It looks like we will hit my trigger tonight, and I will need to plow my resi's Christmas morning. Not a problem, I dont mind doing it. We are only gonna get 2-3 inches so its not like its gonna trap people in thier house, but I want them to still recieve timely service.

I would like to start about 5am, and we run a snowblower. I would be done before 8am if I start then. Is that too early for Christmas morning? :help:

kind of hard saying because it really depends on the storm. just dont interrupt anyones christmas morning.
my two cents.

i would think that it being Christmas people would want their stuff to cleaned up even earlier then normal seeing how they may have guests coming to thier houses

holiday or not just do what you feel is the right thing to do, your gonna get as many differant opions on here as there are people on here

Wouldn't it be easier to shovel 2-3"?

If your jobs are small enough to not need a truck/plow, wouldn't it be quieter with a 24" shovel?

prolly take alot longer than 3 hours to finish:cool:
Ahhh. 2-3" of light fluffy Fargo snow would be much quicker with a big sweeping action of a nice 24" snow pusher type shovel. I can beat most blowers on this little light stuff. Add in their load/unload time and your talking a BIG time savings.

Add to that, nobody knows your there. :sleeping:

Merry Christmas Everyone!

We didnt even hit my trigger :(. But Santa gave me a new lot to keep clear:) Got a call last night to open up a 60x140 lot for a building thats for sale and hasnt been done yet this season, and to maintain it. $150 to open, and $50 every 6" to maintain. It sounds like he's got some other places it town I can get too payup Thanks Santa


Have a Great Christmas Everyone!
