Around Elk Rapids
Snow removal for Elk Rapids.
US-31 runs north and south on the east side of the village, and the commercial lots sit off it and around River Street. Plaza and shared lots get the John Deere 644K wheel loader with a 16-foot pusher box, cleared for opening, with fire lanes and entrance drives left open. Stacking goes where you want it.
Homes in and around the village, and lake houses up the side roads toward Elk Lake, get a truck with a Western straight blade and a back-drag off the garage door. Ice gets salt from a BOSS spreader on a cleared surface. Contracts are signed before the first push, so ask now what is open this winter.

Questions
Snow removal in Elk Rapids: questions.
Can I get a snow contract for a lot in Elk Rapids?
A snow contract needs to be signed before the first push. Call our Traverse City line, say where the lot is, and ask what is open this winter. Big-box, plaza and shared lots are loader work. We cannot promise a spot.
Do you clear lake house driveways near Elk Rapids?
Driveways are done with a Western straight blade truck, with a back-drag off the garage door and marked edges. Rural drives are welcome out here. Call to ask what is open this winter, before the first push.
Do you plow snow in Elk Rapids?
Elk Rapids is in Antrim County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Contracts get signed before the first push, so call Traverse City on (231) 944-8752 and ask what we have open this winter, for a drive or a lot.
When should I sign a snow contract in Elk Rapids?
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 Elk Rapids?
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.
