Commercial Snow Removal on the North Shore
Parking lots, walkways and entrances cleared before your doors open.
We've maintained commercial properties in Cook County and Lake County for over a decade. Winter is the same commitment as the rest of the year: your property cleared and safe, without you having to call and ask.
Now booking commercial contracts for the 2026–27 seasonWe're a grounds contractor, not a plow truck
We know the property
We note where the catch basins are, which curbs get clipped, and where piled snow will kill turf come April. All sites are marked with high-visibility stakes to ensure damage free visits.
One company, start to finish
Your property isn't handed off to whichever subcontractor is free that night. One point of contact, one certificate of insurance, one company accountable if something goes wrong.
You reach the owner
A direct line, not a dispatch queue. If something needs attention at 5 a.m., you're talking to the person who can send a truck.
What's included
Parking lots and drive aisles
Plowed to the pavement, with snow relocated if needed, not pushed into the spaces your tenants need.
Walkways, entrances and accessible routes
Cleared and treated first, because that's where slip-and-fall exposure is at risk.
Ice management
Pre-treatment ahead of forecast events where conditions warrant, and applications during and after.
Snow relocation and hauling
When piles outgrow the site we haul them off, rather than let them eat your parking count.
From site walk to service record
Site walk and proposal
We walk the property with you before the season, map plow routes and snow storage, note obstacles and set priority areas. You get a written proposal with defined scope, trigger depth and pricing.
Monitoring
We track forecasts through the season and monitor conditions during events. You don't need to call us when it snows.
Mobilization at trigger depth
Crews mobilize at the trigger depth in your contract, commonly 2″ or 0" tollerance for commercial lots, adjustable to your requirements. Properties that open early are sequenced first.
Clearing sequence
Entrances and accessible routes, then walkways, then drive aisles, then open lot. Salt applied as specified in your contract.
Documentation
Every event logged with date, time in, time out, services performed, material applied and site photos.
Three ways to contract
Seasonal flat rate
One fixed price for the winter, billed in equal monthly installments. Predictable for your budget, with no surprise invoice in a heavy February. Best where certainty matters most.
Per-push
Billed per event at a defined trigger depth. You pay for what falls. Best for properties with flexible budgets and tolerance for variable cost.
Hybrid
A flat base covering a normal season, with defined overage above a snowfall threshold. Splits the weather risk between us.
Salt is billed separately by application in all three structures. We'll tell you which one fits your property and your budget cycle.

What property managers ask
When do you start clearing?
Crews mobilize at the trigger depth set in your contract. For properties that open early, we sequence the route so lots and entrances are cleared before your first arrivals.
What happens if it snows all day?
Continuous-event properties get return passes as needed to keep access open. That's defined in your contract, so there's nothing to negotiate mid-storm.
Do you handle sidewalks and entrances?
Yes. On most commercial properties the walkways and entrances carry the real liability, so they're cleared and treated first.
Do you salt automatically?
We apply salt as conditions require and as your contract specifies. Some clients want pre-treatment ahead of every forecast event; others want it only on request. We set that with you before the season.
Can you take on a property mid-season?
Sometimes. Capacity fills by late fall, so earlier is better — but call and we'll tell you honestly whether we can serve you well.
Where does the snow go when the piles get big?
Storage locations are agreed during the site walk, and we haul off site when piles outgrow them, so they don't take out your parking count or drown your landscape beds.
