March along the Green Brook, on the borough's northern edge, is all noise and mud — water up in the low spots, the last gray snow shrinking into the shade on the north side of everything. Midland Landscaping & Tree Service meets South Plainfield on both sides of that line, plowing and salting through winter and then turning to spring cleanups, mowing and trimming as soon as the ground firms up. Winter nights are about routes and timing; a driveway opened at five is worth more than a driveway opened at nine. Summer is about consistency — the same day each week, the same clean line along the walk, the clippings off the drive before the truck pulls away. Handing a property back in better shape than the weather left it covers the whole job description.
