh, no.
The bill was 780.....

I went through 3 full sheets of blue blocks....
I don’t mind doing the extra work if the client is willing to pay...

 

[DAT]

Yup. All the time

 

[Papa John]

That would be a no.
People are leaving SF and California.
And the Chinese, living in China, have reduced their USA investments by 60%.

You just described a daily event. You forgot to mention their yappy little dog they think is just so cute and they won't secure it.

That’s what happens when gargantuan shows up to clean

 

[Nomad74]

Macy is great in these situations. She grabs the 1" 1/2 Dev wand, runs in before me, and says, "I'll get these tight spots. You're too fat to fit". Fine with me

 

[Kenny Hayes]

ALL the things you all are describing, all the stuff, the 110 lb.dog,
and the 40lb. long hair cat, is what made Diana and I swear off residential

We put goats on leashes in NC. Last week I had a neighbor call because her duck crapped on a wool rug.

I use to get them all the time. Cleaned a LR-DR one day and the Lady just could not understand why it was going to cost more to move 52 pieces of furniture.
