McKay,
We also service customers downriver in your area, just picked up that route this year. Do you know Paul at P&J, he is based in Taylor.
Scott,
What id the name of your company? We might have crossed pathes at one point.
Glad to see some local guys here too :-)

Yep, I know Paul, I did sub-contracting a couple years ago with him for snow plowing. I still buy some of my salt from him too! His place on Telegraph is about 3 miles from my house. Quite a company he has there!! He is a real good guy and I would refer anybody interested in sub-contracting to him. He treated me well.

I think this week you can cut the crazy lawn with all the hills and I'll cut Daves, nice flat relaxing lawn.

It may be flat, but you barely move on it and it rips the heck out of the ground .. Takes finesse to cut Daves lawn. Not like the wussy Devil house.

Heavenly Green

Never really needed to buy bulk, but have been told to go to Lesco for cheap price on bulk. I know theres one in Livonia I think its on Industrial drive bet Stark and Newberg.

Depending on how big the propertys are you might want to consider sub-contracting. We are going to be subbing out all of our commercials to tru-green this year and they are very friedly to deal with on a sub-contractor level.
Hey steve how spring treating you?....pretty good here. we just picked up American Comunity Insurance....its that property with the huge hills on the SE corner of 7 and haggerty.....i was getting pretty worried about this year but its starting to pick up
Heavenly Green

Eric,
We were at that intersection today looking at that huge hill on the south east corner of the intersection just thinking man that would be fun come sliding down into traffic. Looks like it would be a pain. Its going real good so far we just signed the Hilton Garden Inn at M-14 and Sheldon And about a dozen residentials and its still very early in the game. We are starting clean ups tommaro and still continuing to put out door hangers. Just got my new ez- dumper installed with the cab guard and tarp roller its sweet. Best of luck to ya we'll see ya around you cant miss white fords with green trailers. By May 1st I expect to have both crews running full tilt.

Mow-ed Actually Kid Rock is originally from out in my neck (now) of the woods good ole Romeo, Michigan. Born and raised on the tuff streets of downtown.......... Romeo (about 40 miles from the real mean streets of DETROIT - where I really grew up). If you can survive the eastside of Detroit...... it makes a walk through Iraq look a Sunday in the park.
