Hiring a snow plowing contractor with the right equipment is important
Key Services Offered by Snow Removal Companies
Plowing: This includes clearing driveways, parking lots, and main roads. Plowing services are often triggered when snow accumulates beyond a certain threshold, such as 2–4 inches.
Salting and Sanding: To prevent ice buildup and ensure safe walking and driving, salt or sand is applied to the plowed areas. This is typically done in tandem with snow plowing.
Sidewalk and Walkway Clearing: Snow removal companies also clear walkways, entrances, and pathways that are used by residents or visitors. This can include salting for icy conditions.
Snow Hauling: If snow piles up and creates obstacles, snow removal companies may offer snow hauling services to physically remove and transport excess snow from the property.
Emergency Response: Many snow removal companies offer 24/7 services for snow and ice control during winter storms.
