Navigating Icy Alleys for a Triple-Decker Reno
We got a frantic call from a landlord near Purchase Street right after a hard February freeze. His renovation crew had piled plaster and lath waist-high on the porch because the big national haulers refused to back a truck down the icy, narrow alleyway. The weight was threatening to buckle the old wood flooring, and the city was already eyeing the mess from the street.
I grabbed our single-axle hooklift truck, which lets us squeeze into tight spots that massive cable-hoist trucks can't touch. We chained up the tires and backed slowly past the frozen ruts, dropping a 15-yarder right against the back stairs. The crew loaded it out in three hours, and we hauled that debris away before the inspector could write a ticket.
Manuel put that bin exactly where we needed it when nobody else would even try the driveway.
