Small engine repair should also top the list as people need their generators serviced before big storms. Getting a following on Angie's List is a great to funnel customers into a business. Hard to get started though.

I probably should've mentioned that the retired ambulance requires a 10' overhead door to get it inside, which is why I mentioned outfitting an "average" vehicle, so it can stay outside, or in a garage if necessary. True, some houses have 10' doors on the garage, but they are few, and far between.

In addition to Angie's list, I have been having excellent results, as of late, with Thumbtack.com

Thank you for all of the suggestions;from this small sampling, it sounds like there is some interest in using this type service. It looks like I may have found my retirement job!
