Late autumn on the pond at White Cloud, the water goes pewter and the last leaves come down over the dam in a slow drift. Rubbish Runnerz meets that turn of the year head-on — closing out the growing season with mowing, trimming and neat edges, then switching to plows when the first real snow shuts the county down. There is a rhythm to a small town in winter, and a good deal of it rests on somebody having cleared the drive before anyone else is awake. That is the job, and the reward is a walkway you can cross without thinking about it. Snow removal and lawn care in White Cloud and the towns around it.
