The biggest problem is working over head, neck and arms fatigue. You would need a tall ladder, a Shop Vac with extra hose. Then make a funnel out of cardboard and duct tape. Attach to Shop Vac hose and use a wide scrapper knife (like used to apply spackel finish on drywall seams). Scrape popcorn off while holding makeshift funnel under the popcorn. The more time you take the less mess. Then just paint the ceilings with a good interior paint. The ceiling will suck a lot of paint but will look just fine afterwards. We had it done up north by friends who are pro painters. They call the finish a "knock off" and looks good.
Have the POPCORN delivered to BILL'S HOUSE. He needs some extra every once in a while.
