i have 2 men for delivery, but the sets are too tall even for 
a full size cargo van, i tell the customer to hire a moving 
company , to bring it in, like the one that delivered the tv 
to them , in the first place.
i am a repair man, not a delivery man, or i would have spent 
more time in a gym.
lol
i just cant do good repair work on the living room floor.
i am lucky to find some problems with a well lit shop full of 
equipment.
it seems no mater how hard the job, if i do it in the home 
they feel it should be cheaper.
by the way, why dont doctors make house calls any more??
Just my thoughts.
