Why does the snowplow scrap the sod off of my yard?
When we get snow early in the season (October - December), and the ground isn't frozen, it is very difficult for a plow driver to distinguish where the yard ends and the street starts on streets with no curb and gutter. This is usually only a problem on the first snowfall. Once the streets are plowed, the plow driver has a guide to go by with the windrow of snow from previous snowfalls.
