FEBRUARY 16 – SNOW TRACKER

6AM: We continued to track the lake effect band throughout the night. While it dipped into CNY on the radar, very little additional snow made it to the ground. The result was a total accumulation of 1 inch or less in all neighborhoods. With clear skies overhead, we will just turn our attention to the next one. Hope everyone is well!

1AM: Our managers have run through the whole territory and see 1 inch or less across all neighborhoods. So no plowing from the evening snow event. We will be keeping an eye on the lake effect band up north to see if it drops into Central New York later in the morning. Stay tuned!

January 21, partial plow

Hey folks! We drove all over creation trying to find plowable snow. We barely found anything above an inch other than pockets of Baldwinsville. We will be plowing in Baldwinsville in the Village, the 370 Corridor, the River Road Corridor, and Radisson. And will keep our eyes to the skies for everywhere else. Stay warm, friends!

Sunday, January 7 afternoon plow

That snow just keeps trickling in! While some drivers are still cleaning up from our earlier runs, we will plan for another full run early this afternoon, to scrape down driveways that need it, and to push aside the town plow messes. Thanks everyone for your patience!

PAUSE ON CONTRACT ACTIVATIONS

Happy Thanksgiving Week! PLEASE  NOTE: We will be pausing ALL contract activations and quote requests as we prepare for the potential storm, and through any plow event. Please do not call to make these requests until AFTER this potential snowfall. At this time we need to focus on providing quality service to existing customers. Thank you for your understanding!

Sorry, no new quote requests

For 42 years, we have prided ourselves on providing high quality customer service. A key component of this is managing the pace of our growth. Therefore we have halted accepting new quote requests for the 2021-22 season. There is nothing more important to us than providing the best service to our customers we are capable of. Now that we have officially entered our contracted season, we must turn our attention to our existing customers.*

We hope you will consider this standard when you are making your plow-service decision next year, and reach out to us then. Thank you for your understanding!

*TO POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS WITH NON-ACTIVE CONTRACTS: Please turn in your contracts AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Many of our routes are nearing capacity. Thank you!

Staking your driveway

Hi folks! Many of you – presumably after locating your ice scrapers this morning – have inquired about the marking of your driveways in preparation for the approaching winter. Our annual practice is to begin staking driveways the first FULL weekend in November (“FULL” weekend because sometimes that first weekend incorporates Halloween. In the past when we staked before Halloween it resulted in lots of “trip” or treats). So we should be by shortly!

PS – If you have stakes from previous years you’d like to unload, you can place them alongside your driveway and we will collect or re-use them.

Thank you!

ALWAYS HIRING!

We are always on the lookout for good and reliable drivers! If you or someone you know is looking to line up winter work, give us a holler! Great compensation, and a company that appreciates our team. Email Jason directly at [email protected] to discuss!

OH SNOW!

Hey folks! Just so you know, if we get enough snow on the driveways, we will plow it (and we will be sure to plow narrower than usual so as to avoid unnecessary damage to lawns or property). Thanks, and enjoy TODAY!

Sunday, March 7 update

Overnight plowing in Radisson, Clay and Cicero as needed. All other areas saw between 1 and 2.5 inches of fluffy snowfall, which has settled to around 1 inch overnight (and therefore won’t need plowing). Have a nice Sunday!

2/22 Afternoon plow

Howdy gang! We are doing a full-territory plow, starting our routes at Noon (aiming to have you cleaned up by late-afternoon, early-evening). PLEASE NOTE: Driving conditions are extremely treacherous right now. Please be cautious!
