How do we determine our snow removal management fees?
Snow Management is a risky business. The costs involved in snow removal options involve many factors. We have labor, equipment, gas and de-icing products. In addition there are hefty insurance requirements that are costly to be able to provide the assurance to our customers.
What is best trigger rate for your property?
Most clients will ask us what trigger rate is best for their property. Most commercial businesses that have continuous customers and employees along with hospitals and nursing homes require a zero tolerance service. We often try to explain to our customers that 2 inches of snow can bring many additional variables including a layer of ice underneath that can take a longer time for removal. 1 inch accumulation and zero tolerance are most requested and most advised for industry standards.
What is the best de-icer for your property?
In todays “earth friendly” environment we have been receiving more requests for a non-corrosive, pet friendly type de-icer. We offer all options available from rock salt to Euria. Rock salt is what you will typically see in your shopping mall center. Calcium Chloride salt works down to extremely low temperatures with a melting agent. A big threat to a pet is ingesting salt product from Rock Salt. Because of this with the help of Veterinarians is a Pet Friendly Salt agent we offer that is effective at temperatures as low -15°F
