Where I plow

Country laneways within about 20 minutes of Orangeville. The map is a sketch, not a survey: if your road is close to the line, ask and I'll tell you straight.

Sketch map of the plowing route around OrangevilleOrangeville at the centre. Towns on the route sit within about 20 minutes: Camilla, Mono Centre, Hockley Village, Mono Mills, Caledon Village, Alton, Laurel and Marsville. Near the edge: Waldemar, Grand Valley, Hillsburgh, Orton, Cataract and Belfountain.

Near the route

I take a few of these when they sit on the way to somewhere I already plow.

Not because they're bad laneways, but because 25 minutes each way means someone else waits.

The roads I work

Highway 10 north through Camilla toward Primrose, Highway 9 and Airport Road out to Mono Mills and Hockley, County Road 109 west toward Laurel and Marsville, and Highway 10 south to Caledon Village and Alton. The sideroads and lines off those are the heart of the route.

Why so tight? Between laneways a plow truck earns nothing. Every extra ten minutes of driving is ten minutes later for the last person on the list. A small route is how overnight snow usually gets cleared before the morning commute.
