The plow driver can pull in on an angle and push the snow sideways off onto her lawn; she doesn't care about how it looks.
Oh - and Syracuse usually gets a bit more snow than Buffalo. They're somehow just not as famous for it!
We have the same situation with my mom. We had one guy that charged $25/plowing. Sometimes he would be out 2-3 times/snowfall. got expensive. Now we have a guy that plows just as needed for $20. we give him a call and he swings by and does it.
