i keep mine about 4 ft from the end of my pool (33 ft long) the small end rolls in before the big end naturally..when i want to swim, i simply lock the wheels in place..and if i'm doing myself, roll one side back to the end..then the other side..easy as can be. i never leave it over the pool so it's in the way..takes me 3 minutes to roll up, put the white cover on (so bubbles don't melt), 5 bungie cords and i move it out of the way when it's off. love it!

ps- a simple idea that i've done to pull it back onto the pull is i've attached 2 bungee clips (so i made no holes in the cover) with nylon thin ropes attached. they are long enough that i can throw them on the pool deck to the side, i grab them, walk to the end of the pool, and start pulling the cover onto the pool. it makes everything a 1 man job.
