[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 1255681, member: 4653"] Here we are told if you don't think you can't get out E.C. it. I guess that's fine (I guess?) for most houses that can be delivered the next day, except I have this one house that is 1 mile off the road and will be impossible to get in and safely out of there until May. 2 years ago I went down there in early April and got stuck. I had to be towed out. No snow anywhere else in the continental US and I get stuck. This particular spot gets absolutely no sun and there was still some ice in the dirt turnaround. Needless to say my tires spun half the truck off the ice and the back wheel got buried in the mud. I tried everything for 30 minutes to get out. This was the most embarrassing phone call I have ever made in my life and the OMS had to ask twice if I really said I was stuck. It was almost 70 degrees when this happened. So, I call this person now and he is more than happy to meet me on the main road to get his parcel. My point is, I think EC is ok for 1 day but if you want to do it on day 2 you should call the number on the package to ask him to meet you half way. I understand we don't have time to call people like this, but its the only way these packages are going to go away. [/QUOTE]
