Handyman for Window Repair?


My house has crappy 30 year old windows that are on their last legs. I’m a year or two away from being ready to replace them. For the moment, there are two that need immediate attention — off their tracks and leaking lots of cold air. Any recs on someone who might be able to get them back on track and closed tight?

Getting Rid of TONS of Books


I have something like 50 boxes filled with books that, frankly, most people would not want (e.g., political nonfiction). They are all in my basement and I want to get rid of them. I can’t even carry the boxes up, let alone deal with a stoop sale. The home run would be finding a bookworm who was willing to come take them all. Short of that, I would pay someone to carry them up, load them up, and dispose of them (far too much for recycling). Any thoughts on how to get this done?
