March is the tricky month in Freeport: a wet snow that comes down like poured concrete, melts off the hill streets by noon and freezes back into glass after dark. Ron Lender Tree & Landscape handles snow removal through that whole stretch, plowing, clearing walks and steps, and salting when the thaw turns treacherous. Heavy late-season snow is the hardest kind to move, and the slopes above Little Cub Creek do not forgive a lot that was only cleared halfway. Getting down to pavement ahead of the refreeze is the only version of the job worth doing. When it goes right nobody slips and nobody notices, which is precisely the goal.
