I ended up getting a washer & dryer from an appliance place in Leesburg. They were happy to set everything up, including the attachment to the dryer. The only downside is getting them to answer the phone or return phone calls, it takes a while.

I don't even want to talk about lawn service. I either have to chase them down to mow the lawn or ask them to come back to mow what they missed.

Handymen are another story, a lot of no shows and no follow ups as to what ever happened to them. One handyman was doing work in the bathroom and removed the toilet. He broke the toilet... Live and learn I should have called a plumber not a handyman. I didn't realize it at the time.
There are good handymen and lawn service companies here but takes awhile to find them. Ask your neighbors
