What you get

What's included

  • Driveway plowing with a 2-inch trigger (we go automatically)
  • Walks and front porch clearing by snowblower or shovel
  • Salt/ice melt application on walks (optional add-on)
  • No phone call required. We just come
  • Service through every event from first snow to spring melt

Process

How we do it

  1. 1.

    Sign up before the season

    We lock in customer routes before Thanksgiving. Sign up earlier and we can guarantee a slot; later in the season we may have to put you on a waitlist if our route is full.

  2. 2.

    Watch the forecast

    When the National Weather Service calls for 2 inches or more, we pre-stage. As soon as it stops accumulating, we start the route.

  3. 3.

    Drive, walk, salt

    Driveway gets plowed (or pushed for smaller drives), walks get blown or shoveled, and salt goes down on hard surfaces if you opted in.

  4. 4.

    We're done before you leave

    We start at 4 a.m. for major events to make sure customers can get out for work. Smaller events get hit during the day.

Seasonal timing

When this service runs

Service runs from the first 2″ event (usually late November or December) through the last meaningful snow (typically March). Seasonal contract pricing: pay one flat fee that covers every event in the season.

Snow Removal: common questions

  • What does seasonal pricing cover?

    Every snow event of 2 inches or more, no per-event billing. If we have a low-snow winter you may feel you overpaid; if we have a brutal one you'll feel you got a steal. Over a few years it averages out and you never have to think about it.

  • What if it snows less than 2 inches?

    Most light dustings clear themselves with foot/tire traffic. If we get a borderline event we'll come anyway. We'd rather over-serve than have you slip on the walk.

  • Can I add salt or just plowing?

    Either. Salt/ice melt is a per-event add-on. Most customers add it for the front walk and porch but not the driveway.

  • How early can I sign up for next winter?

    August. Earlier is better, since every year we have to turn customers away in December because the route is full.

What clients say

Five stars from real customers.

  • Alex actually takes the time to do the job right, which I appreciate. From the first day Alex has been professional and reliable. He treats my yard with care even down to the edging around the fences. The yard looks great with stripes going both ways, and an even uniform cut. Alex takes pride in his work, which seems hard to find these days.

  • We had Alex do some work for us this fall. He did a great job getting rid of the weeds in our rock beds, there were a lot of them. He also trimmed some trees and bushes. He is courteous. He cleaned up and hauled away all the debris. His rates are reasonable as well. So many lawn companies never get back to do the job after you get an estimate. Alex came back two days after he came to see what we wanted done. I would recommend him for whatever lawn and landscaping you want done. I’ve already recommended him to my family and friends.
