You don't really have clear access until after closing, I wouldn't try to cut it to the hour.You should be there when that dumpster is droped (or your worker), lay lumber down on a driveway for the dumpster to sit on, it will scar the surface of the driveway, better set it on the lawn the ruts are easier to fix than gouges in the driveway.

Lasts damn near for ever, puts up with abuse, is an acceptable floor surface in pretty much any room and if you can lay it yourself, the price is not that far off other floorings.

These contaminants form a film over the surface of the water in the boiler.

This means you need to vacuum every single surface that may have fleas, carpets, rugs, couches, chairs, etc.
