City-smart snow response
City winters in Burbank, IL demand precision: we plow clean lines, shovel every entry, and salt smart so shoppers and commuters stay safe.
We pre-plan alleys, loading zones, and curbside parking so nothing is blocked.
Our culture is built on respect: clear communication with owners, careful edges near glass and landscaping, and quiet equipment choices for early morning pushes. We keep backup equipment staged within the city to avoid downtime if a machine needs service.
Reflective gear, cones on slick spots, and careful blade height near decorative pavers.
Reports delivered to your inbox for easy forwarding.
Fully insured crews with background checks and ID badges.
We match equipment to the block: compact plows for tight lanes, walk-behind blowers for long sidewalks, and hand crews for stairs and vestibules.
Hand shoveling, broom finish, and pet-safe melt where needed.
Drainage checked so melt runs away from doors and elevators.
Docks, freight corridors, and alley access cleared early.
Pre-treat high-traffic zones, then targeted melt for black-ice patches.
City winters reward planning: we set triggers, map stacking, and assign backups so there is no guesswork when flakes fall. When ice threatens, we adjust blends; when plows push windrows onto your curb, we return to reopen; when temps swing, we sweep again so overnight refreeze does not surprise early commuters.

Cones and markers on active walks
Clear scope with options for zero-tolerance, per-push, or seasonal

Retail owner in Burbank, IL: Customers walked in without dodging slush, and they sent photos before I arrived.
Clinic director in Burbank, IL: ADA ramps were double-checked and photographed.
Resident in Burbank, IL: No plow rash on the curbs and they brushed off windshields near the pile.
We start with a site walk to mark hydrants, drains, curb cuts, and stacking spots, capturing photos for the route book. Before storms we fuel, check blades and edges, and stage melt; during events we send interval updates; after, we sweep again for refreeze on shaded stretches.
We move when your trigger hits or when ice risk demands pre-treat.
We use rubber edges near curbs and pavers, lift blades at transitions, and avoid piling near trees or signage.
We schedule refreeze checks overnight and at dawn.
Every visit comes with photos, timestamps, and melt data.
Our standard is usable, slip-resistant pavementnot just a pass with a plow. We inspect for downspouts draining across walks, shaded black-ice zones, and spots where salt might scar metal thresholds, then adjust blends and techniques. Communication is part of the promise: ETAs before arrival, on-site updates during the storm, and photo proof when we finish.
We protect the streetscape: rubber edges near pavers, cones on wet spots, and broom finishes by glass storefronts. Accessibility matters: ADA ramps, tactile strips, and crosswalk entries get double sweeps; handrails are brushed so grip stays strong; shaded stairs get extra melt during temperature swings. All actions are logged so you have proof for boards, tenants, or insurers.
