State Route 48 follows the Oswego River past Granby, and strung along it are houses, rentals and odd corner lots that all need somebody to keep the grass down. D & D Property Services handles that end of things — regular mowing, trimming and edging, knocking back overgrown ground, and clearing yards out in spring and again after the leaves drop. Some jobs are a simple weekly cut; some are a field that got away from an owner who lives two counties off. Either way the property looks looked-after when the trailer pulls back onto the road. Work runs through Granby, Fulton, Phoenix and the river towns close by.
