What happens here
This video details the daily operations of a commercial snow removal and salting crew during a light snowfall event. It covers the preparation of equipment (trucks with plows and spreaders, snow blowers, shovels), the deployment of teams to various locations, and the execution of snow clearing and salting tasks on parking lots and pedestrian walkways, including a train station platform. The crew discusses weather forecasts, equipment checks, and efficient work strategies.

junky toolbox the boys are looking at Frankie's new ramp God dud holy that goes all the ways huh have you even seen it yet Tim no Frankie will you show them it real quick is it voice command no yes Frankie will you show Tim how to use the ramp and then all of a sudden it goes down ho isn't that nice nice and easy walk up there yeah yeah hey you got snow on your boots how is it for walking up

he bought new ones when at the end of the season Frankie shoveling with little Nubs on the end of his shovel just three two three Ines left yeah cuz he just wears them down to nothing but yeah we can get the the snow blower in just perfect at least how are you are you good hey I like it thanks you're looking like a lumberjack now got get it cleaned up a little bit all right uh everybody everybody ready ready to roll out the ram got a full load on she's acting a little like a big giant boat she feels real kind of Loosey Goosey that's all right yeah I don't know camos feels like we could be going out for nothing it looks like it I know I mean it was snowing there for a bit reminded me of the old days it was big FL yeah we had some good snow coming down and then all of a sudden nothing but we still going to go up and give the lot of once over to make sure she's nice oh just just cut right in right there buddy just do that of course look for the truck that's fully loaded with salt and can't stop on a diamond cut in front of them should slam on your brakes at the same time well we're here yeah I guess we're here I I think we just got dry humped by Mother Nature I think we did too oh another touch up but we might as well scrape do it do it in the snowier parts get that cleaned off and then how far you guys go up up see that bench right there and then there's a okay just past that there's another sidewalk I usually go up to that where it kind of keas right there okay and then there's a sidewalk right the front of the sign here and then there's a couple of sidewalks here that that one in the middle and then that second one so we don't go up to that building okay just these two here the diing yep so we got this parking lot the entrance over there this entrance and then see where that silver car is coming out right now we we don't do that up we go up to the right where he's driving now right and then it's these locks right here and all the sidewalk the stairs everything in here all right and uh then there's the platform obviously and then the whole other side we'll see in a second but there's not much to do here we still got a little bit of salt too huh we still got a little bit left over from last time we were well we went one more time since you've been here yeah you went on Saturday night and gave her a little little clean up but we'll throw a little salt down anyway oh we're going to hit it cuz we got more come we got freezing rain coming tonight and then Frankie doesn't even wait to hear about all the sidewalks he's got a shovel he just starts getting right at it he says where we going and I show him he's like yep and he's like there enough talk we already uh plowed real quick before you got here time in it I told you on the phone last time I was like it's not making it through another snowfall but jeez I guess I underestimated our salt yeah I mean the platform for sure up there I can see it but damn it I don't know if it needs to be shoveled but we might as well just go through the motions and shovel it off and we'll lay down some salt and hopefully if we only get a/ inch night we're covered for tomorrow cuz we should be most likely you know temps are in our favor too it's going to suck as if we get an inch or more and then it it'll still be better to plow it off maybe if we get an inch and this salt is just kind of make made into a brine here right now with this wet table we might still be good cuz last time it salted or got at least 3/4 of an inch off from residual salt off Sil hey Luke that can all just go in the grass that's okay nothing then well I guess we'll go check the other side and I guess we'll just it and salt it and call it good yeah we'll get her done um do you call it in I'll call it in right now I think we're I think we're in for it temperature and everything it's just been really mild everything Bert was Bert was looking back to 2019 and he said it was pretty mild we had like a little more than this and then February was a just February was that month when we never left the trucks yeah it pounded us y yep and I remember a couple years before that it pounded us into March I was sitting on sitting in my truck beating on the steering wheel I was so frustrated because I just didn't want to be in the truck anymore Minnesota has a funny way of catching up getting you back for this type of weather hey Tim are you supposed to be missing the bolts in the middle of your plow that's what I asked and it's kind of funny that they both on both sides it's doing the same thing it almost looks like you need a new Cutting Edge ah is there like an inch left is there a little bit but what's funny is is uh I wonder if there's like a plate on the front of that at one time I can't remember it doesn't look like there was nothing yeah but it would have had to come off all it's weird that you lose those I don't think those were on there I remember thinking huh I don't think they were on there either but it almost just kind of looks like it with the circle right there you know yeah but hard to say you know because on this side barely you know it's just a little bit missing so it could just be resting around the edges there you guys want to do you kind of like doing that with your finger you like fingering Them Holes yeah he Li I saw him like was he licking it mil the same stick something through it earlier so there he was we were playing with him already ni C cords cards cards I had it coming Alex ripped that whole harness out one day I did not r that platform we can't film in the platform though yeah we're not going to try to sneak nothing cuz going no cuz when we were doing the class after we were all done remember what the guy said Frankie we were all done with the class you you and I Zach and Luke and yeah the guy's like oh by the way I like your videos oh damn what you could do is set it up right on that fence and get a time lapse of the platform right there I don't see anything wrong with that if you step over the yellow line with a piece of Power Equipment it's a $25,000 F isn't it Alex yeah company and the guy who did the train Class $1,000 F well we're all screwed because we don't have our special on have to 1 in heel on there oh God because that's going to make it less slippery uhoh and then I should gra sh and then on or the salt I got something in my hands at least I got something I got a camera in my hands you you're just walking I was just coming to show these guys you're just useless Alex that's all yeah I'm just lazy this it's a government job right exactly you're totally right yeah sying this is where the cameras go off cuz now I'm going out on the platform so what were you saying this isn't a very good spreader that's okay just I don't think really nothing likes to do this rock Sal if anybody knows of one this was 800 bucks so you wouldn't buy it again I don't I don't know I'm not super impressed with it no ah it kind of smells like vomi and feet in here oh god really yeah think Tim you're so lucky you can't smell no I kind of miss the smell feet cheers is that bad I'm out it open up that door oh I hit the wrong butt I'm not joking when you were saying those people live down here yeah when we came in there all the light bulbs were screwed out okay and then they were sleeping on the floor here and I was standing in a pile of PUK yeah they look surprised sleep you didn't say they look surprised you said they look like they were in a space cam looking at like what the maybe this one will smell better so Tim can't smell and my nose is so sensitive I can smell a fart in church five pews away this one ain't bad this elevator is actually smells like a normal elevator pretty full load of salt now we can't film on the platform but we can film till we get to it right yep so as soon as we get through that door we got to stop you there you go don't say I never did nothing for you
