Can we make sure to have at least one working shop vac in time for the cleaning weekend? Unfortunately someone stole the removable motor for the 16gal 6hp vac donated by justin laser bong (this working unit sells new for $99 if my searching is correct). Ideally the replacement vacuum will not have a removable motor so that it doesn’t get stolen again (although in principle it’s super convenient to be able to shuttle the motor between different base stations rather than a 16 gallon vacuum).
if people can come.on Sunday to support the effort, we can (and have) done it. I believe two cleaning days ago 3 people hauled 2.2 tons of garbage down the stairs. if things are too big/heavy, that’s what we have angle grinders for
Excellent. For past cleaning days I’ve picked it up as early as possible before all the parking along mission street fills up and then filled it with debris.
I’m guessing that you are picking up the truck if you’ve reserved it. Do you need any help with it? What time do you expect to be at NB with the truck, I can meet you at NB to help load up trash.
Ideally we would get as many people as possible to help, since we’re going to be using the stairs.
The last time I rented a u-haul I hit a city bus so i wouldn’t mind if someone else drove. (it was just one mirror, they stick out way farther than I understood). But I can do it, it’s not far. The truck is at the u-haul on Alameda.
I have it reserved fo 8:30, but could do it earlier, i guess that would be a good idea?
Hmm… That’s a lot of extra miles to put on a uhaul. I could reserve on at the bryant location near NB for 7am pickup and go get it myself. What do you think?
