City-smart snow response
City winters in New Athens, 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.
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.
Attention to window wells, planters, and signage bases.
Tight-turn plowing for townhomes and condos.
Docks, freight corridors, and alley access cleared early.
Follow-up sweeps in drifting or shaded areas.
We run quiet where we can, move quickly where we must, and always finish with clean edges and clear entrances. 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.
