Affordable Lawn Care & Snow

About Affordable Lawn Care & Snow

The hill on Fourth Street above downtown Coeur d'Alene turns to glass first, most mornings, and that's usually where this crew starts before the streetlights give way to daylight. From there the plow works down toward the lake, driveway by driveway, finishing before the sun catches the windows of North Idaho College across the water. Storms off Lake Coeur d'Alene tend to land heavy and wet rather than dry and powdery, so a driveway cleared at five can need a second pass by nine if the flakes keep coming. The crew salts as it goes, laying a clean line right to the front step instead of leaving a ridge of packed snow at the curb for someone to slip on. There's a plain kind of satisfaction in a scraped concrete apron and a walkway you can cross in slippers, storm still going or not.
