Can anyone recommend a snowplowing service that can handle a steep driveway in Banner Elk? Private messages are fine if recommendations aren't allowed on here. We have up to a 22% grade in one spot and it has proven challenging to find someone who can clear it!

I'm checking on contact info for the folks who do our development near Tynecastle. Will send private message when I get it.

There are a lot of private individuals who contract plow during the winter in addition to the Landscapers in the area. 22% is pretty steep, but I don't see any reason why a 4x4 truck with chains wouldn't be able to plow even the steepest drives, and that's exactly what I see some people doing during the heavy snows. Honestly, the marginal snows (Less than 6 inches or so) are the biggest problem for the guys who chain, because you can't run chains on wet pavement (for very long, anyway), and the constant chain/unchain is a bit impractical when you're plowing for money.
