A township looks like a grid until you drive it — then it becomes ditch lines and drains, a bend where the county road follows an old fence, a stand of hardwood that shades one yard and no others. DPL Services works Hamilton Township on those terms, mowing open acreage and small yards alike, trimming down to the ditch bank and edging drives that gravel has been quietly widening all summer. Rain here arrives in a hurry and the grass answers within days, so the mowing schedule stays honest. In winter the same flat country lets the wind run, and drifts build across a drive faster than any forecast suggests; plowing then means opening the way out, clearing the walks, and pushing the banks well back for whatever comes next. Cut clean in July, open by morning in January.
