Montvale runs right up against the New York line, and the last few blocks of town feel like the end of something — houses, then trees, then a border you would miss if you blinked. Montvale Landscaping, Inc. carries the town's name and works it accordingly: lawns mowed and edged through the season, properties cleaned up spring and fall, snow pushed off and walkways cleared when storms track up the valley. Big lawns near the office parks and small ones on the older streets get the same attention, only at different speeds. Come January the job flips to pavement — blade down, salt spread, driveways opened while it is still dark out. It is a full-calendar way to work in a town that never entirely quiets down.
