Common Questions About Our Snow Program
What triggers a dispatch?
Our operations team monitors weather 24/7. Dispatch is triggered automatically when accumulation reaches the threshold specified in your contract — typically 1-2 inches. No phone call needed from you.
How quickly do you respond?
Our standard dispatch target is within 2 hours of trigger conditions. Priority zones (entrances, ADA ramps, loading docks) are cleared first per your site plan.
Do you document every service event?
Yes. Every service event is timestamped, GPS-logged, and photographed. You receive reports via email showing exactly what was done, when, and where.
What happens during a major storm?
During extended events, our crews operate continuously with shift rotations. Your account manager provides real-time updates. Emergency dispatch is available for contract clients 24/7.
Can you handle multiple properties?
Absolutely. We serve portfolio clients with multiple sites across Chicagoland. Portfolio pricing and a single point of contact make managing multiple properties simple.
What contract options do you offer?
We offer seasonal flat-rate contracts, per-push/per-event contracts, and time & materials for large or unpredictable sites. Multi-year options with pricing stability are also available.
