Being straight about the run down to Monticello
Monticello sits a long way south of the Bluegrass counties we cover every week, and pretending otherwise would only lead to a missed delivery. A Monticello order is planned ahead as far-edge service rather than promised for the next morning, and we say that on the first call instead of after the truck fails to appear. Anyone booking a Monticello job should give us several days of notice so the run can be scheduled properly around the rest of the week.
Once a Monticello rental is on the books we hold a fixed service day for it, which is the only sensible way to run a stop that far out. A longer Monticello booking works better for everyone than a single weekend drop, because the trip down is the same either way.
Marina season and lake ramps around Monticello
The Lake Cumberland shoreline below Monticello runs on a marina season that starts in spring and ends with the fall haul-out. A Monticello marina or ramp project wants the unit on the gravel above the waterline, because a dock or a launch apron will not carry a service truck.
Lake levels move a good deal through the Monticello season, and what is dry ground in August is under water in a wet May. We set Monticello placements well above the current line rather than trusting the level to hold.
Courthouse square, farm ground and Monticello town work
Monticello is a working county seat with a courthouse square, a school system and farm ground behind it. A Monticello downtown contract wants a discreet placement in the alley rather than out on the square frontage.
Farm builds and barn work around Monticello take a standard unit at the top of the stone lane, well off any headland that ruts. Nothing runs Sunday, so a Saturday event in Monticello goes on the books with a Monday pickup.
