Manila is a working town. As the Daggett County seat it sees steady weekday traffic, and out in Lucerne Valley the hay, alfalfa, and livestock operations don’t stop for winter. Families still need to get to Manila Elementary and Manila High, and ranch lanes still need to be passable.
Manila is a long haul for our crews, reached by heading north on US-191 and over on SR-44. So we keep it simple and honest: Manila customers sign up for a seasonal contract, and we run a planned route through town and the valley every time it snows.
Plowing Manila driveways, small lots, and Lucerne Valley ranch lanes on a seasonal winter route.
De-icer for Manila steps, entries, and walkways where cold nights keep packed snow slick.
Shoveling and blowing out Manila sidewalks, porches, and storefront entries for safer footing.
Raking snow from Manila roofs, barns, and hay sheds as a 38 inch season builds up.
Extra storm passes for Manila contract customers when heavy snow blows in off the reservoir.
Call in the fall. We’ll walk your Manila property, stake lane edges, mark ditches, gates, and cattle guards, and choose spots for snow piles that won’t block a shop door or a stackyard.
Route space this far north is limited. If you’re calling mid winter, we’ll tell you honestly where things stand.
Manila contract customers stay on the route all winter, and we work through stops in order after each storm.
Plows for ranch lanes and lots, spreaders for de-icer, and hand tools for porches, matched to your Manila property.
January lows near 12°F mean ice hangs on, so we treat steps and entries that see the most foot traffic.
Our crews know the drive north through the Basin and over SR-44, and we plan each Manila trip around the weather.
We walk your Manila property, stake lane edges, and mark gates, cattle guards, curbs, and anything a plow could catch.
We add your Manila home, ranch, or business to our valley route and agree on what gets cleared first.
When snow stops, we plow lanes, driveways, and lots, then clear porches, walks, and storefront entries by hand.
We spread de-icer on steps and walkways and look over drift spots and shady corners before driving on.
