Snow removal in Spruce, Michigan.
Spruce is a rural hamlet on county roads, and its snow work is long drives through woods and lake-road cottages.
Around Spruce
Snow removal for Spruce.
Spruce is a small place with a store, a post office and a township hall on Gillard Road, surrounded by rural forest. The snow work is rural drives, some of them long, and roads the county gets to late. A truck with a Western straight blade opens them, back-drags off the garage door and leaves marked edges so the blade stays on the gravel.
Seasonal owners from around Hubbard Lake should set up service in the fall, because snow contracts are signed before the first push. A BOSS spreader puts salt on a cleared drive. For a lot, the wheel loader with a 16-foot pusher box clears for opening. A spot is never promised, so ask our Alpena line what is open this winter.

Questions
Snow removal in Spruce: questions.
Do you plow long wooded driveways near Spruce?
Yes. Rural drives are welcome, including long ones through the trees. The truck with a Western straight blade opens the drive and back-drags the garage door. Contracts are signed before the first push, so set it up in the fall.
Can a seasonal place near Hubbard Lake be plowed and salted?
Yes. Arrange it before the season, tell us how the drive runs and where snow can go, and we build a plan that includes salt from the truck spreader if you want it. Ask what is open this winter.
Do you plow snow in Spruce?
Spruce is in Alcona 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 Spruce?
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 Spruce?
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.
