Default Need strong bodies

We need to clear off our lanai, including moving a glass table that needed 4 strong guys to move out there in the first place.

Back in California there was a place you could get Day laborers for these types of short jobs. Is there somewhere similar here?

When something like this came up before, I have mused about calling the High School. (???)

Somehow we managed to get her done, the two of us, but I think I am no longer much help in the shoving and lifting team.

Lots of liability--when you become an employer

Try checking with local storage rental places. I found 2 guys to unload a truck through the place on Rolling Acres.

In our neighborhood, the neighbors do it. Just flag down some golf carts.

We have had that happen, did NOT ask but they spotted us.

I love this place.
