If anyone else on list ever has to take down a pool, look for a local junk collector. When I had to take down ours I found a guy who takes scrap metal to the junk yard. He came cut up my pool, loaded it on his truck and offered me $15 for the metal. There was a lot of aluminum. I would not take his money just glad that I did not have to do anything to get rid of it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Spiro" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 2009 2:48 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] swimming pool inspection
that's a lot of metal to cut and stack. That was a really nice big pool you had.
