Around Vanderbilt
Snow removal for Vanderbilt.
Vanderbilt is the gateway to the Pigeon River Country Forest, with I-75 exit 290 on the west edge of the village and Mill Street running to it. Gas station and store lots on Mill Street are the commercial work here, and the rest is village driveways and long drives out in Corwith Township. Michigan's record low of minus 51 was set in this village in 1934, so winter is no surprise.
A John Deere 644K with a 16-foot pusher box takes the bigger lots; a truck with a Western straight blade does driveways, back-dragging off the garage door and marking the edges. A BOSS spreader lays salt on a cleared surface for ice. Contracts get signed before the first push. Phone Alpena to ask what is open; no spot is promised in advance.

Questions
Snow removal in Vanderbilt: questions.
Do you plow rural drives near the Pigeon River Country Forest?
Rural drives are welcome, including long private ones out of the village. The truck clears the whole drive and the edges are marked. Contracts are signed before the first snow, and we cannot name a spot or a response time until we have talked.
Can store lots near I-75 exit 290 in Vanderbilt get a loader?
A wheel loader with a 16-foot pusher box is the tool for larger lots, with entrance drives and fire lanes kept open. Tell us about the lot on a call to the Alpena or Traverse City line and we will say what is open.
Do you plow snow in Vanderbilt?
Vanderbilt is in Otsego 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 Vanderbilt?
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 Vanderbilt?
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.
