Time for fuel, second breakfast, then back to the Forrest/bedard area.

03/16/2026

Unfortunately folks two rigs blew hoses that require a shop to fix. I will get to you as soon as possible. Currently heading toward time travellers , then black bay/rantz, then finish with base. (Ya can do all the maintenance in the world but sometimes hydraulic lines just bust)

02/10/2026

Unfortunately we are now down a tractor. We will get to clearing with the remainder of equipment but appreciate your patience.

02/07/2026

Well the rigs were whining during start up this morning but we are out and about. Unfortunately my snow blower is broken but I’ll still be able to clear with the pusher….. will just take a bit of time.

Have a good day folks, stay warm!!

It is with the greatest of “happiness” that I bow down to the “greatest driver ever” who recovered me from a ditch. Apparently i go to far in on bank blow back days. Normally i would rather shovel to the point of exhaustion/heart attack prior to asking for help, BUT LUCKY ME, Owen was right beside me in the other rig…………. Thank you Owen, without you I would clearly be lost. You are the wind beneath my wings, the Maurice to my king Julien, the brain to my pinky…… (if you don’t understand the references you are most likely far more mature than I).

I fear living this down will take some time

We are out and about today blowing banks back so our clients don’t have to do the goose neck stretch while trying to exit their driveways.

Additionally some training on a more powerful rig for our members.

I doubt we will get to everyone today but we will be out tomorrow as well. Ultimately, bank blow back is on a as absolutely needed and or when our schedule allows basis.

Good morning folks. There is a fair amount of heavy snow on top of the ice from yesterday, please travel with care today if you need to move at all.

County plows are out, the highway is pretty clear and secondary routes are getting see to now.

As a reminder for our clients, we complete our route and then back track that same route (just in case the plow goes by after we’ve been to your place). If, for whatever reason the plow goes past after we have already back tracked, just know that we will be out tomorrow as well for a clean up/tidy up run due to the amount that has fallen.

Have a good day, it’ll be a busy one for all snow removal company’s.

01/11/2026

Well the snows started. Looks like it’s going to be a decent amount. We will be out tomorrow morning ensuring businesses are cleared and then start residential around 8-830am.

The snow is forecasted to keep coming down until Monday so we will also be out Monday morning and possible Tuesday for clean up as required.

12/27/2025

Well the cold made start up a bit slower today but we are now both up and running and tackling driveways.
