Around Glen Arbor
Snow removal for Glen Arbor.
Glen Arbor is reached by M-22 and M-109, and most of the work around it is driveways: cottage drives, long private drives and homes set back among the trees by Glen Lake. A Western straight blade on the truck clears each one, with the edges marked and the garage door back-dragged. Rural drives are fine.
The few shared and commercial lots near downtown get a John Deere 644K wheel loader with a 16-foot pusher box, cleared for opening, with fire lanes open. Icy spots get salt from the BOSS spreader after the surface is cleared. A snow contract is signed before the first push of the season. Phone first and ask what is open for the winter.

Questions
Snow removal in Glen Arbor: questions.
Do you plow private cottage drives near Glen Arbor?
The truck with the Western straight blade does the driveway and back-drags off the garage door, with the edges marked. Contracts are done before the first push of the season. Call early and ask what is open this winter.
Can a Glen Arbor business lot get a snow contract?
The contract is in place before the first push. Lots are cleared with a wheel loader and a 16-foot pusher box, with entrance drives and fire lanes kept open. A spot or a time is never promised. Call and ask what is open.
Do you plow snow in Glen Arbor?
Glen Arbor is in Leelanau 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 Glen Arbor?
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 Glen Arbor?
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.
