[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whatever company VDOT contracts with for our neighborhood has done an amazing job for 15 years. Regular plowing and I can always get out to the main roads, even early in a storm. Go a couple neighborhoods over and it's a whole different story. Not sure why they allow so much inconsistency, but I sure hope whoever does my street never ever changes. [/quote] Likely there's a labor shortage. I think it is partially explained by increasing social pressure for everyone's kids to go to college rather than do something so unimportant as drive trucks to clear roads. In that case you take the contractors you can get. The trash companies defended poor service these past few years by saying they had labor shortages. My particular company cut us from twice a week to once a week and raised the price. I haven't seen many complaints about missed pickups on NextDoor since they reduced their commitments.[/quote] PP here, and we have American too. Good point about the labor shortage.[/quote]
