About Snowbusters Snow Removal

When a storm moves up the Cedar River valley overnight, Snowbusters Snow Removal is often the first thing moving on Elk Run Heights' streets before daylight, headlights cutting through the dark along the bluff roads while most of town is still asleep. The company's routes cover the same small grid of streets that climbs away from the river, driveways set at odd angles to the slope, some banked hard enough that a plow has to work them slow and careful in the dark. Snow off the river tends to fall heavier here than the forecast for Waterloo proper, the valley catching moisture the open bluff top never quite lets go of until well into morning. By the time the sun comes up over the tree line, most of Elk Run Heights' driveways are already cut clean, packed edges lit gold along streets still empty of traffic. The crew works door to door through the town and out along its edges, wherever the river valley's snow lands hardest.
