Get a couple more estimates..I insulated a couple properties in the fall and it was far more reasonable...I bought material from HD and got machine to blow free...Handyman/1 helper completed task(of course get someone who knows what they're doing...took about 2.5 hours on each property....

The black marker keeps the machine from reading the address makes them handle the mail by hand which seems to get the system updated sooner then the "right" way of doing it.

I couldn't live at the beach because the commute was too far and I could only go to the gym in the evenings when it's so crowded there are no machines available.

I need to install a machine to open and close it.Thanks so much in advance!

Thanks for all of  the suggestions.I'm going to try "After Fire" before I give up and replace the carpet.I did try the ozone machine and it did help but there still is a residual smoke smell when I open the door.It is a really nice carpet with an wonderful cushy pad so I'll try anything.Jeff

How do I find more info during this phone call and what do I say on the answering machine if no one picks up?

They're more like a machine.

Machines will need replacing causing a lot of capex outlay eating profits.
