Some old houses (like mine!) have an exterior pipe that a gutter downspout goes into, that drains to the road. Some have been disconnected. What kind of service person would check out the system?05 Nov 2026 01:51 +0000at://did:plc:harary5azit2gdfmscgu4dcy/app.bsky.feed.post/3mzjqxueafk2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/joanbybike.bsky.social/post/3mzjop5e7rc2iOkay so you know the whole unclaimed property thing? I just got a check for $5 from the state of Oregon for unclaimed property.
