About Russell Landscaping - Snow&Ice Management / Parking Lot Sweeping

At three in the morning Big Beaver Road belongs to the plow trucks and their amber lights — the office towers dark, the lots wide and blank and waiting. That is where Russell Landscaping - Snow&Ice Management / Parking Lot Sweeping does its work: clearing commercial drives and parking lots, stacking the piles where they won't blind an exit, spreading salt ahead of the melt-and-refreeze that Michigan performs so faithfully between midnight and dawn. Then in April, when the last of the winter grit lies gray along the curb lines, the sweepers come through and take it away, and asphalt gets to look like asphalt again. A clipper can drop three inches on Troy between shifts; the whole point is that nobody pulling in at seven has to think about it. Open pavement, dry entrances, a swept lot — that is the ambition, repeated night after night until spring.
