We have over 35 employees and 30 trucks capable of maintaining any size property, from residential driveways, to large commercial lots and shopping plazas. We have a proven track record of successfully maintaining all sizes of properties with plows/pushers attached to front end loaders, dump trucks, and support trucks, as well as Bobcats skid-steers and ride-on snow-throwers for smaller areas and walkways. We also have dedicated snow-blowing and shoveling crews to support our plowing crews.

We have maintained properties ranging from Cooley Dickinson Hospital, The Riverdale Shops, Holyoke Crossing, The Longmeadow Shops to Coca-Cola and ISO of New England, and will be working again with some very large properties for the next few seasons as well. Our experience over the last 30 years helps us maintain a clean track record to minimize damage caused by maintaining properties during winter precipitation with Safety First always in mind. We require our operators to maintain up-to-date with all training and licenses, including DOT and OSHA-certifications. Our operators are always mindful of their surroundings during low-visibility events.

Not only do we monitor air temperature, we monitor all weather conditions including surface temperature for our properties. It can easily be 36 degrees outside with a surface temperature of 24 degrees, which will greatly affect how we manage your property needs on that day.  This is one of the ways we maintain consistent safety for your residents, employees, and visitors at your property.

Modus Operandi: Always plan for 6”. If we are ready for 6” of snow and ice, we can handle a 12”, 18”, or 24” Nor’easter.

With the wide variety of our high-profile and high-maintenance customers who have heavy foot traffic and operate a 24-hour, 7-day-a-week facility, we use a Magnesium Chloride-based liquid pre-treat solution from Bare Ground Solution for their walkways, and sometimes, driveways and parking areas. This solution is most effective when conditions are dry to begin with and temperatures are below 34 degrees Fahrenheit. It is a liquid application that has been tested and proven to melt up to 3 inches of precipitation and/or ice, yet is also less corrosive than the solutions used on public roads, so it is much safer on hard surfaces and the environment as a whole. We always consider the environmental effects in every service we provide, and Bare Ground Solution helps us try to minimize the frequency and volume of salt and other heavily-corrosive products whenever possible. We even mix our own salt brine with a Non-Hazardous Calcium Chloride liquid treatment to ensure property safety. We refer to this as a “HOT LOAD”.

When snow piles become so large that they’re dangerously obstructing vision or consuming too much space, it becomes necessary to relocate or haul snow off of the property. Our experienced management and operators can help advise you on an affordable solution.
