Hello everyone,
Well as promised I'm back again with another round of questions and hopefully some real helpful answers. First I want to thank everyone for all of your comments. They have been extremely helpful and I am so appreciative. So my 40 foot container was loaded yesterday and is in transient to St. Croix. Should land by the 23rd?? Keeping my fingers crossed on that one. We are officially on island on the 20th and we need to set up the following services and get quotes.
1. Cleaning ladies or company to do a clean prior to us landing. We have a property manager that can coordinate the access into the house
2. TV and internet set-up!! Very important Very important Very Important - Can we schedule and get this installed prior or do we need to physically be on-island for the install. Also what are my options for these services? Any recommendations on who to go with??
3. Fence contractors - We have 2 dogs that will need an area (dog run) and will need someone to perform this quickly and cheaply on the fence install. any suggestions
I am so so excited to be joining your community on island and look forward to getting involved within the community and on-island wherever I can.
Thanks again for all your advice and guidance.

TV: Get Dish Network, and use Alan DeWolfe of Paradise Satellite http://www.visatguy.com/
Internet: Get Broadband VI http://broadband.vi/
You'll have to contact them to find out about doing any work before you arrive. Since you have a property manager, it's probably do-able.

We needed a fence for our 5 dogs also.
Until we had that in place we used this:

Our fence was built by a very good fence builder:
Fence builder highly recommended.
I still have the wireless fence and it's like new w/ 5 collars if you need it.

Live TV, Sports, News,...The others are good for past episodes, movies and the like but don't carry everything. And they do have subscription fees. I say get both:-)

On weekends calling Dish for support works. We did receive the work order. Glad your signal came right back and is working fine now. Keep us posted.
