Oehrlein Lawn Complaint - Unprofessional..Watch Out
PRIOR LAKE, MN, MINNESOTA -- Watch out for these guys... Last winter my neighbor had complained to me several times that the Oehrlein snow removal people were careless and inconsiderate about where they were putting the snow they removed from my property; apparently they were just pushing it into the neighbor’s yard/driveway. Then, the day after a large blizzard (15 inches or so) this winter, I had called them periodically throughout the day to check when they thought they would be in my area- not being pushy or demanding in any way; just asking for their best estimate when they would be there so I could plan my day. Then the lady operating the phone screamed my ear off like a teenage girl throwing a temper tantrum. She then stated that an Oeherlein plow had already been to my property but had left because I made "gestures" and "spoke condescendingly" to them, forcing them to leave. She threatened to drop our account. This was, of course, a complete fabrication; they had not been on my property at all, nor would I make offense gestures or comments towards people who I need to plow my driveway. She did back off this claim and a plow eventually came and did my driveway, but this was a thoroughly unpleasant experience; take your business elsewhere.
