Christmas lights
I know, I know it's super early but I had this on my mind. Who do you use to have your Christmas lights professionally hung (residential exterior)? Tks!

Re: Christmas lights
Do any of you guys use them? What do these services run?
We contacted a company several years ago to put lights on a tree and they quoted us over 1K.  Needless to say my DH put the kibosh on that. 
ETA: I stand corrected. I asked my DH what we were quoted and it was 3K. LOL

My DH kinda' had the same "fluck that!" position.
FTR, it wasn't some small Christmas tree. It was a 25' evergreen that I thought would look great with C-9s. But not 3K worth. My DH promised me he would rent a cherry picker truck and do it himself, but the tree came down during Sandy.  (I'm not sure if my DH was disappointed or relieved. )

I see lots of landscapers who do this too. Might be worth it to ask them if they do it on the side if you have landscapers.
I know the companies who do it professionally cost more up front bc you buy whatever decorations you want from them and they also store it all for you.
