Here's something people don't think about until they're staring at it: plowing doesn't make snow disappear. It just moves it into a pile somewhere on your property. And after a few storms, that pile can become a bigger nuisance than the original snowfall — a frozen mountain eating your parking, blocking your view, or sitting right where you need to be.
Plowing and pile removal are two different jobs. The plow clears the surface fast; it doesn't haul anything away. So if the piles left behind have become the problem on your property in Northwest Ithaca, that's a separate, usually affordable fix — and it's one a lot of people don't realize they can just call and take care of.
