Well, this is the end, folks. Our last day out on sprinkler blowouts. We currently have 24 on our route split between two machines. Even with that amount, it could take all day to get them done because they are scattered in several different zip codes. Jesse will be working in Boise and Trevor in Middleton, Star, and Meridian.
Below are streets with partial addresses that we have personally removed from our routing and why. This was sent out in an email to everyone yesterday, but posting it here as well since this is the only place we can guarantee it will be seen. There are some email providers that just aren’t worth a crap. Next year there are some providers that will be blocked on our forms because they are extremely unreliable. Yahoo is the worst and one we will be blocking.
- House under renovation/construction, shut off/ boxes inaccessible – 26xx N Hillway Rd, Boise, 83702
- Burst pipe – 20xx N Currant Pl, Boise, 83704
- The main valve has no handle/no backflow – 33xx S Snowflake Way, Boise 83706
If we find any with locked gates, they will be charged a trip charge since it is our last day. The majority of those that had locked gates we have already tried on two other occasions to do the blowout. We will assume they no longer need service and didn’t cancel as expected.
