How Parking Lot Snow Removal Works in Fife, WA
A property manager in Fife deals with a pattern that is easy to underestimate. Big snow is uncommon. The biggest single day since 2005 was 5.7 in, and the area has logged 11 winter storm and heavy snow reports in that time. Recent events include Nov 22, 2010 (Winter Weather), Feb 8, 2014 (Heavy Snow) and Dec 1, 2022 (Winter Weather).
Ice is the more regular problem. Fife sees 27 freezing nights from Oct to Apr and about 3.29 light-snow days a year that need deicing. A thin layer on a lot, drive aisle or entry can cause as much trouble as a plowable storm.
At a managed property, a dispatch can include:
- Plowing drive aisles and parking stalls with a truck or compact track loader
- Hand shoveling of sidewalks, entries and ramps
- Bagged ice melt or bulk salt applied to walking and driving surfaces
Pricing is by the hour. A Ram 3500 plow truck with driver is $250 / hour, and a Ram 5500 plow and spreader truck is $325 / hour. A compact track loader with operator is $175 / hour. A crew member is $110 / person-hour. Bulk salt applied is $300 / ton, and bagged ice melt is $45 / 50 lb bag.
Fife is in zone C, with a $350 trip charge per dispatch. Each dispatch has a 2-hour minimum.
