Another Grueling Day at the House...

Today Ray worked further on clearing the floors and removing debris. Thanks to our clients (homeowners), we have one dumpster... and it is already full!

We will likely need to keep this dumpster for 1 full month to be able to dump all of the trash and debris around the house, with weekly pick-ups from the trash company.

There is still a lot of trash. Carpet from the living room and family room filled the entire dumpster, already! We really need two dumpsters for two weeks, with a pick-up every week (at least) to clear all of this trash!

We already have another dumpster-full of trash piled next to the dumpster, plus all of the lawn debris trash bags, there is still carpet in one bedroom, more lawn debris & trash in the yard, a huge pile in the dining room, and rubble about the proeprty! Yikes!

I went around the house, identifying trash/debris: pulling loose wallpaper off of walls and anything else that is not going to stay inside the home.

We also cleared the kitchen of the hanging cabinet unit that was obstructing the light from the window in the nook.

Den: the unfortunate room that is blocking the next best light source for the kitchen and unable to become a bedroom because of the lack of a window... Any ideas? For now we will leave it alone and continue work to get the property cleared for rehab (paint walls, floors refinished + clean lawn).

We will still need some help to clear all of this trash and rubble, but time will tell how much! Below: Laundry room (needs work) and Ray cleaning off the house with the hose.
