We offer services on several types of contract styles. A seasonal contract (fixed cost) basis for clients that have target budgets and wish to operate on a not to exceed budget for the season and simplified billing. A per/inch contract (variable cost) which allows for clients to pay as it snows throughout the winter depending on the number of inches and spreading of deicing materials. Rate work contracts are billed on a per/hour rate for equipment and man labor and per ton for ice control. Managing the risk inherent with snow removal and ice management services encompasses a series of pro-active steps prior to the occurrence of winter events, during actual events, and after events occurrence.

While the right people and proper equipment are crucial to a successful operation, it begins with advanced planning and management control systems. Prior to the winter season, we visit each property to inspect the site, performing a detailed pre-season inspection, photographing key areas, and beginning to lay the foundation for a snow removal plan. We then utilize web-based technology to prepare an image of the site, overlaid with information for the placement of snow piles, priority areas, and special instructions. We ensure that a unique strategy is developed for each property, including the assignment of required equipment, operators, sidewalk personnel, materials, and supervision. This allows all our team members to arrive on site and know what needs to be accomplished. We work diligently to manage your risk, reduce your target budgets & increase our level of service.

We have a proactive approach to ice control, including pre-treatment, water management for refreeze, site monitoring, and post snowfall inspections. We are committed to protecting our environment and are continually seeking improvements in our processes and products.

Many properties require snow to be hauled on site to a snow storage location while others require snow to be removed from the site to maintain safety and adequate parking.

However, we begin hauling during the snow event keeping your property cleaner & safer while reducing your snow removal budgets.

We place flag markers to identify skylights and other projections, provide clear passage to all drains, clear all roof units, vents and gutters paying special attention to drifting snow (parapet and firewalls, penthouses and elevation changes).
Snow Melters are essential when dealing with large storms and extreme weather conditions.

Your facility can remain secure, operational and you can eliminate the hassle of looking for places to pile up snow. You could diversify your business, or simply manage varied snow removal operations more efficiently.
