A storm that begins at nine in the evening is not done with you at three in the morning, and everyone in Wallkill who has waited on a plow knows the difference between a truck that comes back and one that does not. Loyal Landscaping, LLC works the long half of the night — first pass to keep the lane open, second pass when the wind fills it again, then the apron and the walk before daylight. Cold seeps through the cab, the radio talks about the next band, and the driveway goes from buried to usable one push at a time. It is a small promise, kept in the dark, over and over. Snow removal for homes and lots around the hamlet.
