Sidewalk Snow Removal

What This Service Involves

Pedestrian pathways are frequently overlooked in snow events, yet cities carry liability and accessibility obligations for the walkways they own. Our crews clear sidewalks, ADA ramps, transit-stop pads, and building approaches using sidewalk machines and hand crews sized to your inventory. We clear to the pavement and maintain accessible widths so ramps and crossings remain usable for all pedestrians. Work is coordinated with plowing so windrows are not deposited back across cleared walks. Service is logged by location to support your risk-management and accessibility records.
