Snow removal in Ossineke, Michigan.
Ossineke is mostly driveways, cottage drives and rural roads off US-23, and a lot of them run long.
Around Ossineke
Snow removal for Ossineke.
Snow work in Ossineke is residential and rural more than commercial. The town is a small one on a single highway, so what we see are driveways with long runs back from the road, cottage drives, and roads the county gets to late. A truck with a Western straight blade handles those, with a back-drag off the garage door and marked edges so the blade stays off the lawn.
Cottage owners who are away most of the winter should sign up before the season starts, not after the first big storm. Snow contracts are signed before the first push, and we do not promise a spot to anyone who calls late. For business lots in the downtown stretch of US-23, the loader with a 16-foot pusher box keeps entrance drives and the fire lane open. Call our Alpena line to ask what is open.

Questions
Snow removal in Ossineke: questions.
Do you plow long driveways near Ossineke?
Yes. Rural drives are welcome. A truck with a Western straight blade clears the run and back-drags off the garage door. Contracts get signed before the first push, so call our Alpena line early in the season and ask what we have open.
Can you salt a cottage drive in Ossineke?
Yes. A BOSS salt spreader rides on the truck and salt goes down on a cleared surface, never on top of packed snow. Tell us when you ask about a contract that you want ice control along with the plowing, and we will build it into the plan.
Do you plow snow in Ossineke?
Ossineke is in Alpena 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 Ossineke?
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 Ossineke?
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.
