City-smart snow response
City winters in Metropolis, Illinois 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 document every visit with photos and timestamps so you can show tenants, insurers, and city inspectors that you acted fast and kept public paths safe.
We greet tenants and managers with quick updates, not loud engines.
GPS dispatch plus before-and-after photos.
Fully insured crews with background checks and ID badges.
We pre-treat when temps drop, then sweep again after the storm to stop refreeze.
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.
Follow-up sweeps in drifting or shaded areas.
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.

Refreeze patrols on shaded sidewalks and garage ramps

We start with a site walk to mark hydrants, drains, curb cuts, and stacking spots, capturing photos for the route book. We debrief after each storm to tighten the plan for the next one.
We move when your trigger hits or when ice risk demands pre-treat.
We brief crews on each buildings sensitive spots.
We schedule refreeze checks overnight and at dawn.
We store logs so you can retrieve them anytime.
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. You can reach a real person on our storm desk any hour the weather turns.
We keep hydrants, bike racks, and bus stops clear so the block keeps moving. We set stacking zones that preserve sightlines for drivers and pedestrians. After the storm, we walk the site: draining melt away from doors, checking for thin ice near gutters, and tidying pile edges so the block looks cared for.
