Susquehanna Valley Seasonal Services

About Susquehanna Valley Seasonal Services

The Susquehanna lies a few miles east of Mount Wolf, wide and slow, and the air that comes off it in January has a wet edge that turns a light dusting into hard glaze. Susquehanna Valley Seasonal Services works against that: plowing driveways and lots, shoveling steps and walks, spreading salt where the shade keeps ice alive past noon. Storm nights in northern York County start with a slow first pass and end with checks at first light, because river-valley wind likes to drift a drive shut after you've left it open. Nothing about the job is subtle — either the pavement is clear or it isn't. Seeing a black driveway with white fields all around it is the point of the whole long night.
