Who We Are

Local Operators, City-Proof Processes

We treat safety as a deliverable. That means spotters in tight lots, cones and stakes to guide plows, and hand-detail teams for steps, ramps, and vestibules.

Communication stays human. You get texts before arrival, updates during heavy bursts, and reports the moment we finish, so you never wonder where your service stands.

Storefronts & Sidewalks

Clean edges, open curb cuts, and salted entries protect customers and reduce slip claims. We sweep, shovel, and melt without blocking foot traffic.

  • Hand-detail on steps and ramps
  • Pet- and plant-considerate options

Residential & Mid-Rise

Residents receive before/after photos, so they know paths are clear before heading out.

Why Choose Us

Speed, Documentation, Care

24/7

Always-available crews for surprise bands and refreeze cycles.

Proof

Eco

Calibrated melt preserves concrete and landscaping while keeping traction.

Equipment checks before roll-out, spare blades on board, and redundant radios keep jobs moving even if something fails. You get continuity without scrambling.

City Detail That Protects People

Apartment and condo entries get special attention: handrails brushed, steps scraped, and melt brushed in evenly to avoid slick patches.

Property managers get quick notes on repeat issues so repairs or tweaks happen before the next storm, shrinking liability further.

Operations That Keep You Open

Every storm triggers a command rhythm: weather desk monitors radar, dispatch assigns routes, crews pre-trip, and communication flows. When cells intensify, we resequence runs and add trucks, keeping your opening times intact.

We respect city living: minimal noise where possible, careful around parked cars, and tidy stack lines that do not block drains or hydrants. Our drivers move slow near pedestrians, and spotters step out when visibility narrows.

City Voices

Our corner store stayed welcoming all winter thanks to their early passes and neat stacking.

City Storm Blueprint

We tune spreaders for each surface: concrete, pavers, ramps, and tile entries need different approaches. Crews receive printed and digital route cards that include photos of your property, reducing guesswork and keeping service consistent even when backup teams step in.

When bands stall over Ottumwa, Iowa, we add crews and resequence runs, prioritizing storefronts, curb cuts, crosswalk approaches, and loading zones. Sidewalk teams loop entries in short cycles, laying melt only where traction demands it to prevent overuse.

After snowfall, we patrol for refreeze at night and pre-dawn, focusing on shaded corridors, stoops, and alley slopes that ice first. We brush entry mats, check handrails, and apply light melt where needed, preventing black ice and keeping insurance risk low.
