Glen Mills Snow Removal

About Glen Mills Snow Removal

Valdez sits in a bowl of mountains steep enough that snow can pile past a porch rail before a household notices, and a snow removal outfit here works to a different scale than almost anywhere else in the state. The peaks above town wring astonishing totals out of every Gulf of Alaska storm, and driveways tucked under those slopes need more than a shovel to stay usable through a winter. Glen Mills runs the plow early, cutting back to bare gravel before a second or third dump adds another foot on top of the last. Ravens work the harbor pilings while the trucks work the streets, and somewhere past both, Valdez Glacier holds its ground above the valley. By the time the road opens for the day, the driveway is already a driveway again, not a drift with a mailbox in it.
