It's probably not ideal to do so, but if
(1) the area is LEVEL, and
(2) free of rocks and sticks,
you should be OK.
Just keep in mind, an inexpensive vinyl pool that's been stored for 4 years may NOT be OK.

Re: preparing area
Even if the pool was stored in doors? Now, I'm really curious to get it out and see what kind of shape it is in. Can you please recommend a place that I can order solar panels and a solar cover?

Re: preparing area
If I remember correctly, they are 24' x 52", round metal frame Intex pool.
Re: preparing area
I found all of the paper work that came along with our pool, but the owner's manual is for round metal frame pool from 10'-24' models. Yikes, I guess the only way to truly know if it is the 24' by 52" deep pool is to take it out of storage. I am about 99.9% sure that it is the 24' one, but it may only be 48" rather than the 52", I remember purchasing it from Sam's Club many years ago.
The owner's manual for the pump is the Krystal Clear Model 635T Filter Pump.

Re: preparing area
I'd recommend getting it out, and running, before buying accessories.
They are probably available quickly, and it would be a bummer to buy them, and then discover that the pool has dry-rotted

Small, gnawing critters seem to love vinyl.
