Distribution Center Snow Removal

What This Service Involves

Logistics hubs along the I-5 and I-90 corridors run on tight delivery windows that do not pause for weather. We clear trailer courts, drive aisles, and dock approaches wide enough for 53-foot rigs, then treat the ramps and grades where trucks lose traction on wet Cascade snow. Overnight and pre-dawn service is standard because most freight staging here happens before the daytime melt. When a lowland cold snap turns slush into rutted ice, our loaders and heavy plows keep your yard turning instead of gridlocked.

Benefits

Trailer courts and dock approaches kept clear for 53-foot access; Overnight service timed to your freight windows; Traction treatment on ramps and graded approaches; Heavy equipment for rutted, refrozen yard ice; Documented clearing to support carrier and DOT schedules

Our Process

1) Assess yard circulation, dock ramps, and truck grades; 2) Pre-treat approach roads and inclines before snowfall; 3) Plow trailer courts and drive aisles on your dispatch schedule; 4) Sand and de-ice ramps, then confirm turning radii are clear

What Affects the Cost

Size of the trailer yard and number of dock doors; 24-hour operation requiring round-the-clock crews; Grade and incline of truck approaches; Volume of snow needing relocation off circulation paths; Level of de-icing material for heavy axle traffic

Best Time of Year

Peak demand runs December through February when lowland cold snaps ice over yards that stayed wet during the day.
