Residential Snow Plowing
If you live in an area where new streets and curbs were put in due to the construction this summer, please inform the person who does your snowplowing that there is a 1 1/2 inch gap between the street and curb which will remain through the winter. This will help them prevent damage to their equipment as well as the new curb.
