Landscapers advertise "snow removal" in the phone book but it's just a
waste of print.

After 24" of snow there aren't too many landscapers looking for new
customers. They're going 24/7 just trying to clear out the customers
they already have.

If you do find a landscaper that isn't busy as hell right now, you
probably don't want him to clear your driveway.

Hell, I doubt if a landscaper could even touch your driveway with a
pickup and blade. He'd just bounce off the snowbank at the end of the
driveway. The farmer would be scooping at that bank for hours just to
get himself off the road. You really need someone with a big 10-
wheeler and a V-plow, or a big tractor and snowblower.

Call your farmer friend and ask him if he knows another farmer with a
cab tractor and a snowblower that might be willing to come dig you
out.
