Around Cheboygan
Snow removal for Cheboygan.
NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals give Cheboygan 87.6 inches of snow a year, less than Petoskey's 123.6 and Gaylord's 140.3. The commercial strip runs along State Street on US-23 through the east side of town, and M-27 brings traffic down Main Street along the river. Past the city limits there are a lot of rural drives.
Lots on State Street and shared plaza lots get the John Deere 644K wheel loader with a 16-foot pusher box, cleared for opening. Rural drives get a truck with a Western straight blade, back-dragged off the garage door. Snow contracts are signed before the first push, and no spot or response time is promised, so call to ask what is open.

Questions
Snow removal in Cheboygan: questions.
How much snow does Cheboygan get compared with Petoskey?
Per NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals, Cheboygan averages 87.6 inches a year and Petoskey 123.6. Cheboygan gets less, but contracts are still signed before the first push, so call ahead to ask what is open this winter.
Do you plow rural drives outside Cheboygan?
A long drive off a county road is fine. A back-drag takes the snow off the garage door and the edges get marked. Call ahead, since contracts are signed before the first push.
Do you plow snow in Cheboygan?
Cheboygan is in Cheboygan County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Contracts get signed before the first push, so call Alpena on (989) 255-5800 and ask what we have open this winter, for a drive or a lot.
When should I sign a snow contract in Cheboygan?
Before the first push. Snow contracts get signed ahead of the season, and that is how your drive or lot is on the route when it starts coming down, not the week after. Call before it snows.
Do you do driveways or only commercial lots around Cheboygan?
Both. Commercial lots get the wheel loader and pusher box. Driveways get a truck with a straight blade. Tell us the drive or the lot and where it is, and we will get back to you with an estimate or a quote.
