Will it cost as much as my mortgage payment? No but seriously, we may have to give you a call, about how much does it cost to dig our driveway out? We are in Cloverfields.

I called at 10:30 this morning, and someone said they'd be out in an hour or so...and now it's 5pm and no one has come. I've called and left messages...is there some way to contact someone about this? I need to know if I should make other arrangements.
I realize you guys are probably really busy...but the sun is going down, and I need to get to work tomorrow.

Where are you located?
Yes, the snow guys are busy. And, I think a lot of them underestimated how much snow there was and how long it would take to clear it.
I have been moving snow since yesterday afternoon with my tractor and a 7 foot bucket. I did a couple driveways for friends. Just a two lane 75 foot drive took me about an hour!! Normally I can just push the snow away. This heavy, deep, and drifted stuff required a lot of bucket dumping.
My own drive and my Son's are about 1000 feet long. Between the two of them I think we spent about 4-5 hours.
Good luck!! Don't split a gut! Work will still be there Tuesday..
Best regards, BC

I hear you bluecrabber, same scenario for me. Long drive that winds through the woods, heavy drifts, tractor was struggling with a 5 foot bucket and a blade. Worked on it 2 hours yesterday, 4 hours today, unburied the beater yard truck and at least cleared the drive to get out. Now I have to work on the front walk, the garage and barn entrances (huge drifts) so I can actually get a good 4x4 out of one of them.....that was poor planning on my part.

Thanks to the crew of Island Lawncare for a great job clearing my driveway and path to house this afternoon - you must have been swamped by service calls and I was prepared to wait but all was done in a timely and professional manner.

BC - I'm in KI Estates. Ugh, I cannot even imagine how hard it is to move all the snow...I put in a good effort to clear it as best I could with my shovel, but you're right, it's heavy and very hard to move. I guess I was just letting my impatience get the best of me, and the worry that I wouldn't get to work. One of my friends knows someone with Island Lawncare and they said I'm on the list...I just haven't heard or seen from them. I'm keeping my eyes open!

Update - I talked to the one girl at 7pm and she said they'd be here in half an hour...so at 8:25 I called to see if they were okay, and part of the plow is broken and they're welding it.
Can anyone recommend another snow removal company? I feel bad making someone come out with broken equipment at almost 9pm to clear my drive.
Any help would be great! Thanks!
