Coeur D'Alene Snow Services

About Coeur D'Alene Snow Services

Sherman Avenue's brick sidewalks are the first thing downtown Coeur d'Alene shows the day, and Coeur D'Alene Snow Services treats getting every storefront apron clear as its own small deadline, working the strip before the coffee shops unlock their doors. A downtown block asks for a different kind of care than a driveway does — planters and bike racks and narrow gaps between buildings to work around, salt laid down light enough that nobody tracks it across an old storefront floor. Snow off the lake often arrives in low gray bands that can drop an inch an hour for most of a night, which leaves this crew a short, dark window before the street wakes up. Walking Sherman Avenue at seven and finding every entrance dry while the rest of the block is still white is the whole point of starting before anyone else is awake. Storm after storm, that's the stretch this crew has built its route around.
